Re: Can an NAATI-certified translator translate docs for their own application?

Thanks Jeremy.

Yes, in fact as I was writing my post yesterday I was struck by how this would make quite a good question for the ethics part of the NAATI exam itself, where conflicts of interest...

Can an NAATI-certified translator translate docs for their own application?

I'm currently waiting for the results of my NAATI test. If I've passed, it will then be time to start getting the mountain of documents ready to apply for Australian PR (our ultimate destination is...

Re: NZ - Family category - retired parent

I agree. You seem to fit the criteria in respect of centre of gravity, so it should be well worth applying.

I think some people are getting confused between your situation (the Family Category)...

Re: NAATI Overseas Testing Question

Thanks for the informative post and for recommending London. I am hoping to take the test when I go to the UK to visit my family in the spring, so I will certainly remember the name of Tom Horrigan....

NAATI Overseas Testing Question

I'm hoping to take the NAATI Translator test (Japanese-English) in 2004.

My question is about the procedure for overseas testing. The tests in Australia happen only once a year, in November, but...

Re: Taking the Naati test

I've taken a quick look at the booklet, but will go through it with a fine-toothed comb to try and spot any banana skins. As far as I can tell, as long as I pass the NAATI test my case should be...

Re: Taking the Naati test

Sound advice. I'll be ordering the NAATI application pack forthwith and hope to get the exam done by next summer. Strangely, Japan (where I live) is not on the otherwise extensive list of countries...

Re: Taking the Naati test

Thanks Peter. As ever, a prompt and spot-on reply. I do worry that with the NAATI test probably being regarded as an "easy" route to 65 points (Skilled Occupation + community language) by some...

No, it was in the post I quoted from George Lombard! I should have made that clearer.

Re: Can I work in NZ with an Australian PR?

Re: NZIS policy changes take effect NOW.

Best advice is don't panic!

Your application will be returned, and you can fill in a new one for the new category next month (using the same medical certs etc., I believe). If not many people...

Re: NZIS policy changes take effect NOW.

Yes, another classic NZIS surprise. How many lawsuits will they get this time I wonder? Not many I suppose, as judging from this board and their recent application numbers there don't seem to be many...

Has the new points system been announced yet? In the context of the GS system, one point for a job offer sounds derisory, so presumably the new...
