Hi@ma

Hi all, i want to appy for ict customer support officer skills assessment from TRA. My education qualification is bachelors in electrical technology. Has anyone got positive assessment from tra with similar qualification which is not so relevant to the occupation? Pls share ur experiences

Hi guys, sorry, lil bit off thd topic..can anyone explain what does this mean? Occupation is listed as special conditions apply and also additional requirements mentioned. Does iut nean we hv to take the intersection of these 2 categories?i.e nt available for highpoints,nt available for chain migration,only available for SA graduates? Additional RequirementsSkills Assessment Authority261313Software EngineerProficient English (or Proficient Plus overall); Offshore applicants Provisional 489 visa only; Not available for high points nomination 6/7/18; Not available for chain migration nomination 6/7/18

Earlier when they wanted to make changes to 457 work visa , they totally abolished it and brought a new visa in its place with those new changes.existing 457 holders were not affected by those changes. Hopefully if 5 yr rule is mandated for provisional visas in future, they might abolish the existing 489 and bring anotherr xxxx visa which do not impact existing visa holders. But there is news that this change cud bee introduced in 2019-2020

As long as the job title in the ACS assesment and the title in the skilled occupation list match you will be fine. Ya they match. But i am seeing discrepancy about the positions held. I got positive skills asssssment for software engineer. But the position is written as senior test analyst where as my payslips/service letters,etc have test analyst as position. Wat do u suggest? Do i need to re do skills assessment? Is it mandatory to submit same proofs to SA that we subkitted during ACS? I mean same stat decs,etc

Hello all, i am about to submit SA 489 application. I am realising tht positions in acs letter,service letter/payslips/tax statements are different. Wat shud i do now?

Very informative.my eoi and acs results will expire in another 1 yr. Can acs result expire after weget invite?

Hello all, i am in a typical situation. In my prev company, i worked under 4 different team leads. Oneof them has privided me a stat dec with my roles and responsibilities. But he joined one year after my joining date. Can i take stat dec from him? Else i also have a stat dec from my colleage(not junior). Which one can i submit to immigration? This is the only one holding meup. Can someone experienced advise on the same pls.

Ok....they must be going thru the roles and responsibilities listed

Hi @JetBlast, how about your salary proofs and jobtitle mentioned in employer certs? They would have been different from the occupation you are claiming points from?still no ptoblem?

I have worked as software tester and successfully got ACS for software engineer (261313)because one of the employer certificate lists my roles and responsibilities as a software engineer and for another company, i submitted a stat dec with sw engineer roles and responsibilitiest.now i am submitting the same proofs for 489 visa also.but the job title printed on payslips and tax forms is not the same as the occupation i am applying for now. I have read inthis thread that someone got the invite with a different skill assessment too. Please suggest if i need to produce any other proofs with respect to 489 SA visa too.

Thanks a ton! You cleared all my unasked questions as well.validation trip before12 months validity of those certificates is a new poiht to me as well. Thanks Jon

Hello everyone, can someone tell me ehat is this health check froentloading/submission means?while lodging 489 application in https://apply.migration.sa.gov.au/user/login.php , there is no field tgat prompts for health check or PCC. Did u mean uploading those docsi. Skillselect application even before invite is issued? Iftgereisanyway we can fast track the application withthese two docs, pls let me know

I think it is taking name and email id provided during registration.but during registration it is prompting first name and family names only. The first name provided during registration to SA immigration website is appearing as given name in thd visa form. Whoever got invote recently, did u all face the same scenario while submitting nomination application?

Yes @JetBlast, name and email address fields are disabled in all browsers

Name field is disabled and i cannot enter my full name in Given name field of 489 visa nomination site. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? My first name is shown in Given name field but accordinv to my passport, given name is first name +middlr name.

Sorry , one more question. My employer has not mentioned salary details in their letter. Can i submit bank statement as proof of salary ? Other details like job title, roles and responsibilities are mentioned by the employer.has anyone done this for SA 489 visa application? Pls confirm

Has anyone opened a company on 489 visa?

Whr can we find info about odd jobs? And can we open a company on 489 visa and work for ourselves and claim the 12 months experience?

Was ot asking for police checks during the nomination submission stage itself?

How are the current job prospects for 489 visa holders in SA? How to approch agents to find jobs for provisional visa holders?

I thought bridging visa is as good as PR. Isnt medicare applicable during that time?

I am applying SA state sponsorship today with 75 points...can i expect invite soon? Can someone help me in writing a "reason for. Migrating to SA' . Does it have tobe a fancy one? I am writing in plain english mentioning that SA is excelent in offering career oppurtunities,gud sports culture, climate and best destination for students blahblah

Congrats everyone some positive vibs finally!
