Hello po. I am a Medical Laboratory Scientist and currently, I have 70 points. How many months or years will it take for me to be invited after passing the EOI? Estimate lang po if may idea kayo hehe. Applying for visa 189. Thank you po! ❤️
It's a case-to-case basis, so I wouldn't really expect a particular timeframe. The current trend is that people with 95+ points get invited first, with a focus on target sectors (accounting, IT, healthcare). As it is now, Australia has focused on inviting those who are already onshore, so if you're offshore right now, you are bumped down to the bottom of the queue. Also, the allocation for skilled migration (189 is more competitive than 190 state-sponsored) for 2021-2022 has been lowered in favor of family visas, so the likelihood of getting an invitation right away is much lower than pre-pandemic times. But lodge an EOI anyway, and continue on with your work/life as you wait for that invitation.
