Good evening @tunlex01 I actually have my IELTS LS88, RW8.5 7. I attempted the AITSL assessment late last year and my qualification was considered unsuitable. What are my options of migrating to Aussie as a teacher? Can I try going for the any state assessment instead?

PS: I graduated from Unilorin and my IELTS expires next week

Skills assessment by AITSL is for migration/visa. I am not sure there is any exemption for state assessment as you will still need AITSL if you want to get a visa except AITSL assessment is not required for 482 visa.

Firebomber:


Boss man, please help put me through, I just login to the website now, I'm a graduate with a bachelor in surveying and Geo informatics and also 5 years experience working in construction as a Surveyor. Please can you put me through

Login into which website?

Hello folks, i am a Pharmacist and I have experience as both hospital and industrial Pharmacist but I have a constraint limiting me from proceeding with this Australia immigration . The problem is that I would be 45 years old by April next year and I know that the maximum age for Australian PR is 45.I want to seek for advice from elders in the house if there are alternate routes to PR for people of my age. Thanks

If you have funds, apply for priority processing with Vetassess for Industrial pharmacist or Pharmacy technician. If you get your documents ready and apply on the day Vetassess resumes priority in January, you may be able to get your result in less than 10 days and apply for EOI then follow up with emails to different state for nomination.

Firstly , thank you for taking out time to respond to my enquiries. I really appreciate you.

To your questions; I wrote general and my teaching practice was at a secondary school. Also , My certificate says Bachelor of Science Education.
Thanks.

Okay. You need to write IELTS Academic - LS88, RW77.

stevepeter2100:
Good day everyone

Kindly help me check this, for my partner.

Uniben 2015: Medical Physiology

Bank: 2 years - Internal 2 years Risk and Compliance with professional certificates.

I noticed that the job description for Internal Auditor is very similar to her role as a risk and compliance officer.

Can she do skills assessment for internal auditors? What’s the probability of scaling?

How many years was the duration of the degree?
No, risk/compliancd cannot get a positive assessment as an internal audit.

blackbriar:


if you have your a copy of your transcript.
Best to go a federal court , notarise every page of the transcript (certified true copy) and send for Skill Assessment.
Waiting for naija
university is a longggggggggggg thing.

he doesnt even need to notarise it
He/she can just upload it

Opemipo2107:
Good evening wonderful people. I am new on this thread and really struggling to understand the process. So I’ll just put my profile here for assessment.
30 years old , university of Lagos ( chemistry education ). 4 years experience as chemistry teacher. I wrote IELTS already L 9 - R 8 - S 8.5 W 7. I also speak French at intermediate level and have a certificate to show my competence. Single and no kids.
Please is this profile eligible ? Thanks

Absolutely smashing profile. Was your IELTS Academic or general? Was your teaching pracctice in a secondary school?

acapugo:
Good day
i need an advice my fellow japarians!

i am really confused about this TRANSCRIPT issue.
For the TRA Skilled Assessment, i know that Transcript is a requirement BUT my question is this,
will I attach my transcript with other documents, or MY School will be the ones to send the transcript to them?

thanks.

Just scan your student copy. That's all you need to do.

Questions for those who came with their spouse on a dependent student visa

1. Did you travel with the main applicant for the first entry? If No, how long did you wait before you traveled to Australia?
2. Have you traveled outside Australia alone on the dependent visa and what was the duration?

@tunlex01 and others

1. it's up to you. it can be 6 months, less or more.
2. you can travel anytime as a dependent, there is no restriction as long as the visa is valid. Just note that your travel times will also be factored into calculation when you want to apply for citizenship especially if you stay longer outside AUstralia. it may delay your eligibility if you plan to apply for Australia citizenship

How much will it cost to move

you can read that in this guide.

Morp:

1. Not advisable. Proving that your generous uncle would leave you and everyone directly related to him to sponsor someone that just married into your family is not that straight forward and your application should be as simple as possible.

2. If you arrive Australia on student visa, you can transition to 491/190 without problem and you won't be the first. However, submitting 2 application at the same time isn't advisable.

