Do not proceed with the visa application, if you say that your points will not be enough, you will just waste your money on the application fee..
Check again your eoi points and check where you can get additional points..

yung EOI points, ikaw lang ang nag-entry ng data.. so it's your responsibility to make sure na tama ang claim mo..
EOI points will only be confirmed after mainvite kana to apply for visa, pay the visa fee.. and then magkaroon ng CO..CO will validate your claimed EOI points.. based on uploaded documents, ielts, assessment results.. etc...
pag mali ang claimed points mo (especially pag nabawasan at naging below passmark 60pts), goodbye visa fee..

on your second question, in the end, DIBP has the last say on whether to award points or not..they may or may not investigate, because skills assessment is the job of the assessment agency, kaya nga nandyan sila...
DIBP and assessment authorities follow the same guidelines..
so if the assessment authority already said your work experience is not related,
why would you want to take the risk of applying for visa, without an assurance na ma-award ka ng points sa work experience (na hindi related as per assessment)..
so go back to your assessment first, and clarify or appeal, if you really think your work exp is related to your nominated occupation..

if you are still in EOI stage... you can still edit it and claim.. unless you have reasons why you dont want to claim.. or nagkamali lang kayo sa pag-fill-up ng EOI..

so if you chose not to claim points, as long as you have 60pts minimum, then walang problema..
if you have your old documents (COE for assessment), you can use that for visa application.. no need to get new documents..
just my opinion..

Question po, sa result ng EA namin ang assessed work experience ay
Nov 2005 - Feb 2012 &
Nov 2012 - Nov 2013 (dahil ung COE na nisubmit namin was dated last Nov 2013)
Sa eoi, ang nilagay naming work experience ay
Nov 2005 - Feb 2012 &
Nov 2012 - present/no end date (dahil employed parin naman under the same company)
...so not exactly 100% same as the assessment result. Magkakaproblem kaya Yan sa CO once mag lodge and bayad kami ng visa or okay lang as long as mapakita naman namin na same job/role pa din ang ginagawa. This may not be the smartest question pero bigla lang kasi ako napaisip kung baka magkaissue ito...
TIA...

kung mag change ang points (example from 5yrs, magiging 8yrs na ang work exp), then okay lang din as long as you can provide updated COE.
goodluck on your application.
