JAAN02: yeah I paid for fast track. Like I said there was XMAS break till like 7th of Jan this year then I had a lot of back and forth with them as per my Pension .In fact I appealed because my 10yrs exp was reduced to 7.final decision was in June. my stage right now is stage hoping and praying to God to get invitation to apply. VIC,SA and WA in that order are where I am putting my faith. VIC has been the one with a tiny light of hope as they have contacted most of us eligible that we will be considered for selection Telecoms Engr |

@tunlex01 I received a mail from VIC titled ROI UPDATE. it says I meet the eligibility criteria and will be considered for nomination in the next round. I am trying to be calm and not attach any importance to this...please does this carry any weight/hope what does it mean by implication? thanks for your guidance always. God bless you |

@tunlexo1 I don't know if you have perused the updated WA eligibility criteria. suddenly ,I did not see the job contract clause for offshore again .In fact the while update was majorly silent as per offshore applicants except you read deep through WASMOL1&2.now all I see is job offer contract is for 190 and not 491...kindly help clarify if you have heard or seen this 1 Like |

Saynoomore: so some states like NSW,SA ,VIC.etc will still require you to go to their own state portal and fill what they call Registration Of Interest (ROI) that they will use alongside the skillselect EOI by the fed govt/DHA.One of the information they will ask you there is your EOI ID.It is important to note these states so one does not just fill the EOI and not fill their ROI |

Saynoomore: fortunately VIC has not made getting a job an eligibility criteria for their newly released 22-23 guidelines.in fact theirs looks most attainable of all the ones I have seen so far. you may quickly need to do a ROI on their site as it is now open....goodluck! 1 Like |

Saynoomore: yeah I am sure of WA and TAS .In fact TAS said they will give you 491 automatically if you have any sort of job secured already .I don't know how this will work and really it is discouraging .I have applied for so many jobs as a Telecommunication Engineer with 10yes experience but once the employer or agent see you are offshore, they will not contact you again. yes NT as per PF but jobhave they updated their site? |

[quote author=JAAN02 post=114405613][/quote] chief don't sleep on this profile o! on top of my head ,you have roughly 75 points(inclusive of 5 for spouse English and 15 for a 491 nomination). get your skill assessment sorted out on time with EA. pay for fast track if you can especially if you intend applying for this 22-23 year that has not fully begun because of quota allocation. EA can be painfully slow (I paid Dec 22 ,2021 and got my result Mar 15,2022 though XMAS closure was a factor and had some back and forth with them) I don't know how old your IETLS is but make it fast! this kind result no dey easy to get twice o...lol All the best! |

@tunlex01...I greet you the Aussie oracle Please I would like to seek a clarification .I have gone through WA guidelines for 22-23 year and seen some videos too. There seems to be a caveat that says for offshore applicants to stand a chance of being nominated, they need to have a job/contract for at least 12 months. Now I do not know if I am the one that is not getting the context well as this is also a requirement for onshore applicants(who are of more priority) or same applies to offshore too. And if so, how do you think that will work ?I mean like I have to look for a job say on seek.com.au and let the employer know I am applying for a 491.something like that...please help shed light on this if truly the requirement means an offshore applicant must have a job first Thanks for all you do and may God ease your own affairs too. |

