Hey Everyone! Admin here, It's a bit overdue but I will be migrating our forum site to a new platform for better security. I will take out all the ads as well as these pesky spammers. Please expect a bit of issues here and there, and will slowly move the features to the new one. Don't worry we are very much alive and will be alive as long as I'm here :)

Bumping this up as it’s tomorrow 👆 registration closing soon! Don’t miss out
@edward2414 it’s 75 at the moment but don’t be fixated with just 189 visa. Your occupation is very competitive so you need to be open for other visa options.
@ccvsq each case has s very individual so it’s difficult to rely on the outcome of other applicants. Based on the x amount of cases we’ve handled, not any one circumstance is ever the same.
@zirko I’ve never had to advise a client not to respond to an invite especially if he/she is serious about the move. If we’re such in a predicament, we would definitely find a way not to miss the first invite for a client. Have not experienced a sec…
@M_k_ have you actually been to the immigration website and read through the visa application process and requirements? If you haven’t, I suggest that’s the first thing you need to do before anything else to help you understand the entire process. Y…
@caspar44 if you read carefully the guidelines, nothing was mentioned about a COE requirement as such document, as what it’s called, only confirms the employment of the applicant. It is a statement of service or employment reference that they requir…
@toAustraliaandbeyond @yuki_00 yes, that’s correct, explain the situation to the case officer via a cover letter. You don’t need to submit medical and police clearances upon visa lodging. Yes, you will get a CO contact as what @patotoy mentioned but…
@xeego I believe it’s a different process since you’re getting assessed not for migration purposes. You need to liaise directly with TRA if that’s the case as this forum is more to do with skills assessment for migration. All the best!
@hopeful_Z I don’t see it would be an issue. Once your nomination has been granted, you’ll receive your invite to apply for a Visa straight away. You’ll have 60 days to apply, if you get on invite for 189? Then you just don’t have to respond to the…
@xeego electricians are one of the many occupations my office process. You should be able to refer to VETASSESS for more information regarding document preparation. Just to note that you only need a positive skills assessment to qualify for migratio…
@aranayad what did his migration agent say? The answer is clear, TRA would not offer for him to withdraw his application free of charge if they think it will be successful. His agent should have pointed that out.
@[email protected] if the error does not affect the points being claimed, it’s ok to proceed but just explain it on a cover letter upon visa lodgement. I have not handled your case so just based itbon what you posted which may or may not be accura…
@mamamilk @[email protected] just to correct, each page has to be certified, not notarised. Notary public is used for stat decs. Also I would advise to write your draft for the letters and then have them signed rather than asking the employer to d…
@mcbjosa I am never in such predicament in my practice as what @batman mentioned, you don’t muck around with such things. Why couldn’t you just accept one then?
@SAP_TRM the evidence for positive skills assessment should be downloaded under your application. If you happen to not submit one, the case officer will still ask you later on.
You mentioned your fiancée is the main applicant. I hope you have …
@SAP_TRM I did not but this is something I do for my clients given that I’m a registered migration agent myself. I provide immigration advise and handle cases for a living. All the best.
@cyborg5 yes, that’s definitely the plan. It will just get tighter, that’s the expectation sonest to get the process started sooner than later and get things right the first time as well. This just couldnt be stressed enough.
@xylocke yes, that’s a big possibility. Why wouldn’t you follow the ACS decision? Immigration gives high regards on the skills assessing authority decisions. What’s the point getting yourself assessed when you’re not even going to follow the outcome…
@denz_enriquez1988 you need to provide a reference letter either from HR or directsupervisor/manager. You need to make sure to content on the letter complies to immigration requirements.
@pissedball That’s the entire point why applicants deal with ACS - to concentrate on having their skills assessed to be equivalent to Australian. Before one can even concentrate on the immigration requirements, two things must be met first - a posit…
@patotoy I totally agree. The thing is, one thing to consider is that each case is very individual since everyone has their own and unique circumstance. Not because it worked for someone doesn’t mean it will work for all. We’ve handled so much cases…
@Jasna even a migration agent would not be able to verify if such job description match the applicants’s. It’s always the applicant who should know as that’s his area. A migration agent’s expertise is only limited to the immigration policies. I thin…
@Supersaiyan all states require that you meet the visa eligibility. That also includes your skills to have been assessed by a skills assessing authority.
