Re: New point test available NOW on DIAC site
I presumed that Accountant will still in the list by 1/07/2011. Here is my points :
Age - 25 points
English (Band 7) - 10 points
Overseas Work Experience - 8/10 years - 15 points
Bachelor Degree - 15 points
Australian Qualification - 5 points
25+10+15+15+5 = 70 points ?
So Easy, Sure ?

Re: New point test available NOW on DIAC site
Hello friends,
It is a very good point system focusing on experience/ age/ qualification. But the english language points systems seems weird. No points for ielts 6 in each wow. I got 8 overall and 8 bands in each except in writing in which i got 6.5. and i won't be getting any points for ielts as if i am not proficient in English according to new rules. The policy makers should have learn something from canadian immigration program in which the language points are awarded for each different module of ielts. 'In each' criteria is not the way to decide the english proficiency anyway.
