OmogeNG,

Thank you... Well written response.

But note that the exchange rate for Naira to AUD is more than 140. The rate doesn't follow what is on currency converter.

bellong:
Tunai, I have no idea about PTE. You probably may get someone to answer it.

@Apolonius,

You will be better off with the solicitor. I think the law society in Australia gives preference for UK qualified legal professionals. The teaching will be a long thing as the body responsible will want you to have a teaching qualification.

I read something about registering as a lawyer for foreign qualified lawyers, I should still have the documents in my system. There is a different assessment rating for UK qualified people.

Good morning house,I found out that its only SA that nominated my occupation Economist meanwhile its in celling list in Canberra (pls I don't understand what they mean by celling list).I was thinking if I should do my assessment with vetassess now which would be ready in July by Gods grace.of which the list for the nominated occupations for 2016/2017 will be out in July.

what if my occupation does not exit in the 2016 /2017 list.how am I going to further my application if my assessment were positive.

Thanks Boss's for you replies

I must commend the poster and creator of this thread @bellong for taking it upon urself to compile this.... Kudos

Checking d SOL and CSOL, I found my skill which is MARKETING SPECIALIST (ANZSCO Code 225113)
Marketing Specialist is assessed by VETASSESS. But the last time I checked the ANZSCO search site, No state was sponsoring it and it not eligible for 189 subclass so I pulled back.

Tried checking back today and I found out Northern Territory is now sponsoring it since dey just update their NT Migration Occupation List.

I have my docs/requirement ready.

What chance do I have knowing that its only being sponsored by a state??.

I already have 45points with my age, Edu. qualification and work experience.

Thanks

scrollmeout:

Thanks am grateful
Nobody can predict whether your occupation will be included in the CSOL for the next financial year. Nobody! My occupation, Electronic Engineer has been flagged as endangered for 3 years but it is still included every year on SOL.

Try and read immigration threads for hints but you cannot be certain.

OmogeNG:


No. It means graduates of those schools do not need to write an examination. Graduates of Vet from schools not listed there, have to put in a request for the exam by submitting a couple of documents and paying the fee. Once they are assessed as qualified to write the exam, they will be given the go ahead.

The exam is in 2 phases....basically theory and practical....but at different times. Once you pass both components, you are then eligible to register, which in turn makes you eligible for a skill assessment.

Skill assessment is what is required at the visa application stage.

OmogeNG:


3. The permanent residency visa is a bit tricky. I will just list out the points.
a. The visa itself is valid for 5yrs, if you intend travelling in and out. But at the same time, you can live in Aus indefinitely on the same visa, if you don't intend travelling out of the country.
b. If you intend travelling out and returning to the country after the 5yrs is up, and you don't have citizenship, you will need a RRV (Resident Return Visa). It is advisable to get it onshore before leaving. It takes just 1-2days if onshore, but up to a week if offshore.
c. But, to qualify for a RRV, you must have stayed a total of 2 years (it can be a combination of different short stays) during the 5yr period.
d. There are some exceptional circumstances where a stay of less than 2yrs can be accepted.
e. You have to validate your visa within 1yr of medicals and/or pcc.

chuckdee13:
Thanks alot for ur response. Its clearer now. Ur reaponse has raised one more question though. Does it mean that after paying the exam fees u might still not be seen as qualified to write it...then what happens to the fees paid?
Thanks for ur response once again.

igwejay:

please dg8est, how where you able to find a state sponsoring your skill

Regards

OmogeNG:


Yeap. Technically, you are not paying for the exam at first. It is more of a pre-qualifying stage. If they feel you need to do some extra courses or a bridging course before the exam, they will let you know.

But the fees won't be refunded after assessment. Don't worry, I doubt you will be found unworthy.

chuckdee13:
Thank alot for your assistance. I will pass it on.

OmogeNG:


Your friend isn't a female who finished from Ui, yea?

mamajaz:

Omoge, please how do I request ANMAC to assess me? Is it online or do I have a specific place or office to submit some things in Nigeria?

OmogeNG:


Your friend isn't a female who finished from Ui, yea?

According to EngineersAustralia, the Assessing body of the Engineers, you need a Masters Degree to be classed under the Professional Engineer.

scrollmeout:

Big Congratulations Akinnawou on your PTE score and your outcome. That was a wonderful score! You get 20 points.
First and foremost, one good thing about your outcome is your education is assessed as equivalent to Bachelors degree under the AQF so you are entitled to 15 points.
Secondly, you cannot use this outcome letter to apply as a Professional Engineer, rather, you can apply as an Engineering Technologist Anzsco code 233914 on the SOL.
With regard to your age, you get 30 points until November 2016. Since you have 65 points in your kitty, you will most likely get invited before November.
When filling your EOI your points will be calculated for you. The sooner you apply the better. Congrats again. I'm glad I could be of help.
