Hey guys, I do apologise if I'm asking for information that has appeared in previous threads, I did have a look about but I couldnt find anything similar! so here goes. I'm about to log my EOI but I have some questions I need help with. I work as an Environmental Health officer currently and have 2.7 years under my belt in this with particular work in Food safety, I also have 9 months working as a implementation officer in a waste service department, this role meant that I would asses the areas waste service, suggest and then implement changes against statutory requirements. Now I checked all this with VETASSESS using their advisory service but they have not really given a concrete answer either way, could anyone give me an indication if it could be classed as related occupation? or is that a decision for the DIBP? Also for the EOI do I need to provided a full skilled occupation assessment for my nominated occupation when submitting or can I obtain this when invited to apply for the 189 visa? Any help or information would be greatly appreciated and thank you for taking the time to read my post! Kind regards Lucas

Cheers guys I wasn't sure as the ielts site says some professional bodies want academic but there appears to be very little guidence in the VETASSESS site or the SOL ...apparently it's next to the occupation but the list on the site just give a code?? Well I will just have to go for General test and hope it's right! As you said it will be removed soon and I need to get a wiggle on.

Hey people, So I looked around on the forum but couldn't really find an answer, I looking to apply for a 189 skilled independent visa, but Ideally I need to sit a IELTS exam to bump my points up (being 5 short) I currently work as an EHO and need to know if it is the General Training or the academic test I need to sit to meet the VETASSESS requirements? (If these effect it in anyway). Any help offered would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Lucas
