    Romans 12:12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.

    James 5:7-8 Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

    Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

    @Rave_085 Wala pong effect because changes are not retroactive. Yung maa-affect lang is yung magsa-submit ng EOI or yung hindi pa nase-select from that day na naimplement ang changes.

    @Rave_085 Di naman nila pwedeng i-decline ka for the reason na currently wala na yung occupation sa list especially kung nung time na nag submit ng EOI at na invite ka to apply eh nandoon pa yung occupation. That would be very unreasonable of them and they wouldn’t do that in a million years.

    You were invited at the time given that you have met all the requirements needed to be invited.

    Pwede kang ma-decline on other reasons but not the scenario you mentioned.

    @michel_75 42 na ako … medyo mahirap makakuha ng perma res Lalo na sa edad kasi mababa na points pero kung aabot ng at least 70 ang points mo may laban akin kasi 55 lang kaya aasa na lang ako sa employer sponsored visa huhuhuu … tsaka depende din sa occupation

    Hi everyone, I'm not sure if this question has been asked before. If na-assess na ako ng ACS (got 5pts only for length of employment, 7 years lang) then after a few months my job experience turned 8 years, do I need to resubmit my qualifications to ACS to get 10 pts? Thanks!

    @its.kc ok lang po. Pero pag mainvite ka sa isa, freeze na yung EOI and hindi na maiinvite sa other subclass. Ginawa ko separate EOI. Yung SS invitation, depende po sa state, occupation and breakdown of points :)

    @rechie it’s because no one gets an invite for 189 these days if you have lower than 75 points.
