mostouc:


Thanks for your responses. however, I have no intention of moving with my partner now(so that 5 point is out). but can I replace it with 5 point from regional/state nomination. What do u think?

As for claiming 15 point in Experience, I sure I will cos I finished since 2006 and I have been working ever since in IT support section and system administration. my B.Sc is also Computer Science.
I also want to ask if my certification exams(ITIL and MCSA) will added any point to to me?
Thanks for your swift response

Good day house. I need guidance on how to go about my case. I have OND in electrical/electronics engineering in 2006, but I have 11 years plus work experience in a manufacturing company where my job roles have been tailored to the requirements by the general fitter skill (mechanical skill). Will this be acceptable by the TRA or what do you think I can do? Thanks in advance.

Pls how much is engineeraustralia charging to evaluate results?

Ejadike:
No, just HND

bellong:


The information is available on Engineer Australia's website

gakintan:
@Mcslize Am also a chemical engineer, have started your application.

@Fatima04,

It is a tough call but the only way to find out is to get in touch with VETASSES.

I am not sure if they still do their advisory service. If they still do, do that first.

mehn? This is a hard one o

Does it mean that no HND holder has ever travelled via this Express skill entry?

Hello Everyone. Thanks to Oga Bellong who created this thread. You are forever blessed Sir. To others who have helped selflessly and who are still actively contributing, thanks too.

On the 28th of March,2018 i got a negative assessment from AIQS. I had given up.I was advised by my case officer to appeal. On this thread i got in-touch with @qstomiwa and he guided me through my appeal process. He did this selflessly.He went through all my appeal documents and repackaged them. God bless you Tomiwa.

I followed Tomiwa's advice and recommendations from the assessors of my first application strictly and appealed. I got a positive assessment on 9th of August, 2018. My UniUyo BSC Quantity Surveying Degree that was previously not recognised because UniUyo was not recognised by CEP online was now recognized. My Unilag Masters Degree was recognized. My Work experience was recognised from when i got my BSC. QS Degree. Tomiwa was the brain behind the repackaging.

Thanks to @qstomiwa once again and to everyone helping in all ways.

fatima04:
Hello house, please has anyone assessed as a mathematician,actuary or statistician?

Please help assess this situation? The current JD suits that of a mathematician and actuary (since they are almost the same thing). The person has got Bsc in mathematics from a Tier 1 uni and to get a positive assessment from VETASSeS for actuary, they can consider this based on relevant skilled employment which she has.

The issue is mathematician is on STSOL while Actuary is MLTSSL and therefore open to more state nomination and 189.

The question is if the person nominates Mathematician she is limited to Victoria,Tasmania and NT and getting the POF stated is difficult, any suggestions on how to go about this?

If she nominates actuary it's more open to NSW and the likes but stands a risk of negative assessment.

Hence the dilemma. Just need advise from more experienced people on how to go about making a better choice.

Thank you.

Good evening everyone. Good news first. I just got 20 points from my second PTE attempt. Now I have 65 points. Occupation is mechanical engineering. I know my chances for 189 are very slim. Can I apply for 489 and 190, and still put in for the 189?
Secondly, I did not claim work experience for my EA assessment but I graduated in 2014 and I have been working for about 1 year and 8 months (full time) and another 1 year and 5 months as an intern at the same place before full time employment. Making it a little over 3 years altogether. Can I claim points for this?

dayo4:
Good day everyone, I have done my assessment with EA and didn't get the outcome I requested for, instead I was given Engineering Technologist outcome. I don't have work experience and currently unemployed. As it stands, the maximum points I can claim is 65 (Age-30, Qual-15, Eng-20). I was about to rewrite PTE for 20pts but I got discouraged because only Engineering Technologist with very high points get invited coupled with the fact that most states/regions are taking Engineering Technologist off their list. I'm demoralized, I don't know what I can do. House, please I need suggestions...

jayooh:

Of course they have. But OND-HND favours the engineering/technical/trades occupations.
