Wrong advice...

He stands no chance of a positive assessment with VETASSES because he doesn't have any agricultural related experience.

He should stick with the accounting.
[quote[quote author=Hephziebah post=61430484]You are better off assessing with your Animal Science degree because if you assess as an accountant, only your post-qualification experience will be recognized. Considering your accounting Bsc is 2017, you will lose out on experience points. As long as you can get invited with the minimum points on your Animal Science degree, then, you are good to go.

author=koleefem05 post=61432836]

Both of you are right. You looked at it from two different perspectives. However, since he has a degree in Animal Science, the best bet is to assess as an Agricultural Scientist/Consultant by packaging I did it, and it came out positive.
With accounting at 75 points.. I don't see you nailing the points without experience points (at least 5yrs).
As koleefam05 mentioned. Animal science with packaging should do it for you, also I hope your age gives you 30pts, Then 20pts in English.....15 for Education.....thats 65 w/o work experience.
I will suggest you do a points calculator also b4 proceeding.

stepo707:
My occupation is computer network professional and am seeing 65.please what does that mean? If I have up to 60 points can't I still do the EOI?
You yes can apply for EOI with 60pts ,
however 60pts is currently not gonna hack it for 2631 visa 189... however you can opt for visa 190 or visa 489.

This is how EOI and points work...

We get asked this question quite a lot here at Getting Down Under and to be honest, it’s a pretty difficult question to answer because there are so many dependencies to being successful.

Sure, you have a confirmed occupation in demand, you have reached the points threshold and English language requirement, however, there is something that’s really difficult to take account for, and that’s the other applicants.

You see, once you have registered an Expression Of Interest with SkillSelect, you are automatically ranked against the other Australian visa applicants who have also applied.

Your ranking is based on the information you provide within your EOI. EOIs are ranked using points achieved on the skilled migration points test. A prescribed pass mark will be set as the minimum points score required for each visa category.

Where you have the same number of points as another applicant, then this equally scoring EOIs will be separated by the time of submission with earlier submission dates ranking more highly.

Now let’s look at a few scenarios to see how this would work in practice.

Australian EOI Scenario 1

So in the above scenario, you have qualified for an Australian skilled Visa with 65 points. You have been added to the SkillSelect queue for your occupation.

As you have qualified with more than the minimum number of points for this occupation (in this example the minimum is 60 points), you will receive an application before those applicants who have qualified with only 60 points.

The small number of applicants who have qualified with more than 65 points or those who have the same number of points as you but registered their EOI before you will be invited first.

EOI Scenario 2

In this second scenario, with 65 points you have joined your fellow applicants at the front of the SkillSelect queue.

Even though these applicants registered with SkillSelect months before you did. As your points score is higher. You will be invited to apply for a skilled visa first

Australian EOI Process – Scenario 3

In this final scenario, you’ve completed your EOI and feel pretty good about yourself. Despite only needing 60 points to qualify for your application, you’ve managed to score 65 points.

What you don’t know, however, is there is a large number of applicants who have been waiting for an invitation with even more points.

In this instance, even though you have qualified with a high points score. The fact that there are applicants with even more points means that you will not receive an invitation until these applicants receive an invitation first.

Other Considerations

After submitting your EOI, you can view your point score; however, because your ranking is continuously changing as new EOI’s are submitted and invitations issued, you will not see your ranking.

Your EOI will stay in SkillSelect for a maximum of two years. At any time during the validity of your EOI, you can update your details to reflect any additional qualifications or experience you might have obtained. This might increase your likelihood of being invited or an employer contacting you.

After each invitation round for the independent and skilled regional (provisional) sponsored visas, the Australian government published via the SkillSelect website, the lowest points test mark for which an EOI received an invitation.

This will give you an indication of your potential for receiving an invitation in future rounds.

I think all schools except UI, UNILAG and OAU belong to the tier-2 category. The chairman with the document can elaborate
Hephziebah:
You are correct on this cos I remember I came across the document when I was going to assess and only found [s]OAU and UNILAG accounting degrees as being equivalent[/s] then(cant remember seeing UI, think they dont do accounting there). The thing is most accountants who apply for assessment are usually chartered so in my opinion, its the professional qualification that makes up for the BSc which eventually makes us assessed as equivalent of their own accounting degree. I remember I delayed my assessment for almost a year cos I wanted to get full membership of ACCA cos I was also scared of getting a negative assessment with only my BSc and ACCA associate qualification(maybe this was a bit overboard but I didn't want to take chances).

Overall, I will say if the person is chartered, he can go ahead and assess.
Both assertions abi na assumption is not accurate.
I know someone from madonna university who got AQF bachelor for his engineering degree, as bellong & toslad mentioned....OOU degree is also equivalent AQF Bachelor, none of the schools i mentioned is on your exception list.

Accountants - SkillSelect UpdateIn our last newsletter, we discussed the increase in the required points for a 189 invitation for accountants to 85 points.

This was very unexpected, and Immigration has now confirmed that they are experiencing technical difficulties with SkillSelect and are working to resolve these.

As a result, no invitations were issued to accountants in the 4 October round.

We are hoping that Immigration will resolve the situation shortly, and will provide further information as it becomes available.

It is annoying when people ask how to go about applying.

The title of the thread says "general guide to Australian PR..." Yet you say you don't know how to go about it.
You can't leave the beginning of a textbook to jump to the last page without first having basic understanding of what the book is about by reading introduction.
For all those who don't know how to go about it, a simple read of the first three pages will resolve your issue.

SkillSelect results for the 20 September round have been released. For most occupations, the required score continues to decline. The required score for Accountants to receive an invitation has increased to 85 points.

For non-pro rata occupations, the required score for a Skilled Independent Subclass 189 invitation remains at 65 points. However, waiting times with this score are now down to 1 week, so we expect the required score to drop to 60 points in the next invitation round.

Most pro rata occupations remain stable, but the occupation of Accountant required 85 points in the last round, up from 75 points. The same number of invitations was issued in the 20 September round (239), so this result is very difficult to understand. We are currently seeking clarification from the Department of Immigration as it appears that there may be an error with the SkillSelect system.


NSW has released the long-awaited Priority Skilled Occupations List. So far this program year, NSW has not granted many 190 Nominations and we expect that NSW will resume the invitation and processing of Skilled Nominated Subclass 190 nominations in the coming weeks.
