mext60 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Dear All, Just to share with all of you that my skills assessment from VETASSESS for professional occupation submitted on 27th October 2011 has been successful today i.e. on 7th March 2012. I will publish a detailed thread on it, as while lodging my application Sept/Oct last year I was unable to find a case typical of the scenario I had. So for guidance of any future candidates I will publish details. My nominated occupation was "Occupational Health & Safety Adviser" and my basic qualification is BSc in Mechanical Engineering.

82rhoads Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Hi guys I was just wondering if anyone knew, do VETASSESS email you to confirm they've received your application? Or is it just a case of wait, wait, wait for the final result? Also, I heard it takes around 12 weeks to get the result. Is this true in your experience? Really hoping to get to Adelaide, SA :spinny: I submitted my VETASSESS assessment 2 weeks ago and I am giddy with excitement and nerves.:jiggy: Hi,i sent my vetassess off 2 weeks ago and received 2 letters,one being a tax invoice and another yesterday to say that all my documents had been received and that my application could be started Today i received an e-mail from them to say that i had been given a level 1 and was able to proceed to the practical test. All this has happened a lot quicker than i thought but when i phoned vetassess to ask them of the time scale of things they said around 2 weeks...i thought that was a figure plucked out of the air to be honest! I'm a joiner so maybe trades get processed more quickly,i have heard this, also, i submitted an urgency request form as i'm 40 in july and would lose points. I have found them pretty good communication wise with e-mails,phoning through skype took a few attempts at getting through though. Hope that helps, Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycplanner Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I (or rather my agent) lodged my Vetassess application a couple weeks ago (for a professional occupation). Fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed. I am still waiting for some kind of a response from vetassess... Did you apply for the points also to Vetassess or only assessment of skills and qualifications.

smithinoz Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I have also recently submitted my vetassess. Just a waiting game now. Not expecting to beat the 1 July deadline but would be a bonus if we did. Good luck to all! Would be nice to keep updated via this thread.

priscillagonsalves Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 we are still waiting it has been 4 months for us from the date of submission of application and documents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mext60 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 have u recevd ur letter. what abt the points test. we are still waiting for a response. Yes I have received my letter and points test advice. Everything is in order except for my graduation year. My degree certificate says that the degree has been completed in Feb 2004, however that certificate was issued in 2005 so the issue date is 2005, so VETASSESS has put the degree completion date as 2005. Except for that everything is in order and as per my wish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

priscillagonsalves Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 How many points did u get from Vetassess for your qualification and experience Dear Skyline, From the time desicion is made by VETASSESS it took 10 calendar days to receive my letter by post.

mext60 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 How many points did u get from Vetassess for your qualification and experience They did not say exactly how many points I am eligible for. They just said in the letter that my qualifications are equivalent to Australian Bachelor Degree and in a highly relevant field of study and that my two positions from 2005 to 2008 and 2009 to 2011 are closely related to the nominated occupation.