In addition, @stevepeter2100, the timeline will determine if you can apply.
If you have a student application in progress which have not been granted yet and you get invitation for skilled visa, if you apply for the skilled visa, your student visa will be declined due to GTE as you will no longer be considered as a genuine temporary entrant for a student visa. However if you have landed in Australia on student visa, you are good.

Also consider your circumstance. You are currently claiming points as a single, ensure you update your EOI as soon as you get married because you are not allowed to enter into a relationship or get married if you get ITA for 491/190 until after you have landed in Australia. That's an easy refusal of your skilled visa for the CO.

If you eventually want to go ahead with the student application, ensure that you pick a uni in the state that has your occupation on their list and you can meet their criteria. The moment you land onshore, your chances go from 8 of 8 states to 1 of 8 states because other state will not nominate you except you live, work or study in their state. Only WA made exception to this rule in this financial year and that may or may not continue next year.

Just a few points to take note.

Hkana:
Hi Tunlex01, may I send a pm?

sure

Chibudinho55:
Good morning, please I'm new to this thread. I wanna relocate to Australia through the study route, after going through all threads, i still find some of the processes difficult. I would like if there's any WhatsApp or telegram group i can join, or anyone willing to respond to my questions.

My plans are to start now by gathering all my docs ahead of 2024/25 by God's Grace.

this thread is solely for skilled migration. You can visit the student thread for student application details.

Andychinedu:
Please bro...
Abeg no vex oo

Which is cheaper between the study visa and the skilled workers' visa...?

Thank you

Skilled visa i will say.

Andychinedu:
Please I want to know the chances of being accepted in this category…


Please anyone…?

I have a BSc in Sociology and Anthropology
And a PD in Criminology
I have a 4years-present working experience with the Nigerian Correctional Service
Thank You

these occupations are all employer sponsored visas and the likelihood of getting a job as a security consultant from outside Australia is almost zero.

I think i have raised Social Professional NEC occupation with you. That's where Parole officer occupation is, however it's a level 1 occupation which requires a bachelors degree.

Is there anyone who has assessed a level 1 occupation with Vetassess with BSc (tier 2) + PGD?

Tomorrow28:
For number 2 below

What else should I provide after sending employment letter, reference letter, promotion letter, CAC certificate, CV, organogram, pay slip, tax certificate.

Please family, help me with what else I can send to Vetassess. My skill is Cafe Manager.

@Tunlex01 and others

I thought their request is clear.
Provide all that is asked for. They just need clear evidence to indicate the company exists. Bills you pay like PHCN, delivery payment, your company bank statement, pictures etc

AdebimpeOceanna:
Good day to you all, please I have a question, I want to come over to Australia for my master degree in quantity surveying, I am a female, I don't want to return back, my question is, is quantity surveying a good career in Australia, I mean, it is very easy getting jobs after study and will be easy to get work permit and leave in Austral after masters degree or should I switch profession. Thanks

QS is a fantastic job here.
If you have experience, I will advise you go through skilled migration instead of student visa except if getting a masters is really something you want.

angie88:
pls this needs to be clarified.
From their checklist, it indicated that other other qualification leading to a 4 yr course should b equivalent to their AQF 6 which is associate degree + ITE. Pls @tunlex, if u knw anyone that has a negative outcome u tell us, or if there's a place we can get the information of what u r saying,u let us knw

I have reviewed the report again. It's the ITE that has to be AQF7.
The person actually submitted NCE and AQF7 and still got a negative assessment.
I have recommended applying again with just the AQF7 degree

Cest2023:
Greetings to everyone, please I need clarification on something I saw on Vetassess website.

Qualification and employment criteria
continued...
A positive assessment of both qualification level and
employment duration is required for a positive Skills
Assessment outcome.
Qualification
AQF Diploma or higher qualification*
Highly relevant major fields of study include:
» Building Surveying


I am a civil engineer though my job description is building Inspector. I didn’t do building surveying in school, what I did is engineering surveying.

Will this factor affect my assessment?


Cc tunlex01 and other gurus in the house.

It may pass for the occupation, so give it a go.

Was the engineering surveying in your transcript?

