The agent, the qualification assessment,my carreer...


After to decide the destination and the migration process, we had a big dilemma: Who could be our migration agent? It´s a good question. As well, we want to start with VEA, but then we noticed the price: too expensive... I wrote some people and i discovered a forum and it could help me to find some good answers and after read a lot, contact some agents, we decided to sign the contract with Ospel.

As well, you I would like to tell that I am an agricultural engineer, however my agent told me that is a bit difficult because this carreer is only in SOL list. He gave us some options for my qualification assessment: first I had to evaluate and comparate with the ASCO list, then I should tell my agent and we decided the best option. Finally we decided Agricultural scientist (this decision was make because my work experience is more associate with this skill)

Shortly, I informed my agent and we started my qualification assessment application with Vetassess.

The documents that we need for the assessment are:
• Application form (completed and signed by the applicant) • Applicant Declaration page for online applications (signed by the applicant) • A certified copy of your birth certificate or relevant pages from your passport showing your date of birth • Certified evidence of change of name, e.g. marriage certificate (if applicable) • Two recent passport sized photograph certified as a true likeness of yourself by a person authorised to certify documents • Assessment fee (see below for payment details) • Supporting evidence for your GST exemption claim (if applicable) • Identification of Certifier (see below for details) • Certified English translation of the above documents, compiled by a registered translation service, if originally issued in a language other than English • A certified copy of the official award certificate for your qualification(s) in the original language and in English. If an award certificate cannot be obtained we require a letter of completion from the registrar's department of the awarding institution. This letter should clearly state the qualification name, program duration and details (eg: mode of study) and successful completion of qualification. • A certified copy of the official academic transcript/record listing the subjects studied and results obtained, in the original language and in English. If a transcript cannot be obtained we require a letter from the registrar's department of the awarding institution. This letter should clearly state the qualification name, program duration and details (eg mode of study and subjects undertaken), successful completion of qualification and reasons why the transcript is not available.

So, today my agent had sent me an email informed me that the application online is almost done!!!

Only I have to translate the documents (you can see it above) and then I must send it with the declaration that my agent sent us!!!

For now, i have to go, but see you next!!! :)

The begining...!!!



...When I was young, I wanted to move to another place, I wanted to go to many countries, as my husband says: "You are a citizen of this world..." Then , when I finished the High School, I wanted to go to England and study english, but I couldn´t, then I started the university here int th UCv in Venezuela, I put in a siutcase all my dreams and feelings about this.

Besides, I met few years ago, some good guy from Poland and I still have met some polish people, tehy are awesome and good people; from that moment I said; I go to Poland!!! My mother told me: Are you crazy?? Why Poland?? I was learning polish and german at the same tome online. I really love and admire that countries as well.

Always I have thought to go somewhere; and my mother told me once: Why not Canada, USA or Australia??? I told her: Mom, I do not like USA, people are crazy and besides I have got american tourist visa, immigrant poeple are not accepted by them; in Canada I must learn french and is too cold, also it isn´t one of my favorite countries. Finally, Australia.. I didn´t think about it!!

Then, last year in August, I went in Ecuador and Colombia and I said: I want to stay here!! I like it !!! And the same story: Mom, I go to Ecuador or Colombia!!! I want to do a postgraduate!! She told me: Go ahead!!!

Other option: Go to USA. I have the american visa and you can go as a tourist and coming back again, but I couldn´t, I have a cousin there but he told us is very difficult stay there as a tourist... We told the same thing to one of my mother´s friend... Nothing happen... I settle down... My mom insisted about Australia and I did the online test, I could get a temporary visa, however, I didn´t pay attention!! After that, I put my dreams again in a suitcase.


In 11th March, I did again the online test to Au, the same results: Temporary visa!

After that, my husband and I were looking for a house in Caracas, Colonia Tovar, Maracay, Valencia... The prices: Too expensiveeee!!!!! We couldn´t pay never those houses... Impossible!! One day i told him: I think that we should go to another country, don´t you think? He support me 100 %... And we were searching about this and... Australia appears again on my way!!!! "This is a sign" I thought at that moment.... We did the test together... Finally, I am the 1st applicant...
23th July we made the interwiew with VEA, with a lot of possibilities to get the visa. However, we are thinking about the agent for this process...
So, why we want to go to??? Because my country hasn´t a good situation nowaday, a lot of poverty, insecurity, economical stability, my family, my kids, a good job, a good quality of life... I want to be safe with my husband and planning a beautiful family.
