Sarz Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 Oh right. Didn't think of that as an issue, Presumed that you had work ex as you are teaching already. My teaching experience was cut to 5 year by AITSL, and I have been teaching since 2010 so lost points there. Btw, VIT registration came through today. Now registered as provisional teacher with VIC. Hopefully this will help our case. Good luck to you! Keep posting, good to hear fellow teacher's journey through this long process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for deeming dates, the opinions of skills assessing authorities about work experience points are only advisory. Have you taken professional advice about this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you taken professional advice about this? Our agent said we can only apply for points as per our AITSL Assessment or this ma be considered as fraud on our part. Masters completed in 2013 (AITSL recognised work ex from here) but teaching primary and secondary since 2010. May I ask what is your opinion as an agent?

wrussell Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I do not offer opinions about cases I have not fully assessed. If your agent is a registered migration agent you should probably accept the advice. NOTES Only post-qualification work experience is counted. Presumably your first degree did not qualify you. If you completed post-qualification work experience for which the first 4 ANZSCO digits were not the same as those of your nominated occupation, such work experience would not be counted as 'closely related' for points.

Sarz Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 Fair enough! I will direct this to our agent. The Work Ex is in the same field of teaching. I appreciate you guidance, though. Very kind of you! 5 minutes ago, wrussell said: I do not offer opinions about cases I have not fully assessed. If your agent is a registered migration agent you should probably accept the advice.

pamoushe Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 HI guys, does anyone know if I need a skill assessment for a year of experience i(secondary teacher) n NSW? Or can I just provide my payslips? I started working since the beginning of the academic year (28/01/2019). Can I claim my points at the end of the school year (20/12/2019) or Will I have to wait until 28/01/2020 (which will include my summer break)? Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarz Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) Hi Pam, Our agent told us that a Minimum 24 months paid employment work experience is required for NSW and to claim points you will need to have AITSL assess not just your work claim but also your education. Fortunately NSW is only open to Match or Science stream so good for you. Hope this helps. Edited July 30, 2019 by Sarz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a positive skill assessment for my qualification. I need to assess my work experience which will cost 228$. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I contacted the department of home affairs and AITSL. I don't need a skill assessment for my work experience as I'm working in a public school. All I need is my payslips and my contract. For 189, I don't stand a chance with 70 or 75 points. 190 NSW requires 1 year of experience will be completed by January. So I'm hoping I'll be invited by then.

If your work experience is in Australia (full-time not casual) you won't need an assessment. Contract and payslips will do. If you have been working overseas or in Australia but as a casual teacher, then you need a work assessment from AITSL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrussell Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Under certain conditions some states/territories will accept applications for some skilled occupations that they have not currently listed as 'open'. It is a matter of doing the homework. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean0703 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I couldn't find any states for secondary teachers that were overly positive. The NSW condition was that you've already worked in NSW for a year. No use to man nor beast really. When I last looked at Vic it was specifying subjects for secondary and Primary teachers had to be specialist in a language... such as mandarin and Chinese for example. Again, for UK folk that's no use either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic was our only true hope. For NSW secondary teachers is in low category. Unless you want to go out to the remote Bush. QLD is closed. WA & NT are not open for overseas applicants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
