Yes sa 189 for 80 points medyo pahirapan na talaga to impossible. Pero hanggang pwede pa sa state nominations, may pag asa pa.

Good day!
Ask ko lang po sana..meron po ba dito nakaexperience na nirequest din po ng biometrics upon lodging ng 491 visa application then ang current location po ay Pinas?.
Ang situation po kasi namin is yung wife ko ay nasa UAE then ako po nasa Pinas. Upon lodging po ng 491 visa application namin, I expect po na siya lang yung mag bbiometrics. But, both of us po ay nirequire na magbiometrics.
Maraming Salamat po sa sasagot.

Do I need to submit separate EOI to state's website apart from skill select EOI? Or only selected states? TIA. Stay safe.

Im a nurse. If your in my case, would you wait for 190 or 189 or go with 491 FS? Point is 80 for 189, 85 for 190. I heard, essential workers are priority pero not sure if its true. May eoi ako last april sa vic pero that time 70 points plng ako. Then i took pte and got superior. Im planning na magpsponsor sa pinsan ko for 491 (first degree cousin in regional QLD) pero naisip ko, baka may chance ako to get 190? May agent doesnt want na magEOI ako sa ibang state. Gusto nila VIC lang or isa lang kasi mas malaki daw chance to be invited if ndi multiple EOIs.

This might not be a glitch for everyone.
I just received the same email, and checked my EOI. Under the DoHA Correspondence section, there's a new entry dated 30 Jul 2020 AEST, informing me that my points got updated. This is due to my current job experience.
