Hi bellong, compliments of the season.
Hope u and yours are doing fine?

Are u in Nigeria?

Thank you sis. We are good. Compliments of the season. May the joy of the season fill your home.

No, not in Nigeria.

Xkoba:

I will advise you go for quality assurance manager assessed by vetassess

He has to proof he is a manager to get a positive assessment.

HEADYWORLD:
Please, how many year does TRA assessment valid for?

Help a brother

3 years

Bodacious1:
Please again, I need someone who has assessed with ACS. Also if I use statutory declaration must the person attesting it put their passport photo on the declaration?

No, the person doesn't have to put his passport photo.

omabetter:
Thanks for your response Mr Bellong. What I mean is that should I consider ICT support Engineer or Telecommunication Network Engineer based on my situation?

You will make this decision yourself. However, based on the limited information you provided, you have no experience in any of the two. You should assess in an occupation you have experience to increase your points.

ICT support Officer is different from ICT support engineer.

@Omabetter,

The occupation you nominate will determine the body to conduct your assessment with.

Quanesha:
Hello All,
Please i am just starting this process and i am already confused
.

What is the confusion about? The information provided on the thread is straightforward and easy to understand. Take your time to read step by step. Although, some information are outdated, it will be updated soon.
.

Can someone help me I am a Human Resource Manager..

You can either apply for 190 or 491 depending on the states nominating the occupation. You should check assessment requirements first. You really have to be a manager to get positive assessment and not just an HR officer.

What visa am i eligible for? Has someone in this same line of work started the process how Did you go about it??

Answered above.
.
.

Also does any one have a contact for Olabisi Onabanjo University

You should check the school website or travel to Ago-Iwoye.

Fisayo1212:
Pls can someone travel to Australia without doing finger print here in Nigeria

Depends on the visa you are traveling on. For permanent resident visa, finger print is not required but temporary visa longer than 3 months requires a finger print.

REBEKITAB123:
Good Morning Gurus, I am new here. and I really want to start up this process. I wanted to apply for the Canadian EE but due to some challenges, I opted for this. I have my evaluation done by IQAS Master and I've also don my IELTS. please, what next am I suppose to do now? I am a lawyer by profession but works as a Sales Admin Manager.

You cannot use assessment from Canada for Australia. They are two different and distinct countries.

hartson:
Happy Birthday and prosperous years ahead.Age with grace.

Amen.

Thank you

@Mamajaz, rinzylee, DoDirtsLikeWorm, Oyetpel,

Thank you. God bless.

For all students studying in Victoria State, as from today, you are no longer allowed to drive on your international licence beyond 6 months.

If you have lived in Victoria for up to 6 months, you are expected to convert your licence to a Victoria's State driver's licence. If you will continue to drive with your licence, when caught you will be treated as driving unlicensed.

Take note.

@JoyceVince,

Congratulations. Enjoy the Great Southland.

@Quinhade,

Use the ANZSCO job descriptions. If you align your job descriptions with that of ANZSCO, you will be fine.

@Computergeek,

My immediate concern is your family's attitude to the traumatic experience your child had. In your statement, you wrote that you told the boy to forget about the experience.

It may not be to you but that is dismissing his experience and downplaying the serious effects of the event. You and your husband will need to do an in-depth search about the workings of the brain.

My advice is that you get help for your son to adequately and professionally process the experience. If not dealt with appropriately now, it may start haunting him in form of flashbacks down the lane.

Your talk is not enough. He needs a professional help to process the event.

ajayidebo:
Chief.. I can instruct Vetassess not to assess my ND tho. I know someone that did that recently. Unless the HND alone will not be enough for a positive assessment of my qualification.

It is your call if you are willing to do so.

[quote author=ChidimmaP post=82880727][/quote]

Since it is IT related occupation, I will suggest you go the RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) route. You should read more information on ACS website.

Yes, you can ask your employer to give you your payslip as evidence of salary paid. Tax certificate can serve as the third party evidence.

Raymum:
@bellong

That's true. I'm just thinking of getting PR before graduation. Thank you bros, I will check out my options and see how it goes.

No state will give you PR before graduation because they expect you to complete your studies in their state. However, if you want to use your Nigeria experience and qualification, you have to do your study in the state nominating that occupation because states don't sponsor onshore applicants not resident in their state.

Raymum:
@bellong

I'm studying Public Health, planning to change to Social Work next semester.

