  1. For some occupations sufficient, relevant work experience can be counted to compensate for academic/trade qualifications in a pre migration skills assessment and for others it can not.
  2. A mention of teacher practicum, perhaps not disclosing all particulars, usually appears on an academic transcript.
  3. The opinions of assessing authorities about work experience are only advisory. Immigration delegates are not bound by them. From what you have posted, you will probably be OK. May I suggest that you consult one of the registered migration agents who posts on this forum for advice about strategy?

  5. I concur with the advice in the previous posts. Providing false information about police matters is (usually, often, always) regarded as more serious than the police matters involved. I have suceeded in cases where visa applicants with relatively minor, historical matters visited Australia several times, without declaring criminal convictions, having been incorrectly advised by their local police that convictions that had been 'stood down' , or had otherwise expired, did not have to be declared to Australian immigration. It was only when they applied for PR, using the services of a RMA, that they were correctly advised that for AU immigration, police matters NEVER expire. It is good practice to declare EVERYTHING, such as police cautions and so on, even if they do not show on a PCC. Immigration can kick you to death for your past and present general conduct, or your ASSOCIATIONS, or those of your family. One client had lodged a DIY PR application and consulted me, only after receiving a - considering refusing... letter. It probably helped in my cases that there were Australian-citizen children involved, excellent character references, and it was a long time since the relatively minor offences occurred. Best of luck. You are going to need it!
  6. It is better to ask, than to have THE department throw you under the bus. Look up - assumed knowlege error.
  7. It is possible to seek relevant medical and other reports so applicants can make an informed decision about how (or whether) to apply for a visa.
  8. A 190 does not expire, what expires after 5 years is the travel right (the right to enter Australia). Read your visa grant letter. If you apply for a RRV and you have not resided in Australia for at least 2 years in the previous 5 years, the RRV application will not be straightforward.
  9. I sent the following email, to which I have not received a reply. Dear xxx (ID deleted) Thank you for contacting us. The medical criteria are one of the most complex areas of Australian migration law. Over the years we have developed a set of guidelines and recommendations that have so far been 100% successful where medical issues have arisen. Our professional fee for sending you the relevant information files and strategies to maximise your prospects of success would be $198. We have attached a file that sets out payment options should you decide to retain our services. Please acknowledge receipt of this email. Best regards Westly ***************************************************************** I have been contacted by many DIY applicants who have invested up to $100k, sometimes more, digging their own graves in one way or another. About 1 in 10 are willing to pay my consultation fee.
  10. Please ignore my misplaced modifier.
  11. Some states require proof of funds, some take your word for it.
  12. You might contact states and territories to ascertain which (if any) are willing to nominate applicants in your profession, and under what conditions.
  13. If you want professional advice about how to proceed, please go to my website pinoyau.com and use the 'contact us' form.
  14. You do not need recent experience for an AITSL skills assessment, but you might well need it to rake up enough points for a visa. May I suggest that you consult one of the registered migration agents who posts on this forum for a case assessment?

    Family visa

    Lawyers cannot have OMARA registration, but they can give migration advice, even if the know nothing about it.
  16. Meeting the relationship criteria and satisfying a delegate that you do are different things.
  17. May I suggest that you consult one of the registered migration agents who posts on this forum for a case assessment?
  18. http://www.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/cases/cth/FCCA/2021/686.html?context=1;query=[2021] FCCA 686;mask_path= Thapa has been appealed and it is still not a good idea, even if it had not been.
  19. You might qualify for a work visa, good for up to 4 years, and renewable. If you go to my website pinoyau.com and use the 'contact us' form I shall have a look at your case.
  20. can I submit an EOI 2 weeks before applying for the skills assessment Not a good idea.
  21. If you download and read schedule 6D and you are still unclear, consult a RMA.
  22. May I suggest that you consult a RMA for advice about your options?
