So your name, role, working hours and setup (FT, PT, contractual), list of duties, start date (and end date, if past employment), monthly or annual salary, place of employment, company name, mga ganun. > > > > > > For my CV, I just made sure to match the duties sa statement of service. But I didn't do anything special besides that (oh but I did provide a brief overview of my course, my thesis, and my OJT). I think the most important thing is consistency, so make sure job titles, dates, company names, and the like match across your documents. > > > > Maraming salamat sa reply, everything you mentioned is very clear to me. I guess my actual question would be 'how much detail do they need for the duties'? Yung the way it is stated ba sa ANZSCO, something to that effect? Or does my organization need to be very specific? Or can I addendum that to my CV na lang din? > > > > Thank you very much ha, I have been working on my VETASSESS docs and it is taking me so long since napaparanoid ako. I know you can understand. > > > > Thank you. > > Pwedeng high level description of your roles and responsibilities. Sakin around 9 bullet points nilagay ko and I made sure the descriptions tried to match the occupation that I was being assessed for. Maraming salamat sa iyong reply and for clarifying on the level of description, makes perfect sense since this is a "management" role than a specialist one. Maraming salamat ulit. Wish me luck please!

Would you have the source/link for this? The phrasing to me seems like it applies to onshore applicants who, for some reason, hold a tourist visa? I've seen one or two cases of people having lived in Australia for years and then holding a tourist visa (not sure why, maybe to extend their stay), or using it as an unofficial "bridging" visa, or as a means to another visa, if that makes sense. The tourist visa typically restricts any work-related activities, as its main purpose is for leisure. So afaik, wala dapat problema. But hope someone can shed some more light on this if I'm wrong!

Hello. Magtatanong lang po sana ako sa mga nagrant ng visa 482 (medium term) na engineers, requirement po ba sa application ang positive skills assessment from Engineers Australia? Wala po kasing nakasaad dun sa nabasa ko sa website ni australia immi, parang puro skilled trades lang po ang may requirement na magpa-assess. Thank you po. Sana may makasagot. :)

> @summerlovin said: > pashare naman po ng timeline ng approval ng subsequent entrant na applic ninyo. Kasal na po kami and ang husband ko is in Australia holding 457, planning to apply subsequent entrant pra sa akin po. > Hello! Just granted ang de facto dependent ko yesterday. 482 visa :) lodged it week before christmas, medical by 2nd week january, then granted visa 1st february. :)

> @athelene said: > If you have successfully completed your bachelor's degree in the PH, then don't worry about the honoral dismissal stuff. Magkaiba ang requirements ng PH and AU. > > When applying to an Australian uni for postgrad studies you only need to submit scanned color original diploma and transcript of record (not CTC, not monochrome photocopy). When you travel to Australia to start your studies, bring the original copies with you in case kailangan nila i-sight or i-verify in person yung documents mo. Hi po @athelene, I see.. Thank you po for sharing. This is quite helpful. :) I just need to submit scanned colored copies of my original diploma and TOR and make sure to bring them with me to AUS when I start my studies there. All the best po!

Nung nagrebook ako last month, may avail 1-2 dates per month Feb onwards, puro 5pm slots. Mukang fully booked na lahat til May. > > > > Thanks po sa info! May case kaya na biglaan magkakaron ulit ng slots like for example, this month magkaron ulit ng slots? > > This im not sure. Pwede mo icheck siguro daily for a week if nangyayari to kung d k pa nakasched. But best is to schedule your exam the earliest date available sa pearson site. I just checked and June na ang next available date now. Update lang po dito... seems nag-oopen up sila ng slots pero paisa-isang araw lang. nakapagbooked ako, for this month. yey! Thanks sa info ulit. cheers!

MARA registration number and referring to Mara website to check background is the way to go. Another tip is the first two digits of the registration number tells you the year when they registered first. The way far back the year is it means the more experienced they are. Example, my registration number is 1171933….this means I first registered with the MARA, after getting qualified via post grad in Australian immigration and law plus passing an exam back in 2011. MARA number should be disclosed on their email/marketing ads, etc, must be readily seen by clients and prospective clients.
