From what I've researched, the most suitable visa we can apply for is VISA 189. Do you guys think this is the best course for us considering our qualifications?
We are planning to shift careers towards IT as we're not happy with the professional growth our current jobs give us. If we quit and change jobs before we get to three years of employment, are we still eligible for the overseas work experience points?
I have relatives in Melbourne who are more than welcome to help us when we get there, is there another VISA class I/we can apply for considering this?
Looking forward to your answers! TIA!

If I am right that EA requires a minimum number of years of experience, let's say three years, then you would not be able to get a positive skills assessment. Hence, no chance to apply for 189/190.
Also, with regards to the claiming of points, it will also depend on the assesent of EA. Some assessing body, like ACS, based from what I have read, they are deducting some years of experience from an applicant. Thus, you wont be able to claim points from work. You may want to check out EA thread..
On the other hand, if you would want to improve your scores, you can do so in English exams. There you can claim max of 20 points.

Actually, you can still get a positive assesment eventhouth you have less than 3 years of experience . However, You may not be able to claim points for work experience which is minimum 3 years for 5 points.
But dont be discouraged because you can still be able to reach at least 60 points.
which is the minimum to be invited.
what i can see is that you can claim points for:
Age: 30 (25yrs old)
EA assessment: 15 points (professional engineer/engg technologist)
Work experience: 0 ( if less than 3 yrs experience)
English: 10 (or 20 depending on your score)
Partner skills: 5 points
State sponsorship: 5 pts ( if you go for 190)
TOTAL: 60/65/70 points
Kaya yan pre, Cheers

A few questions po, about dun sa claiming ng points for work experience, kailangan ba sa same company or industry ko makuya yung 3 yrs na work experience bago maging eligible sa points?
Also sa assessment by EA, hindi ba too optimistic yung 15 points? Di ba sila maselan sa pag grant ng ganung score?
Last is dun sa partner skills, kung di pa kami kinakasal eh pwede pa din ba ma earn yung points na yun? Or kailangan married para makuha yung 5 pts? Salamat!!

Kahit anong relax at inom ng pineapple juice, hindi tlga cya bumaba.
Ang ending may pina additional test yung clinic, pina ECG at nag require ng creatinine test ako.
After that, pinauwi na ako.Natakot din ako sa magiging results, baka ma deny application ko dahil doon.
So far, naging okey naman lahat. na grant naman Visa ko.
