Hi, Can i submit the application to the consulate of Japan Embassy in Lagos, since i stay here in Lagos

GraduatesGrant:
Thanks so much.

I have taken note of all requirements regarding my employment. In addition to that, further proof of employment regarding receipt of income tax lodgement. Is the income tax for the whole period of employment or for a particular period, maybe for a year or six months duration?

Also, the company I worked for is actually a small company, I've never seen or discuss tax with my employer and I'm not sure if he remits tax to the Lagos state government at any point.

Thanks once again.

Can u assist with a sample of CDR report

Hello all,
Please I need some guidance.
I want to do my assessment with EA, my situation is:
B.Eng Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Ambrose Alli University, 2013
Got certification in Electrical Power Systems Training from National Power Training Institute (NAPTIN) 2016
MSc Electrical Power and System Engineering, Teesside University, UK, 2022 (Washington Accord recognized)
Work experience:
• Technical Support Engineer in Golden Power Solutions, 2017-2019
• Power Engineer (Apprenticeship) at National Power Training Institute, 2015-2016
Please how should I structure my EA assessment? I am planning to use the Washington Accord Pathway since my MSc is accredited, but I am a bit confused if I still need to write a CDR report or if my MSc alone will be enough.
Also, my recent technical experience is more focused on electrical systems, renewable energy microgrids, plant commissioning, and electrical distribution simulations.
Any guidance from people who have done similar assessments would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

Bro, there is nothing like employer super deduction in Australia. Super is not a payroll deduction, rather your employer remits your super outside negotiated pay.
What do you mean employee 5% deduction?

Hello all,
Please I need some guidance. I have gone through this thread from the first page but my situation is a bit different.

I want to do my assessment with EA, my situation is:

B.Eng Production engineering (option in mechanical engineering) 2014

Got a certification in project management from a Nigerian institute 2015

M.Eng Manufacturing engineering 2018

Work experience:
Design engineer in a renewable energy company 2018-2021

Project Engineer 2021-2022 same coy

Project manager 2022-2023 same coy

PhD in mechanical engineering in view started 2024 in new Zealand

Preparing for Prince 2 project management certification May 2025

Please how should I structure my CDR? My job is strictly mechanical design of affordable solar devices and even as a project engineer/project manager I was still overseeing the manufacturing process from design to finishing.

Also, the company I work for is not a big company but we have a standard website.

Please contributions from experience legends would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello fam

I got an offer in Aussie as a health care assistant, $32/hr for 40hrs a week.

Will this be a good start for me as a Vet?

Anfieldboss:
Thanks for taking out time to break it down for me. I guess I'll have to explore other countries for immigration.

The other option I'd have love to explore in Australia is Masters in Professional Accounting, but the tuition fees are very high.

Anfieldboss:
Hello everyone,

Please, I need the advice of experienced people here.

I am an Internal Auditor with over 8 years of work experience. I have a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Electrical Engineering and a Chartered Accountant (ICAN Chartered). I am looking at migrating to Australia using the PR route. I am considering two options: Going through the Internal Auditor route (Assessing with VETASSESS) or going as a Cybersecurity Professional (Assessing with ACS as a Cybersecurity Governance professional). For the latter, I would need at least a certification in Cybersecurity (CISA), which I am already planning on writing the exams and getting the certification.

I was told by a friend who migrated to Australia via a Master's degree program, that the points for IT is very high, that I would need at least 95 points due to the competition in IT. He told me the competition for Internal Audit is not too high, but he doesn't think the profession is in high demand.

My concern with evaluating with VETASSESS is if my academic qualifications will be evaluated for Internal Audit since my degrees are in Engineering but I have solid experience in Internal Audit. And also if the profession is really in demand?

Please guys I need your advice. I actually would prefer going via the IT Audit path as that is my preferred career path and I am already working on getting the required certifications.But I am concerned with the high competition in IT.

Help me answer the following questions
I have interest in applying for a skilled work visa but below are my following conundrums

- I have no bachelor degree
- I am above 30yrs old but below 35yrs old
- I speak and write good english as i have work on whitepapers for 2 icos for almost a year
- I am a self employed and i get paid from different clients for work and even though i had my business registered few years ago, I do not pay TAX.
- Talking about work experiences, I do not know the best way to proof my work experiences since they will need tax docs, bank statements showing monthly payments from a company etc

With all of these, do i still have hope?

Nasa4G:
Please house, I have a question that needs an urgent response. I studied Microbiology, and I am currently working as a microbiology laboratory assistant, so while filling out the occupation learned section of the VIDEX form, I didn't see any role close to my profession apart from a researcher.
So my question is this: should I select researcher, then fill in Microbiologist and Laboratory Assistant in the further information where applicable and current occupation, respectively, or should I pick other professions, then fill in the Microbiologist and Laboratory Assistant in the follow-up sections.

Please, suggestions and guidance will be greatly appreciated.

I actually thought there was no restriction on the number of hours you could work o! I just discovered one could only work full-time if you earn like 43k euros minimum or so... 😕

Omo all that restriction, learning German, job hunting and on top of that, you still need N23m for blocked account! No be small thing o. 😱

Hannania:
Read what I stated again. You can use only a work contract from a company in place of sponsorship letter or Block account. You can't work full-time on the chancenkarte, only 20hrs per week. So get a work contract if you can

Gerrard59:
Someone who went through this thread and I have been messaging throughout last year, and I am pleased to announce that she went through everything I have outlined here and got a place in a national university. She graduated ten years ago in a science field from a federal university, went through my write ups, applied, got a place, got the COE and visa. Earlier on, she got declined by some universities, but with my tip (especially the initial application email for a place), she got in.

I am glad that someone benefitted from my posts just as I benefitted from that of Majisuka. No agent was involved as it should be. Just yourself as the individual from A - Z. If she can do it, anyone can. The Japanese visa is easy to get once the COE is approved and delivered to you. Anything aside from the COE would lead to Miserability 101. Tourist visas cannot be converted to work visas. Don't allow anyone to deceive you.

The email tip: https://anumightytm.medium.com/part-two-guide-to-graduate-studies-in-the-united-state-of-america-us-38142f48d1f0

Na the same email template I use during my time and it worked across countries and universities. Send it to coincide with 9am Japanese time. If no reply after a week, send again to coincide with that time then put a call through to the prof's lab stating you sent an email. In simple English, mention your name and the reason you called.

Good luck!
