TommyC Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Hi everyone, I'm applying 186 visa transition stream at the moment. The nomination has been approved and CO is requesting docs regarding Registration/Licensing. However, becoming a Registered Company Auditor is totally a long process. Firstly, I need to complete the CPA program which I have been doing since 2016 and being a full member for at least 2 years, or being employee in accounting firm for at least 5 years. Secondly, I have to gain 3,000 hours of auditing (only for over 1 million revenue organisations) in 5 consecutive years. My company have only a few big firm audits that on the category, the rest are just small firms. Then, there are many character requirements involved. Thus, it takes years and years to be a registered auditor. In reality, most of graduates and intermediate auditors work under the company's registration or their supervisor's registration. My MA advised that I need a letter from my employer and my supervisor to explain that and also their registrations which we will provide. My question is any other supporting docs that I should provide as well? Also any possibility for a visa approval? Anyone experienced or have any knowledge on this matter, I would very appreciate it if you could give me some advice. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes mate. I'm citizen now. If you do your research on auditing standards regarding audit team. There is no need for you to have a registration as long as you work in audit team under registered lead auditor. I wrote a letter base on my situation and quote the auditing standards that I found it is supportive for my case. Then, I got my lead auditor read and signed off for me for 186 visa application.
