Hello everyone!
I want to submit EOI and I am confused a bit about points which I can claim.
I already get my full assessment results from NZQA as follows
Qualification 1: Bachelor degree
Comperative assessment outcome: A Bachelor of Information Technology degree at Level 7 (360 credits)
Qualification 2: Specialist diploma
Comperative assessment outcome: A postgraduate diploma at level 8 (120 credits)
Qualification 3: Master degree
Comperative assessment outcome: A master's degree at level 9 (120 credits)
On Long-term Skill Shortage List I find following occupations
3rd column - Long Term Skill Shortage List Requirements
- Bachelor of Information Sciences (Computer Science) or (Information Technology) or (Software Engineering)
(NZQF Level 7)
4th column - Bonus point requirements
- Bachelor of Information Sciences (Computer Science) or (Information Technology) or (Software Engineering)
(NZQF Level 7)
There are additional bonus points for
Additional bonus points for work experience in an area of absolute skills shortage = 15 points
Qualification in an area of absolute skill shortage = 10 points
Can I claim these bonus points? (Considering assessment: a Bachelor degree of Information Technology degree at Level 7 (360 credits)). According to this list I presume that I have

And if I claim these points with my Bachelor degree,can I use my master degree points for qualification, there is a 10 point difference between level 7 and level 9? Should I choose Bachelor or Master degree for “Points for qualification”?
For example,
How I see all that...
Relevant work experience
Ten years = 30 points
Additional bonus points for work experience in an area of absolute skills shortage
Six years or more = 15 points
Points for qualification
Recognised level 9 or 10 post-graduate qualification (Masters degree, Doctorate) = 60 points
Bonus points for qualifications
Qualification in an area of absolute skill shortage = 10 points
Partner qualifications
Recognised level 7 qualification and IELTS overall 6.5 = 20 points
Points for age
30 to 39 = 25 points
Total: 160 points (best case scenario)
I am not sure if I understand all this correctly.
I am planing to submit my EOI during next week and I want to avoid to be declined due to my qualification is not matching LTSSL or any other mistakes.
Any advice or suggestion will be highly appreciable.
Thank you in advance
Regards,
Zoran
