EOI SkillSelect - Point Test Table

cchamyl · September 2013

@lock_code2004 ..this is weird kasi nung fill out ako ng visa sa skills select bago ako makapag continue naggenerate na sya ng TRN. So bali sa skillseelct ko meron ako user id sa EOI ko then pag nag apply visa ako nanghihingi pa din ng TRN....hndi pa ako nakpagbayad kasi hndi ko pa nacomplete yung visa application ko ..nag fifillout pa lang ako. Bakit kaya ganun?
Hmmm i dont think you have a TRN.. Kaya walang lumalabas na trn sa mga request mo sa knila because hndi kapa nakabayad.. Na gegenerate lang ang TRN aftr mo ma complete/lodged/bayad ng fee ang visa applciation..

This is what i know..

Are you saying now ba na hndi ka makacontinue magfill-up ng visa application dahil hingingan ka ng Trn?

hello @jeff

makaka-receive ka ng TRN number upon clicking on apply for visa button. Kahit draft pa eto.. meron ka na... you will receive an email stating your TRN details... kahit d ka pa nagbayad... this is what I experienced. I believe you were not able to create your TRN yet as it is possible that you did not save it or encountered other technical errors. I suggest you go back to your EOI page... click on the visa subclass that you are applying for then lodge visa... it will then lead you to another page stating your personal details and the TRN number... there is a note there to copy and save it since you will be using this as reference of your application... you can opt to continue until payment or save a draft... you should receive an email from DIAC... kindly check again..

Hi All,

Got invitation for SS at WA and about to send my application when ivd noticed theres an error in my EOI IELTS ref number.

Do I need to update my EOI before I proceed with SS? or immediately apply for SS? Please advise.

Thank you.

GoToWaOZ · September 2013

@amadtammm2013 - Yes, you must correct this first po.

If you can still edit your EOI, please do the correction first. Kung naka-lock-in na po ang EOI dahil sa invitation, confirm with DIAC, otherwise, need to wait for the deadline para ma-edit then wait for another invitation.

dati po ganito ang pwedeng way but Not 100% sure whether it still works this way now...

lock_code2004 · September 2013

@TinerBebi i think okay naman pag mapua, it will help kung may prc license si mr.

But only EA can give the assessment level..

Or lets wait for other members na taga mapua din..

TinerBebi · September 2013

thanks sir @lock_code2004 ! wala po sya PRC license eh...pero 5 years na sya work dito SG...may nabasa nman din me sa isang thread dito sa pinoyau na basta overseas ka nag-ppractice currently ng nominated profession mo, ok lang kahit wlang prc license...sana nga. di bale, we will leave it to EA na lang po...

caelaemerich · September 2013

Hi. Speaking of prc license, an expired license will not merit 'pogi points' sa assessing body ano po ba? Un na lng kc kulang kay hubby eh atat na kmi mag submit. Or pwede magsubmit and indicate that license is expired and this will not negatively affect the assessment? Hndi pa po kc kmi mka uwi sa pinas this time around. TIA for the advice.

As long as non practicing sya sa Pinas hindi need ng current PRC license. But it will not hurt if you submit a CTC of the plastic license and a screen shot of the online license verification from the PRC website.

amadtammm2013 · September 2013

@GoToWaOZ
Salamat po sir! Pede pang i update, just worried before i click the button ang sabi it might affect my invitation to apply. Hope everthing ok ksi nga nag ask na ang ss ng invitation.

Ayos. Thanks @btarroja213

jeff · September 2013

@lock_code2004. Ok na nagrespond na ang E visa support na provide na yung TRN ko. Kahit hndi p ako nag bayad nagprovide na sila ng TRN. Problema ko lang pano mag attach ng document sa visa. Wala ako makita na field sa evisa application. San b pwede mag attach? After ko mag fill out ng credit card details?

lock_code2004 · September 2013

my opinion...
i think PRC license will not affect the skills assessment (especially if you are practicing abroad)..

but, it might affect (based on people's experience) the assessment on your Education Qualification (whether it is equivalent to AU Degree or AU diploma)

ah okay so ngayon pala may TRN na even before magbayad..

yung attachment ng docs, after mo pa yun magbayad..
so magbayad ka muna.. then pag tapos na..
you will receive an email to confirm na bayad kana.. that means application has been lodged..
then you will get instructions on how to upload docs..

jeff · September 2013

@lock_code2004. Alright thanks. Hopefully magtuloy tuloy na.. Will keep u posted. Thanks,

Salamat po sir! Pede pang i update, just worried before i click the button ang sabi it might affect my invitation to apply. Hope everthing ok ksi nga nag ask na ang ss ng invitation.

Ok, that's good po :-bd Double-check at triple-check your claims sa EOI nyo, before you accept the invitation by your State Sponsor. Mala-lock na po kasi ang EOI after you accept the SS invitation.

Basta po sure na kayo na tama lahat ng claim nyo sa EOI at lahat ng details eh kaya nyo i-prove sa case officer pag lodge nyo ng visa, Go na Go na po yan! \:D/

loudandclear · September 2013

I had just lodged a visa application, but haven't uploaded docs yet, will do it later. I have some questions, I hope you could help me.

