nakakawalan ng pagasa pag under Accountant ka. ang taas na ng labanan tapos hindi pa prio sa skills. pero antay lang ibibigay din to satin mga co accountants
Joined: Apr 20, 2021
sa 189 po mataas ang point requirements, pero if 190 / 491, mas mataas and chance mainvite kahit hindi mataas ang points. Refer to below. I think yung mga points reflected below include the +5 state nomination.

@lampirate valid naman yan na fefeel mo,lalo na if matagal ka na tlg nag aantay, all you can do is to increase points while waiting, the pathway na meron ka is on the way na, wag susuko ,just add prayers and do whatever is possible na to be positive, the allocations are much higher this year compared last year ,so may chance they can allocate more for non priority occupations na di pa nainvite or less ang allocations na naissue last year.
Hopefully NSW opens the gate this year too.
VIC , TAS,NT ,QLD are inviting accountants so focus on the above states .
I believe nothing much different ang criterias nila from last year.
Victoria has not added much allocations for 190 ,491 may substantial increase - is either choose one which is more viable for you to be invited -given it is extremely competitive to be invited in your field .
Kaya yan!
