Ashfaqur Rahman Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VERYSTORMY Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Without experience she may not be able to pass the skills assessment. You should check what is required for the skills assessment. Not all degrees or universities are regarded as eligible standard and you need to research if it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biddy17 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Also check the criteria for NSW State sponsorship. If it anything like WA then you NEED at least one year Aussie work exp or 3 years over seas work exp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alnaibii Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 NSW doesn't ask for work experience, but Engineers Australia might. You need to go for skills assessment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
