Filling in the 190 Visa Application form, can anyone help please!

[JMG79]

Hi, Been watching Perth Poms for a while now and found it to be a place for sound advice. I’m currently filling in a 190 Visa Application, and I’m a bit stuck with some of the pages and was wondering if anyone could help, and I’m not using a migration agent as I did not find them very helpful, and I can't afford to.

I have a positive skills assessment level 8 IELTS and WA State sponsorship.

Ok, here we go.

 

1) When I printed my visa application off to check it there was a question which asks "has the applicant previously traveled to Australia or previously applied for a visa" but cant find this question anywhere on the electronic application?

I have traveled there before spent a year there between 99 and 2000.

 

2) On page 12/17 it asks for qualifications, I have entered my degree (as this was assessed by Vet assess), but then it asks for all secondary qualifications so if I list my diploma, A levels and GCSE's do I select the qualification type other as they have cot been assessed against the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF)?

 

3) I’m not claiming any points for Partner qualifications, however again on page 12/17, it asks for details of my partner qualifications. My wife has a Masters. Do I list this qualification as a Masters, or as other as we have not had her qualifications assessed against the AQF?

 

4) Employment History, with this I does not have the exact dates I started and finished employment (except my current employment, which I have been in for the last 8 years). So do the dates need to be exact or can I just use the First date of every month?

D0 I need to account for gaps in employment where I went traveling?

 

5) Birth Certificate document identification numbers, is this the number in the top right hand corner that seems to start 3-4 letters then 6 numbers?

 

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help with this,

Choose yes and give details of your travelling to Australia

2) On page 12/17 it asks for qualifications, I have entered my degree (as this was assessed by Vet assess), but then it asks for all secondary qualifications so if I list my diploma, A levels and GCSE's do I select the qualification type other as they have cot been assessed against the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF)?

Give secondary qualifications too.

 

3) I’m not claiming any points for Partner qualifications, however again on page 12/17, it asks for details of my partner qualifications. My wife has a Masters. Do I list this qualification as a Masters, or as other as we have not had her qualifications assessed against the AQF?

 

Give Partner qualifications though you are not claiming partner points!

4) Employment History, with this I does not have the exact dates I started and finished employment (except my current employment, which I have been in for the last 8 years). So do the dates need to be exact or can I just use the First date of every month?

D0 I need to account for gaps in employment where I went traveling?

You have a complete CV what I believe. Give details and accurate date from there.

- Don't account gap for travelling

 

5) Birth Certificate document identification numbers, is this the number in the top right hand corner that seems to start 3-4 letters then 6 numbers?

No idea as I am from different country.
