pampabuhay loob dun sa mga applicants na nasama ang job code sa naka-reach na ng occupation list... i searched for reports that would somehow forecast the job codes that will still remain in SOL...
just a brief background.. from what I've read the SOL list is based on the report provided to them by AWPA (Australian Workforce and Productivity Agency). If you go to their site, it will tell you this information and that they based their report on the reports provided them by agencies and corporations that would demonstrate why a certain job code should be in the SOL list... Please see below link for a copy of the March 2012 report they provided to the Minister of Australia...
http://www.awpa.gov.au/our-work/national-workforce-development-strategy/2013-workforce-development-strategy/Documents/FutureFocus2013NWDS.pdf
this is a link to the video showing the launch of the paper...

Hope someone can help me clarify some confusion. I'm about to send my SS application for 190 in the DIAC website. However, the message I got before clicking the SUBMIT button is
The EOI for this subclass is able to be completed. The client's claims equal 55 points
As per the DIAC website, though, it says I need 60 points to be able to apply. My questions are below:
1. Do the 55 points I got from SS include the Skill Select nomination points?
2. If I only got 55 points, why is it still letting me continue with the application?
3. Does this mean I automatically get declined for SS?
Help please! Thank you!

- EOI effective date, meaning kung sino pinaka-unang nagsubmit
- and by EOI points, kung sino mas mataas
so im assuming na pagnagsubmit kayo ng EOI ngayon eh mas okay dahil mas una kayo sa iba..

Pwede ba ako mag claim ng 10 points for "Award or qualification recognised by the assessing authority in the assessment of the skilled occupation"?
Nung nag try ako sa My Points Calculator (http://www.mygration.com.au/points-calculator), may part na "Educational Qualifications: Skills assessment for overseas qualification (10)"... kaya ko kinoconfirm if un ung positive assessment ng ACS pra ma claim ko ung 10 points?
Sorry if medyo magulo ung post ko... Thanks.

para hindi magulo.. hahah.. i have questions for you:
1. what is your college degree?
2. nagsubmit ka po ba ng RPL? or pinagsubmit ka ba ng ACS ng RPL?
3. Kung IT-related ang degree mo at hindi ka nmn pinagsubmit ng RP, then dont, worry about the RPL...
if nag RPL ka, then that means hindi IT-related ang course mo.. and ACS wont be able to give opinion whether it is comparable to AU degree or diploma.. so hindi ka pwede magclaim ng any points, kasi wala kang basis...
so based sa pagkaintindi ko, you need to get opinion on your degree sa VETASSESS...

- wait for the result of your assessment ... if ACS cannot give any opinion on your degree.. then you cannot claim. then you go to VETASSSESS for assessment of your degree
- if ACS provided opinion on your degree, then you claim points based on their assessment result.

Wala bang mga ECE dito. Ask ko lang kasi. I am an ECE pero my working experience is just on the technical level. Currently i am working in singapore as a Test Engineering Specialist. Ano po ba dapat na nominated work ko in applying ng EOI, and then sa assessment ng skills. Sorry po, kasi parang nalilito ako dito. Hope maliwanagan ako dito. THanks.
