Jupiter19 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Thanks I think my knowledge of English, and of the test itself will be enough to get mark 8, but I have enough points even with mark 6. My husband, on the other hand really needs to pass with 5.5, he needs all the luck of this world . I am :skeptical: skeptical and worried about TRA outcome :arghh:.

nancy and paul Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 I don't believe it getting all my stuff ready to send for my review and now I've lost the letter I'm meant to send back... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jupiter19 Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Have you found it ? Fingers crossed for you. Got our Ielts results, MARK 8 :wink:, and husband 5, that`s fine, more then 4.5, Functional English. Now, all we have to do is to get the TRA positive outcome and to send EOI. Does anyone know, is a dependent IELTS result valid for 12 months from visa application day, or from visa approval day ? Just thinking about how many times he will have to take the test.

Jupiter19 Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I have seen it, but for secondary applicant they were valid for 12 months. I wasn`t able to find a new link on diac site about the validity period for secondary applicants, only an old one that stated 12 months validity from application day.

The Adamsons Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Hi, Just a quick question for all you TRA experts, we applied last year and got an unsuccessfull outcome. We're preparing a second attempt, we got double copies of our certified document last march and just wondering if they'll still be ok or if we will need more recent one's, my thinking is if they're certified it doesn't matter about the date but any info will be appreciated, thanks.

If they are certified, then they should be OK. Ours were certified, but not dated, so how would they know when they were done, last year or last week. Good Luck with your re-assessment.

Jupiter19 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Thanks Nancy. Did you get any news at all ? Do you know what is the problem with your application , and what more are they looking for ? When do you expect to get the final outcome ?

nancy and paul Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 Hi Jupiter their looking for proof of pay, got accounts and letter from the inland revenue at the solicitors just now to get certified so hopefully get it sent off at the weekend. When I emailed them they said that should be suitable so hopefully this time. You shouldn't have long now, how many days are you at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jupiter19 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Nancy, what proof did you send them to start with ? I am asking, so that I know what to expect :shocked: I have sent signed statement from my employer ( I have only one employer ), then a statement from the bookkeeper, working contracts with my employer , and yearly tax forms. I didn`t want to send them pay slips, because that would be too expensive to translate and to certify and to send. That would be 120 pay slips, too much paperwork, and a lot of money for certification and translation. So I decided to take a risk, and to send yearly salary tax form, with the stamp of the shop and the taxation office. We don`t have here the inland revenue, it`s a different system. In my opinion, payslips are not as valid as taxation forms, because they are without stamp, just an ordinary piece of paper. And I am now worried as hell :chatterbox: Don`t know how much longer do I need to wait, they received my application on 9th of January, i guess maybe 3 weeks more till the outcome, which i hope to be positive. :cute: Another thing which really bothers me is that TRA is becoming a money spinner...I am positive that in most cases they have enough evidence, but they are asking for additional one.

nancy and paul Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Hi Jupiter I sent a letter from my accountant and inland revenue stating I have been self employed for 15 years which I thought would be enough. I'm now going to send accounts and yearly statements from the inland revenue so hopefully that's enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candygirl Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Hi Jupiter I sent a letter from my accountant and inland revenue stating I have been self employed for 15 years which I thought would be enough. I'm now going to send accounts and yearly statements from the inland revenue so hopefully that's enough. We sent all our tax returns (originals and translations) and a Stat Dec for the years that we could not produce payslips etc when employed so I think once they have this, you will be OK.

Jupiter19 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I`ve been thinking...why is TRA allowing us to register to the portal, under the Job Ready program/Skilled Worker Program, and to track our assessment outcome, when it is written above This tracking portal is not available for the Migration Skills Assessment program. How come that they don`t know that we are all tracking our applications through invalid programs ? They have our numbers, names, date of birth, they know that we are actually under the Skill Migration Assessment program. What`s the catch ?

floorman Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I agree Jupiter!! Our migration officer told us not to keep looking that it wasnt valid any more which worried me as it shows personal details..but lo and behold our outcome on there said succesful and two weeks later our officer told us we were right and it was succesful...

mdmx33 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Tra are utter shites! I'm waiting on them again now.... Took them 4 months for my skills assessment, now I need a points advice assessment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candygirl Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Tra are utter shites! I'm waiting on them again now.... Took them 4 months for my skills assessment, now I need a points advice assessment. Have DIAC asked for a points advice letter? TRA do not do this automatically unless you apply at the same time as the skills assessment. Not everyone is asked to do this. It is at the CO's discretion. Good Luck and hope you don't have a long wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
