SMC Points Calculation

Hi all,

If I am to claim points for work experience in a 'Comparable labour market', does it have to be post-qualification?

To elaborate, I finished my PhD from a recognised Australian University on 06 February 2016.....and the degree was awarded on 21 September 2016. However, I have been working in my occupation since January 2016.

So....what length of my work experience will be considered for points calculations: (1) from January 2016, or (2) from 22 September 2016?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Kind regards.

Re: SMC Points Calculation

work experience has to be more than 30 hours.
