galansky Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Hi - I am new to this forum. We have been wanting to move to Australia for many years and finally decided last year to do something about it. We are applying for a state-sponsored skilled migration visa subclass 190 with New South Wales under the occupation of Systems administrator. My skills assessment was lodged with the ACS on the 24th Jan 2013. We have been told this can take up to 3 months to get a result. I have completed my IELTS in Dec 2012 with an avg of 8.5. We are hoping to be in Australia at the end of the year. Our application is a bit tricky as I haven't worked for the past 4 years. Technically I should be fine with the ACS skills assessment as I still have the required amount of working years but it's a nerve wracking wait!

Tisha Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Hi and welcome!! Hope your assessment will be finalized soon. From what I have read and heard, worst case scenario you are looking at 3 months with ACS but my hubby's only took between 6-8 weeks last year so hopefully it will be the same for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
