wheresdbeef Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Hi All Is it possilbe to pass a carpenter vetassess on experience alone? A little background: My brother is 41 and has worked as a carpentry for 20 years, though he has no formal qualification, he did complete a 4 year apprenticeship but struggles with ADHD and was unable to pass the final written exams.

Richard Gregan Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Sure he can. Vetassess and ACTS can assess carpenters and both are experience based. He'll need to investigate how many points he can generate for a skilled visa more generally as well of course. There's no point in passing a skills application, if it turns out you don't have enough points to apply for a visa in the first place. Due to his age, he'll be looking at taking an English language test as well to generate extra points. So I would suggest doing your own research on this, or contacting a registered agent for a no obligation assessment of his options.

jagzz Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Yes he can do the skill assessment basis the rich experience he have but that should be supported by experience letters only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheresdbeef Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Thank you for the responses. He has decided to pursue a 489 visa and will start the Vetassess process early next month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