Social worker is on the graduate stream list. If you complete a bachelor or Masters degree in social Work, WA can sponsor you under the graduate stream.

@tunlex01,

Ok.. Thanks

Superted01:


Thank you so much @tunex01 I feel writing TOEFL will be much easier to achieve.
What's the difference between normal and priority processing please.

Priority processing is fast tracked, your assessment can be completed within days while normal may take up to 12 weeks.

@Raymum,

What are you studying? WA also sponsors people who study in the state. Depending on what you are currently studying, there may not be any point running to another state when you can get what you seek where you are.

I am in Perth too.

Raymum:
[


I'm currently in Aussie on Student Visa (Western Australia), although I plan to move to a uni in regional area next semester.

Where in WA are you?

ajayidebo:
My two cents is for you to search for your occupation using ( https://www.anzscosearch.com/search/ )

What should be best fit for you is; 225311: Public Relations Professional

You need to go through the job description as well as the educational qualification requirements. Once you've determined that the job description fits, further information on how to proceed is on the first page of this thread.

P.S. From my little findings, Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales are actively selecting applications.

VETASSES will ask for it if you don't send it. You need to make effort to get it sent.

@ajayidebo,

The professional qualification will not add any point. Your HND and BSc are enough.

ashaju33:
@bellong thanks. How about telling the CO that i was exempted from tax during NYSC period. Does this sound tenable?

I do know that hundreds of Nigerians have been assessed by EA which means the assessor may likely know what the NYSC year is. If you have any concrete evidence or reason why you are exempted, you can say it.

ashaju33:
@bellong, please i need your advise on this issue. I was contacted by my EA assesor to support my NYSC experience with reference letter and tax certificate which i dont have. I submitted statement of account, discharge certificate and posting letter (photocopy). My NYSC experience is a relevant engineering experience and i want to include it so that i can claim 8 years. Please kindly advise as this is my second time of applying for EA assessment and I intentionally delay this application to this moment hoping that I will include NYSC in order to maximize my point.

The NYSC experience is relevant but doesn't mean you are paid at the appropriate professional level. It is either you pay the tax incurred for the one year at your state's internal revenue or remove the experience. If the assessor will accept that your tax was deducted from source prior to being paid, you can give that excuse.

I can't think of any other way around it.

ajayidebo:
To further add to the above, kindly see South Australia on Insurance Agent 190 visa requirement as at today 02/10/2019

Did you read the comment in the screenshot you provided?

Goodluck bro.

@Ajayidebo,

I hope you have not paid for the assessment? Prior to assessment, it is not enough to check the occupation list, you also have to check if the occupation is sponsored by any state if it is not on 189 list.
I don't think there is any state sponsoring insurance agent. Doing the assessment without a sponsoring state will likely be an exercise in futility.

What is your own occupation?

Theokleia:


Oh I think we’ll pick that instead, but for the principal applicant, I felt he should be the PA cos he’ll fetch us extra 15 points from his work experience compared to my uncoordinated work experiences and from the calculator, there was no extra point for masters and my age only fetched 5 extra points. Or am I wrong?

You are not getting the idea. What occupation is he going to nominate?

Nenyeroz1:


Sir Bellong thanks so much for your help! AITSL is the assessing body, I'm heading to their website immediately!
Also, can I apply for visa 491 with the competent English (6.5) result that I have or should I still write to get higher score?
May God bless you sir.

I didn't put a caveat that getting a minimum of 8 in each band is critical to getting nomination and invitation.

You need to retake the English test.

@Theokleia,

What is the occupation your husband intends to nominate? I am not sure if there is any occupation for a petroleum cargo inspector on the list. The other alternative is to nominate environmental engineering if it is related to what he does.

Going by your information, you will likely be the principal applicant. You don't need experience for a positive assessment as an engineer. You can write the CDR from your undergraduate thesis and industrial attachment.

@nenyeroz1

What does your husband do in the rescue and disaster management?

Based on the information you provided, you are in the better position as the principal applicant. The body assessing Teachers are not keen on paid experience for positive assessment, only that you will not get any points for experience if you cannot proof that you were paid. As long as there is teaching practice in your curriculum, you should get a positive assessment without experience points.

Notwithstanding, you should still be able to get minimum of 65 points and more for the visa 491.

Go to the assessing authority's website for further information.
