    @shielalables I don't think may makakasagot niyan kasi depends sa DIBP eh. Pero you can look at this to check for the trend sa 2613xx: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Wpxz_YSkxwGIDU4jaok7MkApZRJbyB8BdETAJG3eboA/htmlview

    @engineer20 Sir/Ma'am, clarify ko lang sana, hindi ito ang minimum points na need i-attain para ma-invite, it's just that majority of the invited is 70 points? Need ko pa ba taasan yung points ko po? For short may pag-asa pa kaya ako ma-invite sa visa 189 at 65 points?

    @DFVille Sagutin na rin kita. 60pts talaga minimum mainvite sa kahit anong occupation for 189 or 190 pero dahil madami applicants inuuna ng DIBP yung mas matataas points. Kaya nakalagay sa occupation mo na 70pts kasi it means priority ng DIBP 70pts at the moment kasi uubusin muna nila high pointers. Ganun rin kasi sa 2613xx occupations, 60pts minimum pero kapag more than that mas may chance mainvite ka agad. Kung kaya mo pa taasan points mo, why not? :) Para mainvite ka na agad.

    @chewychewbacca naisip ko retake ako ng ielts kasi medyo na intimidate ako sa pte tapos wala din ako materials. aside from that yung writing ko lang talaga ang nagka-7 sa ielts kaya d ko nakuha ang superior english na points. ask lang ako kung saan kaya pwede magpatulong re writing ko para ma-improve. salamat

    Hi po bagong member, but been reading the forum for a while now. @DFVille I suggest po mag PTE na kayo since yung checking nila is more lenient, intimidating at first kasi medyo iba format and mas mahirap kumpara sa IELTS. but once you get enough practice its better than IELTS, specially sa writing. Sa IELTS kasi sa writing gusto nila yung sinulat mo level ng professional writer yung content while sa PTE even if your content is not that good they will check kung maayos pagkasulat mo and yung grammar mo is ok, they consider na di tayo lahat professional writer. I myself had this dilemna tested with IELTS before got good results except writing.
