Hello guys, this thread has been of great assistance, recently got my 189 grant
Please what is the best time of the year to come to Australia as a migrant. Also is it possible to get an apartment before landing
Congratulations.
Anytime is fine (not December) - as long as you come with enough money too.
What's your occupation?

@tunlex01 and everyone.

I am 30, married.
BSc (Ed) Computer Science Education with 5 years of experience FOR Secondary school teacher 190

I want to start my aitsl for my degree. Still, I researched things about tier 1 universities and from information gathered online that only a tier 1 degree university is accepted as AQF 7 standard BUT in my own case my degree is a *5 years course* is it eligible?

Just need clarification before I start the process.
Yes, only tier 1 qualify.
If your degree is not tier 1, then you need a PGDE.

Hi House! Please I need guidance and advice from experience members of the house

I hold a Diploma in Welding with 3 years of work experience as a welder. I recently applied for a skills assessment with Trades Recognition Australia (TRA), but unfortunately, I received a negative assessment. Reason for the Negative Outcome TRA stated that they were unable to verify: My employment, and My educational qualification due to lack of response from my employer. However, during my application, I clearly provided My employer’s official email address and My institution’s official email address. Instead of using the contact details I provided, TRA appears to have independently sourced email from the employer’s and institution’s websites (this is my thinking because they didn't disclose to me the email they've contacted). These emails are currently inactive with no specific person responsible to them, which likely explains why they received no response. Based on this, they issued a negative assessment to me.

TRA refused to consider my complain and instead they asked me to apply for a review and pay an additional fee or apply fresh application which both will cost me same amount of money. My concern is that I may receive the same outcome if they continue using email addresses other than those officially provided in my documents.

Alternative Option I Am Considering:

I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering with 5 years of professional engineering experience. Because of this, I am considering switching my assessment pathway to Engineers Australia instead.

Key Questions I Need Advice On:

1️⃣ Should I proceed with TRA (review or fresh application)? This is because TRA occupations generally receive quicker invitations.The points requirement is often lower compared to Professional paths. However, I am worried about another negative outcome if they continue using inactive website emails instead of the official contact details provided in my application.

2️⃣ Should I abandon TRA and apply through Engineers Australia instead?Does Engineers Australia rely strictly on the official employer contact details submitted in the application? Or do they also source contact details independently like TRA?
Your best option is TRA (Engineers Australia assessment will be fast but nomination may never come) while Welder nomination is fast within a couple of weeks.

The email you supplied, is it an official email address with domain name and not gmail?
What you can do is in your application, put in a letter stating that the email on the website is not currently monitored and the company is not big on IT as it's a welding company.

Don't do a new application but a review.

Yes the email contain company domain name, however the email is for my manager assigned to me in the company, so it contain his name I.e abc.aky@company.com. I sent them email attaching letter from employer clarifying thesame but they insisted they cannot use the email I provided rather they will source contact details independently from public website or Internet

Hello everyone,

I am about to begin my PR journey and would sincerely appreciate guidance from experienced members here.

I am 37 years old, single

B.Sc in Building Construction
Close to 5 years of total experience in the construction field
Over 1-year active internship
About 2 years of solid post-graduation experience (excluding NYSC)
NYSC at Lagos State Ministry of Works,
Registered my own construction company during NYSC (one-man business, handled projects independently)
Master’s degree in Environmental Engineering (completed in Poland). Currently partnering with a startup in the UK on waste management sustainability. (Freelance)
I currently work as a data centre technician here in Poland.
IELTS 7 (overall)

My concerns:
• I am currently living in Poland, my current job does not count as I don't have a degree in computer science
• My NYSC experience was at the Lagos state Ministry of Works — not sure if this counts for skill assessment.
• My self-employed experience has no payslips or tax documents. And I am outside Nigeria, not sure I can work that out
• My master’s in Environmental Engineering, not sure if my freelancing with this startup company in the uk counts

Good afternoon big man, please I need help on where I actually fit. I studied biochemistry and graduated in 2017 with a second class upper.

Since then I have been teaching chemistry and biology before getting a job in a Nigeria commercial bank in 2022. This is my 4th year as a banker and by the grace of God I will be completing my MBA (marketing) this year April.
Kindly advise me on where I fit in and the necessary steps to take, thank you.

Banker is not an occupation. You need to be specific about your role in the bank and the university you graduated from

Visa option is not your first task. Your first step is to identify the occupation you want to nominate and if you are eligible for it.
Which uni did you graduate from and which occupation do you want to nominate from the Skilled occupation list?

I'm afraid that's not an occupation on the skilled occupation list. There is no occupation you can assess at the moment as a TSS.

I have been working in RCC construction for 8 years. Do I stand a chance to qualify for Subclass 189?

You do not qualify because EKSU is a tier 2 uni and a 4 year course from there will not be positively assessed by the Australian accounting bodies without an MSc in Accounting or ACCA. ICAN MAY also fly.

Also, the occupation has limited chance.

Thanks so much Baba, I just need few clarifications in some of the documentations I have gathered so far, trying not to spam the group that was why I asked specifically that way one of those people in that category can relate and give the appropriate guidance.