tunlex01: 1.Please attach a screenshot showing the information of July 2012 to 214....see attached with the lump sum description in red mark 2.You should not have accepted the letter ...I actually sent them anther mail to please state that.no replies and I did not want to wait any longer to return the docs to EA plus I felt logic would prevail with a ref letter from the same firm already stating my start and stop dates. For the missing ones ,I cannot blame the CO truly but again I felt the ref letter with start and stop dates would suffice. Funny thing is my employment period between Feb 2016-Jun 2019 also had missing remittances but dude granted the whole 3 yrs. 3.Beats me why he had to cap my current work place as May 2021.yes ,my ref letter indicates when I joined and that I currently work there. again, the guy must have relied on my pension statement alone to draw his conclusion because the last month in that doc is Mar 2022 though no remittance has been paid there yet;last payment was Feb 2022(they did a global search on me between June 2014 and Mar 2022 as that is how the always pull statements)...I believe CO must have read Mar 2022 as May 2021(just me thinking though) I have already fired them a mail stating my strong reservation and letting them know this is a pure case of oversight .I have also put a call across to them; customer care agent confirmed my mail had been seen and referred to the CO to give reasons or correct. I am hoping this will not drag into an appeal(I was advised there is a call for review first before an appeal).I also let them know this is more like a complaint. I am hoping/praying they can re-issue another one correcting the errors.(500AUSD for appeal this time no be beans and I no fit let go of the 5 points I swear ) Well I thought as much that I won't be able to claim 8yrs on skillselect so i have to wait till this is all sorted out...thanks for always dropping your inputs and advice. And pardon my long tale all the time; I always like to clarify issues and put in right context in order to get the right advice/response

tunlex01: Hello the great Aussie oracle! I have come to consult again ...please pardon my epistle again! So I eventually got a positive outcome from EA in what seems like a pyrrhic victory not with the back and forth on my pension statement account. However, I am really miffed again! This assessor must be sent by village people. He chopped off 3yrs of my 10yrs because of same pension statement! So I worked at a firm between July 2012 and January 2016.My appointment letter and a reference letter from same organization stating the years I worked were submitted as part of my documents. Also was a lot of payslips covering those years. The firm did not pay my pension between July 2012 and October 2014 but we eventually opened a pension account in October 2014 and they paid all the backlog into the account in January 2015.This is clearly seen in the statement of account as July 2012-October 2014.They also continued remitting subsequent pension payments thereon. Now ,when Leadway gave me a cover letter, they only stipulated when my account was opened with them(January 2015) to when the firm stopped paying in(October 2015).I categorically explained on the portal that the statement contains a lumpsum of backlogs from July 2012 that I started working to October 2014.I also feel the company failed to remit the remaining months I spent with them but then I have a ref letter from same firm showing my start and stop dates!(oyinbo sef no dey use number 6 sometimes sha o)In fact my current work experience which is July 2019-till date with relevant backing documents is stated as July 2019-May 2021!the dud has chopped off another 1 year when I am still currently working In the outcome letter, the assessor only started counting my years of experience from January 2015!(actually counted jan 2015-October 2015 for me for a place where I worked between July 2012 nd Jan 2016!!!)he obviously only relied on my pension statement ;so what is the essence of the ref letter 1. Instead of an appeal(for now),can I reach them to complain? 2.do you have an idea how long an appeal takes? 3. can I still claim my 8yrs and above on skill select which I already calculated as 15 points ?since they will still request from me documents to back up my claims or are they relying on EA analysis for my years of experience? why this annoys/pains me is I have 85 points but with years of experience less than 8,it reduces to 80...I do not have the luxury of age to wait till January to clock 8 years(according to what EA assessed for me) .e b like say na frustrated assessor pick my case I await your advice based on the above. thanks for your support always |

verocharles: thanks for your input...my payslips over the last 10years of work experience I am claiming all have my full name and the name of my employers.they are saying a secondary document should be a pension statement, a tax receipt and another state board document(cant quite get hold of that).of all these, my pension statement is the easiest for me to get.Starting the process to get my tax receipt is a process that I dont think I can make the 21-03-22 deadline that I now have to submit. The pension company insists the pension statement cannot carry individual company name remitting .I am seeking for a cover letter from them as supporting document.I just feel the CO is overreaching ...you already have all my payslips with item named pension,you have all my employment letters and also ref letters from the companies telling you the period I worked...why this again.I am really tired meeeen!I am hoping this will not end in an appeal.I believe my outcome is ready just the last doc is why he is holding it back....it is just a technical ground and has nothing to do with the quality of my application.as per the bank statement;the CO defines a secondary document as pension account,tax receipt etc)so I am not sure they will take it |

haryourdayG: hello .please did you submit your pension statement as a secondary document? if so did the CO ask for the statement to include years of employment and employer's name? I am currently in a back and forth with my assessor who insists the pension statement must have these. Leadway pensure said that is not possible...I am trying to get a cover letter/mail from them to state a pension statement format does not include these to further support the pension statement |

