Contacto VETASSESS...

Hola amigo miguelaustro y estimados foristas espero se encuentren muy bien.

Les cuento que he contactado con VETASSESS por mi caso (el cual ya he comentado anteriormente en este foro), sin embargo daré un pequeño resumen de mi situación actual. Me desempeño como Insurance Broker (ANZSCO Code 222113) desde hace 7 años en mi país. Para actuar como tal, no necesité tener un titulo universitario, solo la aprobación de un examen presentado ante un ente gubernamental después de haber realizado un curso corto.

En fin he contactado con VETASSESS para saber las posibilidades reales de tener una validación, les he explicado todo esto y esta ha sido su respuesta:

"Dear Mr Juan Herrera,

Thank you for your enquiry to VETASSESS. Unfortunately I am unable to give you advice as to whether an application you make will be successful, however I can give you information about our assessment criteria that may help your decision.
All VETASSESS occupations have been coded as A, B, C, D, E or F. Occupations are classified by groups according to their requirements.

The nominated occupation you are enquiring about, Insurance Broker (ANZSCO Code 222113), is a Group C occupation.


Group C Occupations require a qualification assessed as comparable to the educational level of at least an Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) Diploma, in a highly relevant field to the nominated occupation. In addition to this, the applicant must have at least one year of employment at an appropriate skill level in a field closely related to the nominated occupation, completed in the five years before the date of application for a Skills Assessment. Two years of such employment is required if the qualification/s has a shortfall in content relevance.

Pre- and post-qualification employment:
·       Pre-qualification employment may also count for occupations in Group C provided that it was completed after the required skill level was achieved:
·       Three years of relevant employment meets the entry level for Group C

Whether pre- or post-qualification, the employment which counts needs to be within the five years preceding an application to VETASSESS and to be at an appropriate skill level for the occupation.

Although ANZSCO states that “at least three years of relevant experience may substitute for the formal qualifications listed above”, this does not apply to our skills assessments. For migration purposes, additional years of employment cannot make up for the lack of a formal qualification at the required level.

I can also refer you to our advisory service which can assist you in this matter in more detail. Please follow the link for the same: http://www1.vetassessadvisory.com.au/SRGO/Online/


This service has been introduced because many of our applicants have complex enquiries about how the skills assessment application and assessment process relates to their particular circumstances and nominated occupations. This service should assist applicants to make informed decisions about their application for a skills assessment and to prepare applications with correct documentation which are assessment ready.

A fee is payable for using the Advisory Service but applicants using the service receive a discount on a subsequent application for a Skills Assessment. Using the Advisory Service should streamline your application process by saving you time and resources. The fee payable for each enquiry session is AUD $130. This is non-refundable. A one-off discount of AUD $50 applies to your first subsequent application to VETASSESS for a skills assessment with a nominated occupation in the general professional category i.e. for a non-trade occupation.

Según puedo entender, la persona que ha dado esta respuesta no está capacitada para asesorarme puntualmente en mi caso o sencillamente me envía a su Advosiry Service para pagar de entrada por la asesoría, aunque si me explica claramente la categoría de mi profesión y las condiciones que se deben cumplir para una aplicación.

Miguel quise venir acá de nuevo para saber tu consejo dada esta respuesta, y quise publicarla en el foro ya que puede ser de interés para alguna otra persona.

Sigo trabajando en mi ingles, y en mi hogar aún tenemos la esperanza de materializar este sueño.

De antemano Miguel te agradezco por tu aporte invaluable en este foro y por lo mucho que me has ayudado a mantenerme motivado en este sueño que a veces es difícil de sobrellevar.

Un fuerte abrazo a todos.