1.) Can I still edit the information i declared sa pag fill-out ng forms during visa lodging?
2.) On question re "overseas employment", i understand this pertains to employment outside Australia. So ang answer ko dito YES with a duration of 8 yrs..." Tama?
3.) Do I need to state "intended state of residence"? I put in Victoria, intended lang naman pwede pa magbago.
4.) On question re "secondary level and above educ". Do I need to include pati yung secondary (high school) level ko? Hindi ko n nilagay to kase hindi ko naprepare yung mga highschool docs ko, baka kase hingan pa ako ng proof. Meron naman akong docs kaya lang hahalukayin ko pa sa baul or baka diko na makita. Ok lang ba wag na ilagay yung high school ko?
5.) "Date To" of current employment. Ayaw ma-save when i left it blank. So I just selected the current date. Ganun din ba ginawa nyo?
6.) On question re "outstanding debts on any public authority". I have pending housing loan application to pag-ibig waiting for processing and approval and I assume it will be approved soon, do i need to declare it? What I did, since hindi pa sya approve, i answered NO to this question. Pero sooner, do I need to inform my CO pag approve na loan ko? Worried ako baka makaapekto sa visa appln ko.

Thanks. I hope you can take time to answer my questions. God bless.

silver_ice · September 2013

hello!
question po- what if nka-apply ka na sa EOI w/ age=30pts, pro na-invite ka after FY reset at saktong ng-33 ka na that time. Ia-update mo ba dapat yung points to 25 for the visa appl'n? TIA po sa help

mr_pogi · September 2013

Hello guys,

Regarding po sa subclass 190, last June 2013 ko pa po kc na submit yung EOI at up to now dpa pa po na seselect.

Yung mga SS application status ko is:

NT, SA SS Application (Refused)
Queensland, NSW, Tasmania, WA (Not in State Occupation List)
Melbourne, ACT (IELTS 7 in all band required)

May chance parin po ba ma select yung application kung hahayaan ko nlang yung application ko dun sa Skillselect at dna mag apply ng diretso ng SS sa mga website ng states?

Thanks po

lock_code2004 · September 2013

@mr_pogi - hello ilang point po kayo?

as i can see, ksama ang occupation nyo (kung kayo ang primary applicant) sa mga occupations na maraming applicants kaya medyo mahigpit ang labanan.. konti lang ang naiinvite kada month...

why dont you try na si Mrs ang primary, mag pa-assess sya as Structural or Civil Engr.. etc..

mr_pogi · October 2013

@lock_code2004 - hello

Yes ako po Primary applicant, sa 190 = 60 points po, sa 489 = 65 points po. Uu nga dami nag aaply sa Occupation ko, hirap na mainvite

@lock_code2004 - hello

since ang occupation nyo ay nasa CSOL.. kailangan nyo talaga ng State Sponsorship (SS)..
and based sa information nyo Victoria/ACT na lang ang available, but requires 7.0 IELTS in each module..

So i think your only option is to retake IELTS and get 7.0... then apply for SS Victoria/ACT..

kasi kung maghihintay kayo ngaun, hindi po talaga kayo maiinvite without SS approval..

habibi · October 2013

@rooroo Congrats, by the way, musta yung nakalagay sa letter, may nabawas ba sa work experience?

rooroo · October 2013

@cchamyl, thanks

@habibi, oo 2 years nabawas. kaya almost 7 years lang un considered skilled. 10 pts lang naclaim ko.

kayenzky · October 2013

hello! can you guys help me out? i'm confused regarding the work experience na pwede kong i-claim once I submitted my EOI. based sa result ng ACS assessment ko, positive naman cya, though I have a feeling na hindi ako makakaclaim ng points for work experience. ito yung snippet from my result letter:

Your skills have been assessed to be suitable for migration under 261313 (Software Engineer) of the ANZSCO Code.

Your qualification has been assessed as follows:

Your Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from XXXXXXX completed April 2008 has
been assessed as comparable to an AQF Diploma with a major in computing.

The following employment after June 2013 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant to 261313 (Software Engineer) of the ANZSCO Code.

Dates: 07/08 - 06/13 (5yrs mths)
Position: Software Engineer
Employer: XXXXXXXX
Country: PHILIPPINES

Thanks in advance!

GoToWaOZ · October 2013

@kayenzky

You can claim 10 points po for your work experience, based on the result letter you indicated.

Your educational qualification po, based on the result letter, you can claim 10 points din po. Unless your school belongs to section 1, then safe to claim 15 points.

GoToWaOZ · October 2013

@kayenzky - Sorry, di ko nabasa ng maasyos...nakalagay po pala eh, "The following employment after June 2013 is considered to equate to work at an appropriately skilled level and relevant to 261313 (Software Engineer) of the ANZSCO Code"......

In this case, wala nga po claim for experience...

pero bat ganun... nagtataka lang ako... bat walang na-credit na work experience... nde ba related lahat... d ba usually 2 years lang ang binabawas?

GoToWaOZ · October 2013

@cchamyl - may criteria po kasi...
https://www.acs.org.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0016/7324/Summary-of-Criteria.pdf

tapos eto po nakalagay sa info nila: "Only employment completed after the date you have met the ACS requirements will be counted as skilled employment."

Kaloka pala mag pa assess sa ACS ~X(
