Me mga tanong ho ako:
- Ang ibig ho bang sabihin ng naka received ng Invitation to Apply ay me employer na dun?
Ganito rin ho ba un Skill Select?
- Ano ho kaya mas ok - mg file ako ng sariling apply o wait till un brother ko ma settle dun. Dun na sila by next month.
- Architect ho ako pero in almost 20 years of experience magkakaiba ang role pero in line pa rin sa construction, Pwede ko ho ba gamitin un as Architect kahit na 4 years ago pa un last employment ko as one, the recent years I became Quantity Surveyor and Project Coordinator.
- I am 41 and my husband is 51, ma approve pa kaya kami?
Maraming salamat ho sa mga mag re reply.

- this thread is for visa 189/190/489- skilled migrant route.. hindi po employer sponsored.. Invitation to Apply means, you have passed the initial assessment (skills/english), then you will proceed on the next stage of visa processing (medical/police clearance and other verification)..
- SkillSelect is for both routes: Skilled Migrant (those who want to apply on their own), and for Employer Sponsored (those who were selected by employers)..
- Depende po sa total points nyo if you qualify to apply on your own, otherwise you can get additional points for relative sponsorship (your brother) + 5pts.. Anyway, you can start the Skills Assessment/IELTS immediately, medyo months po ito.. pag okay na yan, you can decide whether to apply on your own (if you have 60pts), or get other points (sponsorship)
- You need to chose which occupation can give you the best chance of passing na assessment.. based on history mahirap pumasa ang Architect, so they nominate Archi draftsperson, or kung enough ang work exp nyo, you can nominate QS or Proj Coordinator if they are in the SOL/CSOL..
- please compute/estimate your total EOI points.. that is the starting point..

yes meron pong thread.. but first you need to know what occupation ang gusto nyong ipa-assess..
Example: ACS for IT, CPAA- Accountant, EA-Engineers, VETASSESS/TRA- general occupations..etc..

I am just confused with EA and CDR for Engineers.
May I know what does it mean.
I am an Electronics Engineer working overseas for 3 years.
Ask ko po sana kung mahirap ba maghanap ng work dun after magrant ang visa mo.

@theatut811 - there is a separate thread for nurses.. please browse thru the threads or use the search function located at the upper right side of this forum..
i can tell some info:
- you need to be an AU registered nurse first, before you apply for skillselect as a skilled migrant
- but before you can be an AU RN, you need to pass the assessment+bridging course+IELTS..
- more details on the nurses thread

My occupation is listed under CSOL Sched 2 but I have no sponsor.. (regional/state or relative). Should the EOI come first before I get the needed sponsorship? I'm at a lost since most of the threads I see are about occupations listed under SOL. Can someone please help?

1. submit your EOI, select visa 190 (SS) or Visa 489((Regional Temp), I think you need to select the state as well (please verify)
2. then visit the website of the different states/region immigration website to see which state/region can sponsor you based on your occupation.. check the SNOL- State Nomination Occupation List
3. submit SS application to the state.. they will require your EOI reference number.
4. once your SS application is approved, they will send invititation to apply for your visa (via EOI/Skillselect)..

"The EOI for this subclass will not be considered for an invitation at this time, because according to the client's claims:
The client does not have a skills assessment
The client's English language ability is below the level needed for this visa subclass".
Can anyone please tell me where to have my occupation (financial adviser) assessed?
My occupation is under the NSW SSOL. Is this their skills assessment website? http://www.skillsrecognition.nsw.gov.au/
