ACS Application with MCSE
Hi,
Hopefully someone can help me out. I am planning on applying for a PR visa later this year by which time I will have passed my MCSE. I have 9 years IT experience and am currently working as 3rd Line Server Support Engineer.
My question is: Should I apply through the normal ACS Skills Assessment route as a Group B applicant or should I go down the RPL route?
Also if I apply as a Group B applicant and get knocked back, and re-applyed under RPL would I need to pay again or just the extra $50?
If someone has gone down a similar route and could offer me advise then that would be very much appreciated.
Many Thanks
Nick.

You may need to do some project reports as you still will need to show ACS you have 6 years *professional* IT experience.

I got through the ACS as group B with MCSE and 7 years experience a year ago. Just make sure your references cover specifics about your duties and the tools you use. I put project reports in mine because I thought "what the hell, it can't hurt".

Thanks for the info. I will go down the Group B route. Hopefully an MCSE will still be good enough for Group B as I have seen some posts that say they maybe stopping this in the near future.
Thanks again
