    May tanong pala ulet ako. From "received" na status sa immiaccount, mag papalit ba yun kapag on process na? TIA

    Sa experience ko po from "Received", naging "Finalized" na agad. Then nareceive ko na din yung email attachment ng visa grant.

    @anntotsky sorry for the late reply. recommended po talaga mag PTE kayo to increase yung score. medyo mahigpit na kasi labanan. di ko lang sure kung ano trend sa skill code nyo pero the higher the score, the better. and check nyo din ibang options like 190 and 489.

    @anntotsky Hi Ma'am, make sure na makuwa ang superior english kasi mahigpit ang labanan ngayon. Check iscah if kelan estimate ng EOI nyo. Things are not looking good for 70 and below especially sa ICT na pro rata.

    Also, to keep things in perspective, I was a 70 pointer for 189 and 75 pointer sa 190. Almost a year ako nagintay wala pa ring invite. Then finally naka superior ako ng PTE kaya ako nainvite.

    October 16, 2017 - Got first results of ACS. Wrong ANZCO, needed to reapply.
    December 11, 2017 - Took PTE. (L-78 | R-90 | S-90 | W-76)(Result = Proficient)
    Feb 28, 2018 - Reapplied for ACS 261313 (Software Engineer).
    April 17, 2018 - Got ACS results. (Result = Suitable)
    April 18, 2018 - Submitted EOI. (189 | 70 | 26313 Software
    Engineer)
    April 18, 2018 - Submitted EOI. (190 VIC | 70 + 5 | 26313 Software Engineer)
    May 5, 2018 - Submitted EOI. (190 NSW | 70 + 5 | 26313 Software Engineer)
    June 26 - PTE Retake. (L-77 | R-90 | S-90 | W-80) (Result = Proficient)
    July 3, 2018 - Submitted EOI. (190 QLD | 75 | 26313 Software Engineer)
    July 25, 2018 - QLD 190 INVITE.
    August 25, 2018 - Cancelled QLD pre-invite because no Job offer.
    Oct 1, 2018 - PTE Retake. (L-78 | R-80 | S-90 | W-81) (Result = Proficient)
    Oct 18, 2018 - PTE Retake. (L-81 | R-90 | S-90 | W-90) (Result = Superior)
    Oct 19, 2018 - EOI Update. (189 | 80 | 190 NSW / VIC | 80 + 5)
    Nov 10, 2018 - 189 INVITE.
    Nov 15, 2018 - NSW 190 INVITE.
    Nov 22, 2018 - Lodged VISA 189. Let's go!
    Nov 27, 2018 - VIC 190 INVITE.
    Nov 27, 2018 - Medicals done. Waiting game begins.
