Hi Ben, I am also on BVB. I am waiting for visa outcome under 190. I got my BVB in 2 working days and is valid for 3 months. If you get your PR in the interim BVB will get replaced.

Hi Wrussell, Thanks for your comment. Please note the score 90 83 87 90 in PTE and we are not represented by anyone at this moment. Yes we have done consultation for our case once.

Hi , Thanks for your detailed response.The Masters is not from the same University. The only reason we are keen to proceed now is that since we have positive assessment from Vetassess with 90 83 87 90in PTE and might as well utilise this time for getting PR . However I feel only option now is to wait for her to complete her Phd and then apply for PR.

Hi Guys, Can anyone advise based on below facts of my case. My Partner has positive skill assessment from Vetassess under 272499 Social Professionals PTE SCORE 90 overall Age 36years Work experience : accepted by Vetasses on scholarship for PHD as regular working experience Education: completed Masters Degree (though she is pusuing Phd from University of Adelaide and will complete in next 3 months) Regional Area 3 years stay Skill in high demand in SA Total Skill select points 75 without adding points for education in Australia or partner skills Now we are confused as we are not getting firm response from Migration agent on our case. He has advised he is getting unconfirmed response from Migration SA whether they will accept her work experience as verified by Vetassess for granting state nomination. I will appreciate if someone can advise us the way forward.

Hi Guys, Please note the following details about my case in which I intend to make my Spouse as primary applicant. Age 25 Pts English Language 10Pts Skilled Employment 5Pts (In Aus) Assessed as Positive by Vetassess ANZSCO 272499 Bachelors Degree 15Pts Partner Skills 5Pts Total Points as of date 65Pts +5 pts if we get state sponsorship ANZSCO 272499 IS UNDER SUPPLEMENTARY SKILLS CATEGORY IN sa Condition under supplementary skills "I have worked in a skilled occupation in South Australia for the last 12 months." Current status my wife - pursuing her Phd from University of Adelaide and is likely to finish by next year 2017. We thought that since we have the required points. We were surprised when during interaction with Migration SA responded(on email) that they will not grant State sponsorship inspite of the fact that VETASSESS has given us positive outcome & has accepted scholarship given to my wife for RESEARCH as paid employment. Migration SA advised us to pursue the case after the completion of her Phd in 2017. Now we are confused. We were planning to apply and obtain PR by the time my wife completes her Phd. Can any of our learned members advise me if # what has been advised to us by Migration SA is that the rule? Can we get it reviewed? # Can we apply for PR as soon as the thesis is submitted or only after the grant of Phd? In the case of completion we will have additional points on top of 65 Pts (5Pts for Phd+ 5Pts Study in regional area+5 Pts completing professional year)

Hi Steve! Yes I did and as mentioned above my SCORE falls under proficient category hence 10 points .

Thanks for the detailed response @supercow.

@scattley Noted your response. Thanks

Hi, Honestly one MARA Agent has confused us and has advised it will be better that I can make my spouse as primary applicant due to age, IELTS and one year completion of academics. Listen though I have my skills assessed but that is being done for gaining extra 5 points as spouse if I become secondary applicant. That is the reason I have mentioned about my skills assessment.

Hi Guys, Please advise the way forward for getting PR visa if my wife is a primary applicant based on below details: 1. My Wife is a student of University of Adelaide and pursuing PHD in INTERNATIONAL POLITICS on scholarship. 2. Her Age is 34 3. She has IELTS academic score of 8 Bands 4. She has completed 1 year in her academics. 5. My skills have been assessed positively by VETASSESS Looking forward to some excellent advice. Thanks Ash

Hi Arnold You are supposed to provide the following documents to Vetassess: 1. Salary Slips 2. Attested Bank statement showing transfer of salary in your account 3. Offer letter from employer 4. Appointment & Confirmation letter 5. Salary Increment/ Appreciation letter issued by your company. 6. Income Tax Return for the years your experience is to be assessed. 7. On company original letter head :Job description with your title/ working hours All the above documents needs to be attested by Notary of Justice of peace. Once done you can upload all the documents on vetassess website after paying the fees. Hope this suffices regards Ash
