VETASSESS does not assess Architect...a different body does that...and I heard it is quite difficuly getting a positive assessment as an Architect...but you can try tho

bossladyMo:
Someone here got a positive assessment for Arch draftsperson. They could have felt your duties related more to Architect, and not Arch draftsperson...since you said your duties are more technical.

bossladyMo:
That's a negative assessment...you can't apply for your visa with that.

Didn't you check the duties of your nominated occupation as detailed on abs, to see if it is the same as your work experience?

You can reassess for a different occupation that closelymatches your work experience job description.

What is your nominated occupation?

Pls fellow OZ landers where can one get yellow fever card in Abuja? And also police clearance certificate,does anyone have a contact for it? Thanks.

alukojosh:
from their website 2-4 weeks.. heard someone got hers in 9 days, not sure 9 days is still in play as my waiting time has gotten to 10 days no single emial not even an acknowledgement mail. keeping fingers crossed. So its advisable to apply early

bossladyMo:
Did you tell her the degree was obtained in Nigeria?

Well, I sent the hard copy, and others I know also sent a hard copy.

bossladyMo:
It states clearly on their website that degree certificates to be posted and transcript to be sent by the issuing institution

There is no way around it. My school accepted to include a certified copy of my cert, along with the transcript...all I did was give them a copy, so I didn't have to send seperately.

bossladyMo:
Call them to ask if they have received your transcript.

My application was finalised 3 months after my lodged date...even though mu transcript got there 2months after the lodged date.

Hope you also sent your university certificate? As Nigerian degree certificates are to be posted, not scanned and uploaded online.

You will receive a mail stating your application has been completed. The status will changed from in progress, to completed. Within 48hrs afterwards, the status will change to either positive or negative.

You can download the pdf copy online. However, the hardcopy will me posted to you within 5 working days (if you paid for registered mail)...don't know how long it takes for normal post.

NT is perhaps the most difficult state to get sponsorship from, the reason for this is simply because a lot of people in the past have abuse NT's SS program and deprived NT of the benefits of the skilled migration program. They used NT's SS to get their visa but never set foot on NT soil or went AWOL a few days or months after arriving. Nowadays, you have to 'demonstrate a commitment to living and working in NT or have been living and working in NT for a specified period of time' to be successful with NT SS.

Having your occupation on their list is one thing, but you have to find a way to convince them of your commitment to NT before submitting your SS application. I suggest you even apply to one of the schools in NT and include their offer letter in your application package to them, just to show them that your interest in NT does not end with SS.
Ok. That's noted.

Most people do not want to live in NT because it is the least developed and most remote of all the Australian states. In my short while of being here, I have seen at least FOUR 9ja professionals, three of them citizens relocate to Victoria from NT. I am not saying this to discourage you, rather to draw your attention to one factor that may hold the key to the success or otherwise of your SS application and prepare you for the task ahead.

Best of luck with your application!!

I don't think your MBA alone can give you a positive skill assessment. What is your first degree?



If the assessing body assess the experience to be relevant to the chosen occupation, s/he can tick relevant but will not be awarded point if it is less than 3 years.

The system automatically award you points if you claim 3years upward and will not award point if it is less.

Cypha8:
Hi,
Your B.Tech. is enough to get a positive from VETASSESS. Architect occupation is another ball game entirely... Do you have a masters degree in architecture?

Best wishes with your assessment..

bellong:
Walmark,

Why are you shortchanging yourself. An architectural draftsman is lower than your degree.

Why didn't you apply to be assessed as an architect?

bossladyMo:
The reading section can be quite tricky. If they say NOT MORE THAN 2/3 WORDS, don't use more. If they say use words from the essay, USE WORDS FROM THE ESSAY, don't paraphrase. The True or False or Not Given can also be tricky. Don't imply what is not written in the essay. Don't assume. Answer T/F/NG according to what is written in the essay, what the answer is in the essay, and not what you think or feel the answer shoulf be.

For the writing, you have to practice well. There are some set formats to follow. Also, don't write below the required number of words, and don't over-use words from the question itself. INTRODUCTION - DISCUSSION 1 - DISCUSSION 2 - CONCLUSION...that is the skeleton fod the essay. Also, for the section 1 essay, know the appropriate tone of writing and closing for the formal letter, semi-formal and informal letter.

For the speaking.....well that's based on how good your vocabulary is. Good eye-contact is a plus.

For the listening...be attentive, dazall!

bossladyMo:
