Employer not ready to give reference letter
 
I am processing for Skill assessment under engineering Australia. I have submitted Self Declaration from one of my co-worker while submitting the document.
I got the below message from assessor " Please note that affidavits are not accepted in lieu of 5 point duty statement from the company. You are therefore advised to provide the 5 points duty statement from the company"

So now Question is.....
1. As per my company policy, I will only get the reference letter after leaving the company as they are liable to provide only for EX-employee. HR person is ready to give me on email why they cant give the letter.
Also, they have given my letter which includes my tenure and designation with working hours.
So can I go ahead and submit that letter and attach an email from HR?


2. Why did EA not accept my Declaration? Do I need to submit another declaration?


Please, someone, help me here. How I would process further.

What type of application do you have - Engineer? Technologist? Manager? Do you have recognised qualifications or are you doing CDR?

Is the info required for the assessment or additional employment evaluation?

From the MSA:

Applicants who have claimed engineering employment for more than 12 months or have based their career episode upon professional experience must provide a reference letter from the employer (reference letter on official company letterhead, stating your title/position, commencement and termination dates of employment, signed and dated by the author).
Sounds like your HR can give you the reference required. Have you included references from all employers?

But for the skills assessment, it does not need to provide that info if you read the guide - you only need that for the secondary employment assessment and there are alternate options listed to provide evidence for this but I cannot see that they accept stat decs. You can use the same letter for employment, but would need to also provide either the job offer letter with duties listed, or performance reviews.

If you haven't fully read the guide, it is here - https://www.engineersaustralia.org.a...%20updates.pdf
