I finally passed my PTE test LRSW-82/85/86/83 and I have updated my EOI selecting only SA.

I would like to know if I can make the nomination application payment now ($AU 200) while still gathering documents because my occupation is currently on low availability.

Any SA applicant, please come to my aid

Hello everyone,
I recently got a negative assessment with Vetassess for Marketing Specialist. Apparently I didn't prepare thoroughly so my BSC was assessed as AQF Associate degree.
I want to reassess now as customer service manager.

Question: 1. Has anyone done this before?
2. Will VETASSESS refer to the earlier documents I submitted for the first one.

I need help pls.
Thanks

Assessment of your degree as an Associate degree does not have anything to do with your preparation. There are tier 1 and tier 2 university/course categorisation in the Aussie journey. Your school/course must have got you the AQF Associate degree.

What's your course of study and the university you attended?

Q1: I have assessed as a Customer service manager and got a positive assessment.
Q2: I don't have an idea

Please guys I need your help. I have been trying to register for PTE exam but I couldn't make progress with the registration. The site keeps declining my GTbank ATM card. I have gone to the bank and they told me everything is OK from their end. Please how else can I register for the exam?

You can't use a Naira card to pay for the PTE exam. Get a USD denominated card or buy voucher from spyroxy1

Age is 20-35 not 30-35

solin:
The precise date is 29th November, you must be between the ages of 30-35 years with two years work experience, qualifications must be equivalent to NZ, You must be able to speak English, etc.

but there are other assessing bodies for accountant such as CPAA or CA..be encouraged.

desertboom:
Please, can someone register PTE without International Passport?
If yes, can one also use like drivers license or National ID to identify himself and write the exam?
Thanks

No, you cant.

Try and obtain the passport, you can check this link

GreenMavro:
I think he meant after paying online will he be allowed to take the test at any location of his choice

Oh, I didnt know that was his enquiry. At the point of making payment, you have to indicate the center you would like to take the test.

That's all I can say.

BKings:
Surulere centre. Online is just 46k, but they said you must pay through their centres as online is no longer working

Online still works. I have paid with my USD card several times this month.

desertboom:
Please, if one should use dollar account how much dollars does the exam fee go for?

Depends on your bank. Budget like $128

Dozegie:
I have tried using my mastercard and visa card but it doesn't work.....
Please who has PTE voucher for sale

A naira or dollar card?
Only dollar cards go through.

I did mine there... It was a bit crowdy, so i struggled a bit in the speaking. If possible, you could start a bit late, so that when other candidates finish their speaking section ehich is the first section, you have a good level of quiet when having yours. Every other thing is pretty standard pte center structure -like the clogged cubicles in the small room.

NB.
My second test was in bellaz and I arrived a bit late, so that's how I was able to share the above experience

Thanks for this.

My Vetassess result landed this afternoon with mixed feeling.

It was positive (AQF Associate degree, education highly relevant) but my experience slashed from 4.2 to 1.2 years.

So I have to rewrite English test.

In another related info, I decided to register on Skill select but I have few clarifications

1. Under education, there was no option for Associate degree. Which option should I select from the dropdown?
2. In my assessment result, one of my roles before I became a Team lead was adjudged to be irrelevant to the occupation I selected, though I feel it's closely related. Under the work experience tab, can I add it? Also, should I answer NO to the question "is the job related to your nominated occupation"?

Thanks.

Alphadoor:
I have written at both centers twice each
judging from my own experience I give thumbs up to bellas as their environment is quiet and center is well organized, system glitches were minimal or non existent.

I think I will just flow with Bellaz. Thanks for the info

Alphadoor:
which of them.

As bellong said SA is pretty straight forward and chances are high if you meet the criteria on paper

Thanks, I have gotten the clarification I seek.

bellong:
Is your Internal Auditor your occupation?

The advice was for the occupation she is nominating. For state nomination, it is on individual basis.

If it is SA you are planning to apply for nomination, you are 90% sure of getting it as long as you follow their checklist.

Goodluck.

No, I was only asking for a friend who is planning to apply for nomination as an Internal Auditor due to his points lower than 80.

Alphadoor:
SA has a document checklist on their website, its pretty much straight forward to use.

