The Grant with the longest timeline has arrived!!!
The timeline is as follows;
10th December, 2014; sent in my application to Engineer Australia for assessment
5th April, 2015; Got a positive assessment, dated 2nd March.
6th April; submitted an EOI
10th April: received an ITA. The speed made me wonder if the thing na real!
22nd May; lodged my application. Made the payment but wasn’t able to upload documents because my immi account was acting up.
I discovered Nairaland and through the discussions, I discovered I had made a HUGE error- had claimed some prequalification job experience. My points should actually be 60 and not 65. E-family had given me HBP with their comments that I had made a BOGUS claim and therefore jeopardized my application. However, of all these comments, Manmeta said I will be fine…..that he can feel it within his bones. This singular comment did a lot to calm me down.
25th June; by the direction of NNBB abi Bellong, I wrote DIPB a love letter making a passionate appeal for my points to tb corrected to 60. I stated it was an error done in ignorance and not a BOGUS claim.
13th July; they responded saying that it has been noted.
17th July; I was assigned a CO and he requested for documents and medicals. Remembered I was not able to upload my documents. I had put medicals on hold to see the outcome of my plea. I requested for my immi account to be repaired, still gave issues but one day it opened and I was able to upload the docs.
4th August; I and my family went for medicals
4th September; 1st request for outstanding documents! They asked for my form 80 and F1221. I sent the docs as email attachments. They first mail had omitted these forms, I resent it. They got the second mail and yet only decided to open the first one!
11th September; they sent a mail requesting to correct my score from 65 to 60. They said they agree it was an unintentional error. I sharperly consented! At this point my BP normalized…
24th September; 2nd request for outstanding documents! Asking for form 80 and F1221 AGAIN! I discovered they don’t check their mails so I resulted to calling them asap after I have sent a document. However, they also requested for my wife’s evidence of functional English as her certificates submitted is not a proof that the courses were taught and examined in English. Na vernacular we dey use learn for Nigeria
The letter for proof of functional English took 4 weeks to obtain. UNICAL and una registrar I tire for una!
27th November; 3rd request for outstanding documents! They asked for my CV. I had attached it earlier but as usual….. They also asked for my wife’s transcript. Remembering what I passed through to get a simple letter, I acted wisely. I contacted a friend working in the university where my wife was doing her Msc and we were able to retrieve her transcript from the PG school and I photocopied it. Sharp guy!!
28th January 2016; 4th request for outstanding documents! I tire for this people! They asked I should provide the following; address (including street number) for 2 work places I had claimed (I had written only the city where they were situated), Name of family business which I was involved in. (it was a road side unregistered and nameless shop), show evidence of how I supported myself financially during my Msc abroad. Na wa! They thought I had worked during my Msc. I found the electronic receipt of my school fees paid by my father; I sent it as I didn’t have any bank statement for that period.
During all this my wife got pregnant. We thought the grant will come out and we could leave by March. We never heard anything up till March 21st when we put the application on hold.
15th April; they wrote saying my application was decision ready. They informed me of the advantage of delivering the baby onshore and asked for my wife’s due date.
15th June; requested for my application to be reopened. Our baby had arrived May 17th.
23rd June; they requested the baby to go for medicals.
8th July; the baby’s medicals was done and submitted.
2nd September; THE






189 GRANT LANDED for myself, wife and two kids!!!! It has been a dogged journey. It took a lot of will power, PERIODS of despair, anxiety (waking up every night to check mails and so many of those days, they was no mail!). Hope someone will learn from my mistakes. But above all, I believe God allowed it to be so for a reason.
My appreciation goes to God almighty, BossLadyMo, NNBB, Oga Bellong, Manmeta, Izykvision, etc.
The land of Oz, here we come!

Congratulations bro,wish you success in your promise land

Ohhhhhh OK thanks a lot dear

[quote author=utcheylee post=48065010]Hi Okosay,

Please how long did it take vetassess to finalize your assessment after using advisory? I read it takes 12 weeks but someone said since I went through advisory that it won't take up to that can you please clarify this.

Thank you.


@utcheylee
Please how many weeks did it take for your status to change from logged to application in progress in your advisory.thanks

utcheylee:
21 working days

OK thanks

Good morning Gurus,
Please someone should explain better advisory services responded this morning but am confused with this am I claiming 15 point or 10 point under education.

Again I want to assess for marketing specialist due to some document requested for Insurance broker that I couldn't provide but Anszco need bsc for mkt specialist while insurance broker is diploma.

Do I need to re assess again with them for marketing specialist or I should go ahead and apply for the full assessment with vetassess using what they stated to package the new one after all they are closely related.

please help a sister out.

You have provided documents describing the following:

1. Bachelor of Science in Co-operative Economics and Management awarded in December 2004 by the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Nigeria (4 years)

Education Level:

Using the published guidelines that we refer to for assessing overseas qualifications against the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF), it is likely that the above qualification would be assessed at AQF Associate Degree level. An AQF Associate Degree degree more than meets the educational level required for the occupation of Insurance Broker, as the occupation educational minimum level requirement is an AQF Diploma.

Area of Study:
Co-operative Economics and Management

Please how long was the processing time for your advisory service

ome240:
Yes I did claim work experience points. My assessing authority gave me 8 years and above for work experience but whilst filling up my EOI, I indicated only 5years (10points). This is because 5years out of the 8years given is verifiable. One of the companies i worked for has moved from Nigeria. Didn't want to take chances.

Thanks bro for your reply

eddypaki:
Thanks Bblessed! Have gotten d requirements, pls at what point am I suppose to submit them?

Assessment and English test first before other processes. But read up the first page of these trend and you will understand everything about the PR process. Its very much explained by belong.

tunai:
Do you mean 55 points inclusive/exclusive of 5 points from state nomination.

55points exclusive. That is 55points+5points for state sponsorship.

eddypaki:
@Egba! Pls where do I get past questions?
@ bellong! Do I just start d process? Do I need 2 do anything concerning the state sponsoring my occupation? because I wanna start d process. Pls I need clarification on d english test, how many test am I suppose 2 write? Am a bit confused with the write ups concerning the english test. I also saw something abt partner qualification is 5points! If I add my partners qualification, can dat earn me dat point? House pls I need dis info so I can start d process. Thanks

Luckily for you
Customer service is now under high availability in SA.you will now need 55 points rather than 85 points.cheers
