stephenhall444 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Hello there I am fairly new to the site and I am hoping for some advice. I am a Chartered Management Accountant and lucky enough to be on the SOL. Having done my research and taken the various points tests I can see that at the moment I have enough points for the 175 visa. I have read various articles about the points test changing on 1st July 2011, again I pass the necessary points target. Is there still a SOL list which is a pre-requisit to the points test as there seems little mention of this in the articles on immi.gov.uk? If I did choose to enter my application now how quickly does it take to have my points assessed and to get an answer to move onto the next stage? Any help would be much appreciated! Cheers!

Hiya My hubby is CIMA qualified and he got his skills assessment done through the Insitute for Chartered Accountants in Australia. Here's the link..... About migration assessment We paid for the fast track service. This took 3 weeks. When sending off for his assessment he had to get all his certificates copied and certified by a solicitor. Good luck! Any more Qs just yell! :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherbetdip23 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Meant to say - that you will also need to take an IELTS test - these get booked up quite quickly so I would book up asap! Where are you hoping to head in Australia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Collett Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 CIMA members should consider applying to CPA Australia for their migration assessment, as there is a reciprocal relationship that can also facilitate membership of the Australian professional body on a no charge basis - see the relevant FAQs here: Frequently asked questions about the CIMA and CPA Australia mutual recognition agreement | Pathway to CPA Australia membership for Chartered Institute of Management Accountants membership | International affiliations | Get started | Become a CPA - CP Best regards.
