Chef Job - WDA ask me 5 years experience

Hi,

I am now in Taiwan and did an application for a Work permit application with my restaurant I work, the reply from immigration is to prove 5 years experience as CHEF,
I have 1 year experience for the proof and already sent to immigration, my diploma 6 years ago but not every job I had a contrat
Before to start all of this I call the WDA and they told me there is no requirement experience as CHEF, it’s been 6 months I’m working hard for this
I sent my traineeship in restaurant (almost 1 year) and my employer will go to the WDA for be the guarantor but I know there is no hope,

Call your old places of work and get their proofs?

I worked overseas, Australia, Japan on Working Holiday Visa, no contrat
In my home country many was in cash and no contrat

Is it immigration or WDA?

They say
A2

  1. Specialists who have been trained professionally or self-taught in the specific field and have more than five years experiences in related skills and have demonstrated outstanding performances.(Note: The ministry has established a consultation procedure for expatriates as professional and skilled workers to be exempted from the five-year work experience requirement. But those acknowledged as startup with innovation capabilities are not subject to the limit on years of work experience.)

It’s the WDA who told me this, I read my employer can apply for exemptions for the years requirements ?

Do they meet the criteria to apply for it?

I will talk about it with my employer, thank you

My employer told me the years experience is resolved, WDA ask for more proof , We sent traineeship and few pictures of me wearing Chef clothes at restaurant before,
But yeah I don’t know…

Is consultation mechanism only for degree diploma ?
