Why would you refer to anybody as a "nigga"?

Your friend didn't complete his story. SA sponsors Youth worker only on 489 visa, if the state is really desperate in need of youth workers, it will also be on 190.
Nevertheless, there are jobs in youth work in the state for those who can meet the requirements.

What your friend didn't tell you is that you have to have experience in youth work and not just study psychology. If you have experience in youth work, go ahead with your assessment with Vetasses and seek nomination from SA or Northern Territory.

Why think of studying nursing when you can actually continue with Psychology? Psychology is as lucrative as nursing if not more lucrative sef. Except it is not what you have passion for. You can start your psychology consultancy when you become a clinical psychologist.

Please I need your advice.

I am applying for professional engineer (mechanical), and I am about to submit my assessment. I reckoned that the maximum points I can get is 65 (assuming I have 20 points in my PTE, which I will have by God's grace). However, seeing that mechanical engineering is now very competitive, do i still have hope with my points or i should work for two more years so that i can claim 5 points for work experience, as I just started working recently?

Please help, as I don't want to waste money on EA assessment without anything tangible in sight.

Please Gurus in the house I need an advice, I am qualified by the virtue of what I have read online to apply for Electrical Engineers position or Computer and system networks but these positions are very competitive and they seem to have reached their occupation ceiling.

So I want to apply for Electrician(General) since they are less competitive and has much room for more people now under skill level 3. Hope there are no negative implications ?

Me too they even wrote you must show up to 5 to 8 job advert that is not more than 6weeks old. Also you should not go for something lower than your occupation eg nominate for customer service manager and bring advert for customer service representative it will not fly.

But it's for 489 requirement don't know of 190 if you must have a job offer or not.

All the same people still get it, the truth is insurance job are hard to find didn't see a single advert not to talk of getting 5 job placement to submit.

Whatever you want go for it and believe that your case is different.

Best of luck.

jayooh:


Are you saying Tasmania will accept job advert placements in place of a proper letter of offer of employment to nominate applicants?

@Dikachi12,

What is the subclass of the visa?

How did you apply for it?

Dikachi12:
Okay belong, I think it's the457 Temporary work visa..
I am nt the one doing the application myself a Travel agent here in Nigeria is the one processing it.. He said it's a 2year work visa... He demanded my hard copy of my international passport and 300k fr visa fees.. And a balance of 1.2million naira wen the visa is out... He said my passport will be DHL to South Africa for the visa processing... I hav Alrdy deposited 150k and my passport... He said the visa will be ready by September... 2 months upwards..
My questions is if I can easily change jobs with such visa and if there is any limit to wat I can do with it... Plz guys Alrdy in Australia I need your advice so I dnt make a mistake... Thanks
I can ask dem back if you guys suspect it's a bad route to live n work in Australia thanks

I still can not wrap my head with the consistency bellong had put into responding and guiding people despite her tight schedule in Australia.

sometimes I question whether she is getting commission from Aussie government for bringing in people.

I really commend you effort. may God grant your secret desire as you help in lifting others up. thanks

Azy123:
Even on other forum we still get conflicting information. Yet there has been people granted VISA in the past without assessing their highest qualification. I am in this situation as well and I do not plan to assess. Unless if someone can tell me that it has change.

I think the emphasis is on Over claiming point

As long as you are sure of the point you should be save

The above are my opinion. And I stand by it, If wrong please someone correct me with following info...

1) point claim
2) Name of school and country of school
3) Equivalent according to CEP ( lawland can help us out here)

It will help me and others too

Our ogas dem please come and put mouth ..

OMG!!!! Sorry sorry o ( IN FELA'S VOICE). I think you have been duped mate!!! Find a way to collect your passport back ASAP. I can't remember the last time anyone sent passport to SA o!!

Please in as much as I appreciate peeps wanting to boost morale and hope of the thread; I strongly advice not to put CO's name here, just a thought.

afolaseg:


Pls, what effect does that have posting CO names? kindly educate. Is Co searching for there names on Nairaland or will that affect peoples application?

SegunWamiri:


@ Dikachi: it's quite painful that you already paid a deposit before coming on this thread to present your case. Your passport isn't needed in SA. It is lying in his office or home right now!

How long ago has your application been? Before you ask for your passport and a withdrawal, try getting details for logging into your immi account.

damoche64:


Any CV format will be ok, if u are not assessing experience but if u are assessing experience becareful not 2 fall into their pit like me cos ur reference letter has 2 align with ur CV. I will inbox my CPD.

jiangchu:


yes. very fascinating

Dikachi12:

The passport was sent on Sunday evening... Do you have evidence for this? .. And money... Hmmmn, let's see how this goes
Dnt know if 1.6mill can be enuf to process my Australian PR visa.... If you're as determined in getting this temporary one, you'll certainly be able to raise any amount involved. As far as I'm concerned, 1.6m is good enough to kick off if you're single

English test- 52-70k, assessment- 250-300k, medicals- 45k (Not too sure), Visa fee- 920-950k. All of these is about 1.3m. So you'll just have to add some more money to the change for your flight fare.

Azy123:
Plunge already taken since that is why I claimed 15 points. That was what I believed to be true but started doubting and fearing when I saw comments. As it is, nothing has changed.

CASE CLOSED. This case was open on this forum and closed before with the same conclusion.

Thanks lawland for the example from experience. If we like we can read all blogs but one single comparable experience helps put the mind at rest.
Thanks NNBB2012 for the info. Alphadoor #5 pt_movement#

Summary for others

As far as you have a positive assessment from an assessing body and the point you are claiming is clearly supported by CEP. the following applies...

1) If you have a positive assessment with one qualification and have another qualification that is higher you can use the higher qualification to claim point.
2) If your assessment authority is silent on the higher qualification - you can claim point for it
3) If the qualification is not related to your occupation - you can claim point for it
4) Even if you complete the highest qualification yesterday - you can claim point for it today

@ZoeW edit your 189 EOI Asap congrat on your ITA in advance

jorgan:


Pls I hv carefully followed your last 4 replies, but I hv a question, what if your assessing body in this case vetassess, assesses your qualification as highly relevant to ur nominated occupation and comparable to AQF, but your employment is not relevant? Can u still claim points for qualification for EOI?
