Hi, Seems this wasn't given much attention here... Our situation is that Vetasses have assessed my wife as having 8.9 years experience which is great but they have not subtracted anything for the 18 months of maternity leave in the last 10 years. Our concern is that a DIBP official will deduct 18 months from the 8.9 years which drops her below the 8 years we need. Is it worth the risk? Will the DIBP take the 8.9 years or will they subtract the maternity leave? We are wanting to challenge Vetassess on the Deemed Skilled Date point, they have stated her Deemed Skilled Date as being within the last 10 years and have not considered the 4 years of relevant (post qualification) experience obtained before that. Has anyone had any success in challenging Vetassess on this? -C

Hello, Not a response but seems related. Is there any way of searching for migration agents who specialise in certain fields/industries. My wife works in the food manufacturing industry and her job description appears on CSOL, so if possible, would be good to speak to someone who has had experience in this field. Thanks
