Hi there Abhijeet,

Welcome to the forum.

You've certainly got enough working years in your field but your job needs to be on the SOL list. If you have a look at the sticky at the top of the page "Thinking of emigrating" you can check if it's on the list and also see if you have enough points etc.

You should be ok with 8 years. When you are looking at the list don't forget that some of the IT occupations are also on the MODL. You should, if oyu can, pick one of the MODL occupations as this will give you more points on the points test. You need at least 12 months of work experience in an MODL in order to be awarded the bonus MODL points.

Thanks Dolly and Veronica for your valuable comments. I've checked the SOL and my Job(Systems Manager) is in it though not in MODL. And i have gone through the points test which adds up to 125 points. Just wanted to know wht is the time frame for the Skills Assessments as i will be applying for RPL coz i have no degree in IT

Hi Abhijeet,
Welcome fellow Indian
My husband too has done MCSE, He has masters in COmputer and close to 5 years experience, We too managed close to 125 points and we are now appearing for the IELTS this month end for those extra points.
Now the answer to your question.

1. ACS
ACS takes not more than a month to 3 months, depending on how many proofs you send along with the forms, they need all kinds of proofs and the more the better, you can add your salary slips, any in-house certificates from your employer like certificate of excellence etc, any and every kind of letter from your employer/company that proves your working with them as a permanent employee etc, this again adds to your being a genuine case, all your degrees / certificates of the courses you have taken so far. Co-employee references with respective visiting cards, employer references, incase you can not manage the employer reference, then add a statutory declaration that you fear loosing your job incase you do ask for it.
All in all I would say, give everything that you have

2.
They do need the masters in Computers or any kind of post graduate study, which is for 4 years, if you do not have one then they deduct the same number of years from your total work experience and the balance should be more than 4. so you do qualify.

Anything else, just ask

Anj

Sure will.
Well, salary slips are not mentioned anywhere but since you are unable to give a reference from the employer, the salary slips only serve as a proof and they support your bank statement. My agent said, while applying for the acs or the visa, remember, More is Good. You are giving your papers for your own benefit, not theirs, so no harm in adding extra papers, it is only paper, incase it is no good then they will not go through them, incase they do, it adds weight to your case.
If you have the salary slips, my suggestion would be to add them, I don't know if you are attaching the reference letters from your current employer, incase you are not, then salary slips work as a proof of employment and support your CV, not in salary terms but only supporting the employer bit.

Although Anj gives some great advice based on her and her husbands experience don't forget to check with an agent if in doubt. Their first consultation is usually free.

Karen
