Thank you for the response.
I need ur kind advice on this: I have gotten a positive assessment from ACS for computer Network and Systems Engineer, with the look of things I think I can only get 60 points (age:30pts + Experience 5 pts + qualifications 15pts + language 10pts) just like u mentioned, but I noticed that peeps that were granted PR recently got 65pts for the same occupation "computer Network and Systems Engineer". My questions now is should I apply for state nomination so that I can get 65pts or I should lodge my EOi with my 60 points?

What school did u graduate from?

If you are married, you can gain 5 points for partner points, provided she is less than 50, has competent English, positive assessment for an SOL occupation.

Currently 70 point is required for SA state nomination.

Why not check States like Kwara or Osun where demands are not as high as in Lagos?

I just spoke with NIS officer at Osogbo office now and he said there is no booklet for now. The few one available goes to the highest bidder.

The money allowed is 10,000 Australia Dollar or it equivalent in other currency.

@ bolaobby, The few one available goes to the highest bidder. I doubt if the person that told you that is being faithful to you, I just called our link there now after reading your post, but he refuted the above. However, he corroborated the unavailability of the booklets, but claimed it will be available within a month. So, what they do is for you to come around, process everything & when booklets are available, they fine tune all they have prepared and then issue them to the owners. He concluded that "it's no longer a do it and collect in a day thing like it used to be.
May God help Nigeria.

My wife got a positive assessment from CA with the profile that you indicated above i.e. BSc (OOU) + ICAN.

@Virtual3xpert: Thanks for sharing.

@40manlappy,

I will like to PM you for a link to who can assist with OOU accounting syllabus (2003 to 2007) and transcript.

If you can share it here if the person does not mind, it will be appreciated.

Thank you

Please i want to confirm the passport renewal process to take a final decision. If I start the process now, do I need to drop my current passport with immigration through out the renewal process and if I do not need to drop it, would I still be able to travel with it even after i have started the renewal process and new one not ready.

I am thinking of getting it sent to me via DHL when ready and am already in Australia.

For renewal in Australia, you will have to travel to Canberra to get it done. Sometimes Nigerian association in each state organises group renewal by bringing them over to your stats for.a fee.

This is the embassy website....

You will not have to drop it with immigration you can travel with it. But note that when you start the processing here you will still have to travel back to Nigeria to collect it personally.No one can collect it for you. This is what is hapening to my sister now.she came back for the christmas hols from southafrica and renewed her passport in december.because her passport expires in april,even till now her passport is not yet out.
They went to southafrican embassay to see if they can get it frm there,but they declined and said since the process has already started from nigeria,she must have to go back to nigeria to collect it. Imagine wasting how much on fight ticket just to come back and collect passport.

Hello House,

I have just been contacted by GSM Brisbane. They asked for:
1. Evidence of change of name for all other names (for me and my husband) mentioned in my application and
2. PCC for these names.

[b][/b]Please i need urgent help with these questions

Can we use court affidavits as evidence for the name change?
Can one PCC serve for up to 3 names of one person?
Also can we get PCC (Nigeria) without an international passport bearing each of the names? These names are not officially in use, but appear on birth certificate and degree result.

please am an doing a masters research in aussie already but wanna apply for the PR. i have engineering undergraduate cert from naija FUTO

You can ask your questions. There are several people who have a positive EA assessment that can be of help. What discipline is your engineering degree? Have you checked if it is on the SOL or CSOL?

Start preparing for English test, you need IELTS 6 in each part for EA assessment.

There's virtually every needed information for anyone trying to assess with EA on this platform, if you don't mind just try and read through this thread then ask questions on areas you need further clarification.

I will appreciate your kind assistance

Why should anybody PM you. As a research student, you have resources at your disposal on the thread, yet you are asking someone to pm you.

Being in the country already is no advantage for anybody to give you a customised guidance.

You were part of the group advised to be patient and come on PR instead of student visa but you were too much in a hurry because you had plenty money to spend...

If you are ready, you will read and follow through with info on the thread.

No one should provoke Bellong for us ohh!!!

No one wants read and help themselves. Is always a case of "Oya bring spoon, Oya open mouth...oya take pap"


@mamajazi, what do you have to say on this matter.

Hello House,

I have just been contacted by GSM Brisbane. They asked for:
Evidence of change of name for all the other names (for me and accompanying applicants) mentioned in my application and
PCC for these names.

Can we use court affidavits for the name change?
Can one PCC serve for up to 3 names of one person?
Also can they give a PCC (Nigeria) without an international passport (copy) for each of the names?

I think @jamson got a PCC for his spouse with change of name documents. I want to believe you can do the same, go to alagbon with evidence of name change, the PCC you have and your international passport.
As per proof, I want to believe you have affidavit to show for the name change, get it notarized and also if you published in the papers you can attach that as evidence.

favouredme:



I wonder if anyone knows if BABCOCK falls under institution 1 or 2. Has anyone had a BABCOCK degree assessed as equivalent to an Australia Bsc ?
I checked the aforementioned country education profile and it appears I'm required to pay AUD 318 to get this info, anyone with access to this platform please? Willing to pay ( though less than 318). Thanks

I don't know what it falls on, but ACS considered my Babcock 4 year degree to be an associate degree.

Thanks a lot incemay. The issue is that i don't have international passports bearing each of these names except for that in the name i now bear after marriage. Alagbon contact is saying we have to provide int. passport in those names (i pray and hope our current passports can cover for this) and that they will issue us PCC for each name.
Do we have to notarize the court affidavit?

If you don't have international passport in your maiden name, do the PCC for your current name. Send an email explaining your circumstances that you can only get PCC with a passport. The request is ridiculous though.

No need to notarize a court documents. That is a notarization in itself.

Not at all.
I am opting for CPA.

Thanks for the comment.
May the good Lord grant you tripple honour (more than peeps that study PPE in OAU) on all the three fronts and you will have cause to choose as you prefer.