Start prepping with the list ASAP and the cost is 200aud

Thanks for the reply. I have a list of the requirements but I only need clarification on some of them.

Creamychic:
Alright, thanks. Was your experience not good at Bellaz? I plan on writing there. Hopefully there'll be fewer people.

The experience was very okay. I was the only one who wrote on that day. Just remember to cover the marker that will be given to you when you are not using it. I forgot to cover mine and I missed some words in the summarize spoken text before I was given another marker.

I'm planning to rewrite with UKEAS because it allows for the exam to be written on Mondays including Tuesdays & Wednesdays, whereas Bellaz is only available on Tuesdays & Wednesdays.

Please if you have written with UKEAS, how was d experience like?

Creamychic:
Was it a gtb card? And which of the centres did you take the test at?

Thanks.

No, Polaris bank card. Bellaz at Surulere.

Has anyone written PTE with UKEAS at Opebi before? How was the experience like?

So my occupation (149212) has been moved to low availability in SA last weekend while I'm still here waiting for Vetassess outcome. I pray it comes out this week.

I need help with getting the required documents for the application. Please pm me if you have applied for any state nomination, I need clarification and compare some of the requirements.

I want to be able to apply as soon as my assessment result comes out.

Na beg I dey beg.

bellong:
In addition, to submit assessment as an internal auditor with VETASSES, be very thorough with your job descriptions.

Match your descriptions action for action with the ANZSCO descriptions and also ensure you read VETASSES' instructions on their website.

For that occupation, you need at least 80 points due to the competition in the number of applicants.

Goodluck.

Hi bro, to understand better, does the 80 points only apply to 189 visa or does it also apply if one goes for State nomination (190&489)?

Concate:
Good day All,

I'm new here and I appreciate the explicit information being provided by the gurus. I have been reading from Part 1 of this thread but yet to find answers to my questions.

I intend to apply for PR as principal applicant and obtain the available 5 point for my hubby. However, I'm an internal auditor with ANZSCO Code 221214 and my hubby is a Fund Manager with ANZSCO Code 222312, can we possibly get a full skill assessment from VETASSES and submit EOI with me as the principal applicant while still claiming the 5 point from my hubby? I'm asking because we do not have the same ANZSCO Code and I don't know how this works.

I will appreciate your kind and prompt response.

Attn:bellong, Alphadoor, Jayooh, highway007

Hi, you don't have to have the same Anzsco code.
The requirements to claim 5 points from your hubby are:
AGE is under 45
Has competent English
Positive skill assessment
Has a skilled occupation on the same skilled occupation list as you.

All d 4 requirements must be met to claim the 5 points.

Changes to DOHA online services and visiting DOHA

Dear registered migration agent

Re: Changes to our online services

Following on from the email sent to you on 6 September 2018, in relation to changes to our phone services, the following is information about the Department’s changes to its online services.

The Department of Home Affairs is progressively transforming its online channels to allow you to self-serve for the majority of information and services.

This is in line with the whole-of-government Digital Transformation Agenda, which ensures all government services are delivered in a simple, clear and easy to use manner that is designed around your needs.

New Home Affairs’ website

The Department is redesigning its website to make information simple and easy to find.

We have listened to your feedback about our website—and are now trialling a test version of our website. You can access this test site at https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au. Please let us know what you think by providing feedback using the in-page feedback link.

Following user testing and extensive client research, the new website is expected to go live in November 2018.

Changes to our client service offices

As we continue to invest in our digital service channels, more people are choosing our online channels first when seeking our services – and the number of people visiting our offices across the country has reduced substantially in the past three years.

From late-2018, our Home Affairs’ offices will only provide services to people who have a letter from the Department inviting them to attend an appointment in-person. Visa or citizenship enquiries can be resolved more quickly online due to the new website. The vast majority of visa applications will be lodged online—or by post. However, we understand there may be complex issues that need attention in-person, and by seeing people by appointment, we can provide a better level of service.

If there’s a complex issue, or the Department needs to see someone for biometrics collection or citizenship tests for example – a departmental officer will book them an appointment to either come into the office or discuss by telephone.

Our Australian offices will continue to provide the following services:

• citizenship tests by appointment

• biometrics collection

• interviews for certain visa subclasses

• status resolution.
