secure12345 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Hi All, I have 6 years and 11 months of experience as a ICT Business Analyst from various IT organizations and got a +positive assessment from ACS on August 6th 2014. Qualification : Degree B.com., & a MBA(Health management) which are both NOT related to IT. Can i claim points for the above experience or else i found an extract which is mentioned below denotes a different story? -Please clarify If his/her degree is assessed as having an ICT minor which is not closely related to his/her nominated occupation, he/she will require 6 years relevant work experience. Only closely related experience gained after the 6 years can be counted for work experience points. I went through 2 consultant and each differ in their view where one has given me ZERO point and the other has scored 10 points for my experience(I find the conclusion not valid .. i.e. though the applicant requires 6 years work experience if he / she is ICT minor.. but the Australia Immigration will still count the 6 years work experience to score points for work experience) Any help in this would be really appreciated:) Cheers Renato Pereira Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozmaniac Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 According to your skills assessment letter, you would be most unwise to claim points for any work experience before September 2013 so in other words, you should claim no experience points as you have less than the 3 years required for 5 points. If you need more points, do IELTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secure12345 Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Can i take up Pearson Test of English(PTE) which has been approved as of November 2014? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozmaniac Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 To the best of my knowledge, alternative English tests have not yet been implemented. The announcement about their implementation simply said 'from November 2014' with no specific date having yet been announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark 1234 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Can you point out the mistakes which i can send out a clarification to ACS? For a fee. He is a professional agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrussell Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 For a fee. He is a professional agent. I did not ask for a fee. I undertake preliminary assessments for no charge and quote fees if and only if I can offer useful advice or services. Useful advice is sometimes along the lines - I have fully assessed your case and I regret to advise... It is better to throw a consultation fee down the drain, rather than a VAC or two.
