I am processing for Skill assessment under engineering Australia. I have submitted Self Declaration from one of my co-worker while submitting the document. I got the below message from assessor " Please note that affidavits are not accepted in lieu of 5 point duty statement from the company. You are therefore advised to provide the 5 points duty statement from the company" So now Question is..... 1. As per my company policy, I will only get the reference letter after leaving the company as they are liable to provide only for EX-employee. HR person is ready to give me on email why they cant give the letter. Also, they have given my letter which includes my tenure and designation with working hours. So can I go ahead and submit that letter and attach an email from HR? 2. Why did EA not accept my Declaration? Do I need to submit another declaration? Please, someone, help me here. How I would process further.

I have had a really fun weekend preparing my Competency Demonstration Report (CDR) for Engineering Australia and are about to move on with the Summary Statement :biggrin: I have followed the "Migration Skills Assessment booklet" from EA and I'm pretty sure that I'm on the right track. The processing time is however relative long (they are processing applicants from 2nd of April 2012 at the moment), so I want to make sure that my application does not lack of simple mistakes or other things that could hold up the processing time. Is there anyone who has done a cdr / summary statement for Engineering Australia, who would be happy to share their report? If yes - then please send me a PM and I will be happy to provide with a regular email address. And/or if you have any good advice then please share them in this tread, for the benefit of myself and others that might be in the same position. Just for the record - I'm not looking to copy any work, but are only interested to see a successive cdr to ensure that my format and structure is on the right track.

Hi All, Need you suggestion. I am an Electronics and Communications Engineer working as test analyst (in IT). I want to apply for assessment to Engineers Australia as Electronics Engineer so I will be eligible to apply under 189. If I apply as Software tester I will be eligible only for 190 (only Victoria ss). My job responsibilities are that of tester but my qualification is Electronics engineer. My designation is "SOFTWARE ENGINEER' in my first company and "SYSTEMS ENGINEER" in current company. Is it possible to get a positive assessment as electronics engineer?

Hello everyone My wife is an "Electrical Engineer" who is going to apply for NSW sponsorship she is thinking to claim points on the following criteria Age: 30 Education: 15 (Oversees Masters degree) English:10 (IELTS 7) NSW Sponsorship: 5 -------------------------------------- Total 60 now i have 2 questions 1. she doesn't have any work experience. So is it possible for her to apply for migration now?? (she met 60 points). Or she needs to have minimum 12 months work experience to apply? 2. She finished her "Bachelors in Engineering" from outside australia. Can she get points for that or not? In the immi.gov.au, they mentioned that australian uni or "recognised standard" to claim 15 points. your answer is highly appreciated. Thanks Ash

Hi guys, hope all is well and you're having a good new years. I was hoping to get some advice from any of you that have been in a similar situation: I've just returned to Australia (Australian/British citizen) after having finished my master's in civil engineering in the UK, I received a 2:1 overall (~64%) and 69% in my final year project. My problem is that over here there's plenty of different grading schemes so how do people put down there result on their CV and how would I go about determining my equivalent grade? I know Australian Education International can provide assessment but I don't really have the $295 and 3 months time to wait if it's not necessary (the majority of graduate programs start opening in February-March). Also, I was hoping to get membership with Engineers Australia but unfortunately I was unable to pursue this before I left the UK due to my academic tutor having health problems. Is this likely to be something that employers look for? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. meezy
