Vetassess for Actuary
 

Hello group

I have done MSc in Financial Mathematics and am working as a Actuary Analyst for 3 year+.
Vetassess shall deduct one year to assess Financial Mathematics as 'relevant' degree (as they did this when I applied in the past to 'test the water').

I now also have 7 CT examination and 1 ST examination cleared. Could declaring this to Vetassess assist me in reducing the deduction from my work experience (i.e. few months being taken off rather that then full 1 year)? OR can it add on to my work experience?

I was working as a Derivatives Analyst in ForEx with Meryll Lynch for 2 years. Sadly they have not agreed that to be a relevant experience. any advice to suggest a counter attack? If successful, than even with them taking away 1 year experience with degree assessment shall leave me with 3 years+ total experience and make me eligible for the 189 visa.

Advice welcome.

I would speak to a good registered migration agent. However, when you say it will make you eligible for a 189, if it only gets you 60 points or even 65, you are unlikely to ever get an invite