@tunlex01 greetings to the great Aussie oracle! I am currently in a back&forth with EA.I am getting assessed as a telecommunications engineer.I made my payment inclusive of a fast track since 22-12-21 though the site already announced that process would only begin on 10-01-22 because of the festive period(fair enough).I got a mail on 27-01-22 that the process had begun but they required a secondary document covering my employment periods of over 10years(they even advised me in that correspondence that there could be an outcome possibility of Telecoms Network Engineer having gone through my CEs and professional engineering summary and wanted a nod for so which I said yes.I submitted my payslips across all these years carrying pension remission on 03-02-22.The CO uploaded the portal again and advised a payslip is not a secondary document and gave me the options as per MSA booklet .I got my pension statement summary covering all these years and uploaded again on 05-02-22. I was counting days as fast track is supposed to be 20days but after a while I uploaded a complaint on the EA customer service portal on 20-02-22 enquiring why the process was taking long. I got a response from the CO requesting for the same document I had earlier uploaded claiming the first one was not seen .I uploaded it again and put a call through to them. They assured no documents would be required again .A mail also came in on 27-02-22 an outcome would soon be ready. Again after counting days(40 working days from 10-01-22 and 26working days from 27-01-22 that the first update came) and no outcome,I upload another query. To my chagrin, the CO updated on the portal saying they would not accept my pension statement account because it does not have the names of my employers. This is after explaining on the portal while uploading that the pension company does not segment pension remittance according to employment period and employer name .I even uploaded a supporting document called welcome letter that carries my company name. 1. I have gone to the pension company but they insist that is the usual template anywhere and they cannot generate such with the info. 2. I have mailed their customer service with this request and a possible cover letter;I want them to state they cannot and will attach this as a supporting document....do you think this will fly? 3.have you had any of such experience? my friend used this same document and he never had any issue .he is in Aussie now...how best can I approach this 4. what is the possible worst case scenario ..I am confident my application is good I just dont know why this CO is being impossible; all my documents are verifiable and legit 5. the 2 other options of tax and state board(I dont quite the that doc name) are documents that will require a long time to process and get that is why I am sticking to my pension statement 6.I dont know why I only get request for documents only when I fill a complaint on the portal..I am honestly hoping I can fight for a refund of my fast track payment because it is almost not worth it now without a fault of mine(hoping /praying I get a positive outcome with my 10 years intact) kindly advise based on above ...apologies it is a long one but na as e dey really pain me..time is running!!! |

@tunlex01 thanks for your updates. The offshore conditions for SA are really crazy! for example I have an assessment as telecoms network engineer with 85 points(10yrs experience and proficiency plus English) but the point required is 90 .now I can see there is telecom network planner with required point of 65 and IELTS of proficiency plus which fortunately I have.my questions are; 1. can I apply using telecom network planner role? 2. what is really the definition of closely related occupation? AZSCO code or if the occupation is assessed by same body? please note below from SA site Occupations with the same Skills Assessing Authority are closely related occupations |

@tunlex01...great work you have been doing here. God bless you. Please I need a clarification. I can see NSW has opened to offshore for certain occupation and years of experience .I want to know if this is for 190 alone as cited here https://www.sbs.com.au/language/english/nsw-opens-permanent-residency-doors-for-offshore-migrants-announces-major-changes-to-visa-requirements. nothing on the NSW site speaks to of this opening is for 190 and 491 or 190 alone.

I am a strong admirer of SLS but I have to say he goofed by not getting is facts right before writing such a sensitive letter.I am neither a pro or anti-GEJ but this move is just what normally happens.the current harshness of the political clime vis-a-vis 2015 only makes SLS a right-on-time scapegoat. One only wishes this is how the president deals with anyone that has erred.However,it should be noted. That 50 or 12,the fact remains there is a case of misappropriation;one of the very many cases I should say. |
