Hello Family, it's been a while. Lots of pages to read through.....
Please have it at the back of your hearts that 'I dy always pray for us make the Aussie hustle end in grant'

@Ozymigrant- it's been a while. God is in charge anyway.

For PCC its best to do it when you have gotten your invitation to apply for visa and ready to pay and submit cos it only lasts for 3 months. Same applies for medicals, there's a number that will be generated from your immi account which you can only access when you have been invited to apply, you'll take the number to the medical center. Based on my experience your medicals determine your entry date (I stand to be corrected) so its best to do medicals like 4 days before you pay, by that time your results would have been uploaded and you'll be submitting a complete application.

@MofePR,
My occupation is Technical Sales Representative. I studied BSc food science and tech. And I have MBA. Also I did my NYSC in a bank as customer service officer.

You can't combine IELTS result with DIBP.

@Don4j,

What is your occupation?

@Rooneyboy,

You have not responded, I may not wait longer.

OzyMigrant:



PS; Our Nigerian PCC usually have 3-month validity. Fortunately, DIBP still takes it as one year, so no need to panic like I did when I got my PCC from Alagbon and saw 3-months validity. In the same vain, my UK PCC didn't carry an expiry date, but I guess DIBP will still deem it valid for 1 year.

Rett0:


Bro occupational ceiling will determine the next step. We are still trying to achieve 20points in Pte. Looks like we will switch to ielts

toslad:
I have notarised OOU Syllabus.

PM me so I can send to you.

Hope you are not assessing with Vetassess o?

OzyMigrant:


I guess you guys have resolved to go with the initial EA assessment outcome.......right?

20points in IELTS is achievable though, but it's tricky. They are fond of always wanting to withhold 0.5 from one section of the exam. In mine (R8/L8/S8/W7.5), the 0.5 was taking from the section I deemed best in terms of my performance during the exam.

If Oga is getting up to 10points in PTE already, he might want to push harder in preparation (taking mock tests) and giving it another shot.

Cottyekundayo:

NO!
IELTS and TOEFL alone

OzyMigrant:


Both medicals and PCC last for 1 year by DIBP standard. Both are better done as close as possible to visa lodging date so as to push IED as further as possible from grant date. If an applicant's case is not finalized until one of medicals or PCC expires.........they are likely to be asked to repeat the assessment by CO.

IED is determined by the expiry date of PCC or medicals (which ever comes first).

Don4J:
Good morning everyone. Please my occupation fall under vetasses as an assessing body. My IELTS result is 6.0, 6.5,6.5,6.5 and I want to proceed with the application. What are my chances? Also, I observed that there is option for state nomination for job could this option be favorabe for my case. Thank you and I expect your candid response.

nikkycool:
Hello gurus in the house,please can this my result be used for job that requires competent english.Because on the information for English language it is written that you need to have Competent in each score or Competent plus overall.My result is S7.5 W6.5 R6.0 L5.5 which makes it overall 6.5.Please I need clarification on this if I can use it for my job that requires 6 in each band or 6.5 overall.Thank you.

chytai:
@Lawland

Please which assessment level is NABTEB (advanced level) certificate?

lawland:
Please can you be more specific?

Eladua:


If they said 'or competent plus overall' then you can use it. I used my IELTS SWLR 7 7.5 7 6 to get a state nomination that requires competent plus in each band or Proficient overall.

adeolabilkis002:
Hello E_fam.God bless you all.
lawland ....please what section does Yabatech falls

chytai:


NABTEB (advance level) certificate from Government technical college.

oscarpellenchy:


I think your best bet is to first confirm if such certificate is assessed by Australian standard and on which level is it placed, before making the huge payment of $1000. You can also contact @ Lawland to assist you to check that. Had similar issue with Trade Test Certificate recently before it was discovered that the certificate is not assessible by Australian standard.

lawland:
Advanced national Technical certificate is equivalent to Cert IV if the course duration is one year and obtained after national Technical certificate.

lawland:
Section 1

koleefem05:

What is your occupation?
Your IELTS result can be used for assessment, but does not give you any point in your dibp application.
State nomination is 5 points, but different states also have their requirements so you'll have to read about them to know if you meet their requirements.
More details from you will enable housemtates to help you better. Regards

ogbevireo:


Bros,
so Yabatech is rated better than Uniben?

Please, are the criteria for the sectioning mentioned?

I would suggest we contribute $1 to a purse and buy this holy grail.
