    Default Urgent CO requirement on IPENZ

    I have received a email from CO stating my assessment is done but she needs the clarification on below details...So anyone here please read the below and tell me how to obtain the letter , whether it is through online via email or do I need to send orginal documents there to IPENZ in new zealand.

    CO report



    As part of the documentation provided with your application, we received evidence of your Bachelor of Engineering, majoring in Electronics and Instrumentation, form Biju Patnaik University of Technology in India. Accompanying this, we also received a full International Qualifications Assessment from the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NXQA), which confirmed that your qualification was comparable to a New Zealand Bachelor of Engineering Technology degree at Level 7, specialising in Electronics Engineering. While we have been able to award you 50 points for your qualification, unfortunately this assessment does not show that the exact specifications of the LTSSL have been met as it confirms that you hold a Bachelor of Engineering Technology, rather than a Bachelor of Engineering. This is preventing us from awarding bonus points for both your qualification and work experience. These aspects are covered by immigration instructions SM16.20, SM11.10 and SM13.20, all of which have both been attached to the end of this letter for your reference.



    What you can do now

    In order to address the issue outlined above, you will need to contact the Institute of Professional Engineers New Zealand (IPENZ), to obtain a letter which certifies that the degree you hold and any further learning you have undertaken meets the academic requirements for registration as a Chartered Professional Engineer in New Zealand.

    Please note that we have not made a decision on your application at this stage. We invite you to make comments or provide further information in response to our concerns.


    please suggest what to do

    Hi Varma,

    Can i know what's the Occupational Group and the exact wording of Qualification provided in your engineering certificate and IQA.

    I have checked the LTSS list and see that Bachelor of Engineering Technology is qualified but didn't know what's the occupation you have selected.

    This would even help me as I am a graduate in Bachelor Of Technology and applied under ICT, Electronics and Telecommunications but there is no exact match except this wording which is always confusing
    (Bachelor of Science (Technology) or (Computer Science) or (Electronics) (NZQF Level 7)

    Regards

    Thank you Jand...I have gone through that site but I am unable to find the form. Hence, I would like to request you, where I can find the KA02 assessment form for application and fees. could you please tell me whether the application is through online or do I need to courier them and what are the documents required for that as my CO told me to show the proof of my application on or before 24th of this month...Last, can I get any extension if I am unable to make the things ready before the mentioned time.

    First of all , sorry to hear what's happening , following are answers to your questions.

    1. KA02 Application form is NOT available online, you need to send an email to IPENZ, unfortunately i can't paste it here due to Forum regulations.
    2. Ensure your self which assessment do you require? Weather KA01 or KA02 ?
    3. KA01 assessments are normally for those degrees which are accredited by Washington accord, and doesn't need much documentation, and results are get able in a week time but if you are sure that you need KA02, than it may take time, you would need to fill form for eight knowledge area and would need to write at least two examples from your work/study experience, there is alot for KA02, you may find requirements when you get form IPENZ.
    4. Yes IPENZ require hard copies, so you would need to courier.
    5. By 24th i see it IMPOSSIBLE for KA02 , but may be possible for KA01.
    6.For extension, i know one lady she had same problem as yours, once she contacted IPENZ and inquired time for assessment, than she requested INZ accordingly, and she was granted extension.
    7. From this forum and different experience, for KA02 form , you need at least 2-4 weeks to prepare complete application, and for the assessment IPENZ normally says it may take 7-9 weeks, but i heard from different people that it takes about one week to three weeks maximum after payment deduction (as per their experience).
    8. Now it's you who need to decide how much time do you need, but better to send email to IPENZ, (you can also see IPENZ contact details in your IQA result card)so you can start preparing something and get some evidences to show case officer.
    9. The Fees for KA01 is $ 220.50 and for KA02 is $1351.25

    Above all, go through all my posts, where i commented about IPENZ, and also other forum post.

    All these comments are based on experience , and not an advise. Your case may be different.

    I hope this helps you.

    Thanks

    I hope you could get a response from Varma. However, just to remind you, you are replying to an old post which posted on August 2015. If you check Varma's profile s/he did not login for 2 months already.