Chinzzyy2:


I really don't know. I'm just saying that the ITE is what aitsl insists should be on AQF 7 and other degrees can be on AQF 6. I thought maybe you know someone that has gotten a negative assessment with a tier 2 degree +pgde that's why the new update was put out. I also don't know.

I have just reviewed the report again from AITSL. You are right, It's the initial teacher education that must be AQF 7. Other non-education courses can be AQF6 and above.

I will modify the update.

@laurelbae, so I don’t debar you from assessing, pls give it a go with AITSL. Since you have a Pgde with that’s AQF 8. I’m hopeful it will pass.

Chinzzyy2:
Sorry o, this is contradicting what I understood from what was stated on the website in my opinion. Aitsl specified that the ITE should be on level 7, not that the first degree should be on level 7. Please correct me if I'm wrong

Are you saying with a tier 2 qualification but with Pgde, it will pass for assessment right?

judemurphy:
Please I just applied for TRA with 5 years work experience,do I stand a chance of having a good score points with just 5 years work experience

it involves other points you can get. What's the breakdown of your total points?

judemurphy:
Good evening Bro, please I don't have a debit or credit card but can I use someone else's card to pay

yes you can

laurelbae:

First degree was 4yrs..
Nnamdi Azikwe University

YOu are not eligible then as your first degree is AQF 6 - Associate degree. AITSL requires first qualification to be AQF 7 - bachelors degree

update; pls give it a shot
The evidence I have is for people with NCE or BEd from tier 2 qualification.
Your degree + Pgde may fly.

Update For Teachers - November 2023
*SC means scenario, ITE means Initial Teacher education
SC1: B.Ed from Tier 1 University = positive assessment. (AQF 7 + ITE)✅
SC2: B.Ed from Tier 2 University (4 year course) + Pgde = Negative assessment (AQF 6 + ITE)❌
SC3: B.Ed from Tier 2 University (4 year course) + M.Ed = negative assessment (AQF 6)❌
SC4: BSc or B.A from Tier 2 University (4 years course) + Pgde = likely positive assessment (AQF 6 +ITE)✅
SC5: B.Sc/BTech/BEng from Tier 2 University (5 years course) + Pgde = positive assessment (AQF 7 + ITE)✅
SC6: BSc/BA/BTech/BEng from a Tier 1 University + Pgde = positive (AQF 7 + ITE)✅

If you have NCE and you graduated from a tier 1 Uni, pls do not include the NCE details in your application.

Hi guys, been considering Australia for a while now.
Bsc in International Studies and Diplomacy
MSc Data Analytics with Technologies
Currently 1 year experience in Data Administrator/Data Analyst
Do u think i would be able to pass skills assessment?
Thanks.

No due to your qualification. You will need at least 6 years experience for ACS except you have an occupation that's assessed by Vetassess (they require 12 months experience only)

Famarinze:

Does that pharmacist need to send their B.pharm transcript for assessment to vetassess or not. We really need clarification on this, seniors. Thank you.

you can upload your transcript and certificate directly on your Vetassess portal. I also made of video on it.

I have similar situation. @Remix01, @vbabs, @Tunlex01, @Dollytee007, @Vincentosa
Am request to submit tax documents from Lagos State from my office, but my office is based in Abuja, during my stay in Lagos from 2008 till 2013 I worked in private firms and they don't have tax of pension scheme for workers, so I have no tax documents from Lagos State during that period, but my current job from 2013 till date with a reputable construction company has pension and tax, I guess they just have seen that from my payslip because they asked for Lagos State and delta state tax documents under my current job name, not under the name of the companies I worked during my stay in Lagos, I never worked in Delta, I only lived there as my place of birth.

Please I need someone to guide me on the best way to reply, I don't know if they are asking for this current job tax documents?

it should be for the current job cos Skills assessment only covers experience within the last 10 years. (ACS is an exception for people go through RPL)

So provide the tax statement or pension from 2013 till date from FIRS (being an FCT resident) to the assessor and add a few lines in the comment box explaining that tax is based on the location of the worker in Nigeria.

Did you read the MSA booklet before applying because this was stated clearly as one of the key requirements.
