Thanks okpas12 and Bellong .... I'll try taking the English Exam Asap
On the NT occupation List, it was emphatically stated that someone taking the MARKETING SPECIALIST must attain @least 7points in all categories.

I only need 5points more since I already have 55points in Age/Edu and Work respectively;

Age: 30point
Edu Qual: 15points
Work Exp: 10points
IELTS: pending

My Question is if I probably didn't make 7points as specified in the NT list, will I be possibly considered? even if I get a positive assessment?

2. My 1st Degree carries Purchasing and Supply while my MBA carried Marketing. I have my 1st degree Transcript and Cert but My MBA has not been issued.

Do u advice I use the Bsc only or wait till the MBA is issued?

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

bblessed:
Please do they request for statement of account for processing PR and how many points do state need? is it 50 or 60 point.

dailydolar:

Adetoi01:
Medicals can only be done with hospitals recognised by the DIPB, check their website if there's any in PH, I only know of the ones in Abuja. Lagos has too.

okpas12:
Dear All, Is it possible to do medical examination(General Skilled Migration) in Portharcourt after obtaining HAP ID without travelling to Lagos just like the way PCC can be done from Portharcourt? I am just trying to be proactive in order to make proper arrangements for the days ahead.Thanks in advance for your prompt response.....

Morning folks,

Just woke up to see that DIBP has reverted to the former method of holding 2 invitation rounds per month (every two weeks). The draws are no longer held on the Mondays but now on Fridays.

The numbers of 189 monthly invitations have also dropped from 2300 to 2000, while 489 has also declined to just 40.

NNBB2012:
As it is, you have 45points without the English test. You need at least 10points from English test for you to be eligible for any visa. Department of immigration would refer to your letter for the purpose of awarding points for your experience; since it is stated on your letter that you have 3yrs, then you would be awarded 5points and nothing more. Focus on our English test and make sure you get at least 7,7,7,7 (IELTS)/ 65,65,65,65 (PTE A). Goodluck in your test.

KIKIADE:
Sir, How was the experience with TRA, what are the documents needed and how long does it take for the result to be out, then the fees as compare with that of EA. then why going for 341111 when you can go for some other electrical engineering occupations on the list. Sorry for all the questions , I equally have HND with 15 years experience in NEPA and at the point of choosing one of the occupations on the SOL list but considering the fees by the assessing organization-EA,TRA and VETASSESS.thanks

NNBB2012:
Good on you, you are fine with the Cert 3 for that occupation. Like I said before, you will still get your 10points from the qualification. You really don't need to include your HND while submitting EOI. How many points do you have altogether now? And which visa would you be applying for?

NNBB2012:
Which occupation were you assessed for? What should bother you is the requirement of the occupation. Both HND and Cert 3 have the same points.

I don get alert, God win. I got my grant for 190 visa yesterday. Thanks to God and good people on this thread. Below are my timeline and other details to serve as guide to others:

(Nominated occupation: Management Accountant)
8-May-2015 Positive assessment result, but about 6 years experience was cut to less than 2 years.
8-May-2015 Was short of 5 points because I couldn't claim points for work experience, therefore opted for 190. Lodged my EOI (selected NSW)

Next step for me is to try to get a job before I land Oz (God help me). Plan to travel Jan/Feb next year.

opa4pr:
Hello house, i need your inputs here as regards my chances for 189/190 Visa.
I have a bachelors degree in Accounting and two years work experience as human resource officer.
I admit i cannot get points for work experience.
Age- 30
IELTS- 7 in all bands (About to write) 10
Bsc- 15
CSOL- 5 ...all equals 60

My worry is, i actually obtained the Bsc via distance learning. My transcript had been evaluated by World Education Service(WES) while i was processing Masters in the USA. IPA/CPA I learnt assess Accounting skills, would they accept Bsc obtained via part time?
Thanks.
