Hi All,
My qualification Bachelor of Engineering in (Electronics and Communication Engineering) which is pre assessed as level 7. This is not mentioned exactly under column 3 and 4 in LTSSL, however there is mention like "Bachelor of Engineering Technology (Computer and Mobile Systems Engineering) or (Electronic Engineering) or (Network and Communication Engineering) (NZQF Level 7)".
Also, I have total of 4 years and 9 months experience in India (non-comparable labour market) and 5 years and 8 months in Singapore till date (comparable labour market) as Software Engineer, Design Lead and Assistant Manager in ICT sector.
Now I’m calming points as below.
Identity: 25
Recognised Qualification + absolute skill shortage: 60
Partner Qualification: 20
My confusion is about how to claim points under recognized work experience section.
- Does my qualification falls under LTSSL under column 3 or 4?
- Under total number of years of recognised work experience how should I claim points? http://glossary.immigration.govt.nz/...experience.htm
- Should I claim Only for the experience gained in Singapore (under comparable labour market) i.e. 4 to 6 years leading to 15 points OR
- Should I claim for the experience gained in Singapore (under comparable labour market)
AND
experience gained in India (under work experience in an area of absolute skills shortage gained in a non-comparable labour market, can claim points for work experience on their Expression of Interest) i.e. 10 years or more leading to 30 points.- If I could claim as per above 1.2 then Under total number of years work experience in an area of absolute skills shortage, should I claim
2 to 6 years gained in Singapore only OR
more than 6 years which is overall experience?
Also for any clarifications regarding the above points, should I call immigration office in New Zealand or Singapore?
Your advice/response is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
