    Thanks @bluemist.

    I understand what you are saying. Kaya nga ako nakapag submit ng EOI kahapon dahil nag total na sya ng 60 points. What I need to find out is the given time frame (if there is) after submitting the EOI, up to when can I apply for the State Sponsorship. Usually sabay ang EOI and SS diba? Ang problema kasi, hindi ko pa mai-apply ang SS ko kasi wala pa yung outcome letter from the autorized assessment body.

    Salamat! :)

    921 invitations sent out last 16th Sept; 950 ata yung invitations available - ibig sabihin nito na if you submit an EOI with 60 points, sure ball ka makakuha ng invite pwera nalang sa 6 na occupation with limited slots available... :)

    Curious po ako. Nag submit kayo ng separate Skilled Visa application? I thought kapag mag asawa, isa lang ang magssubmit, ok na? Tapos yung isa, will just file as Partner (less requirements, and cheaper ata?)

    @mhej; In a way its a strategy we did... Initially kase i'm the primary applicant and one of the points I applied is wife partner skill for 5pts... So nag udergo din sya ng IELTS and ACS assessment... Fortunately mas mataas naging point nya sa IELTS (Band 7 minimum = 10pts) and mas nauna lumabas ACS assessment nya... Total points nya is 65 so sya naging primary... Kaya lang inabot sya ng Occupation Ceiling last September 2 and 16 invitation rounds... So to be safe pinag EOI na din ko ng agent ko last September 16 pra simultaneous...

    By God's grace we are both invited on today's round. We plan to lodge the visa tomorrow...
    The question is sinong primary applicant? Now we are thinking kung may advantage ba kung ako or my wife ang primary applicant...

    What do you think guys?

    Ah, nice. Medyo magastos though, pero if for security purposes, ok na rin yung ginawa niyo.
    Kami kasi ng partner ko, ako lang talaga ang nag apply. Luckily, di na need mag apply for partner skills kasi I was able to get 70 pts overall (thanks to IELTS 20 pts.).

    Next week pa kami mag ssubmit ng visa application (still collecting funds).

    May chance pa rin bang ma reject ang visa mo kahit may invite na? I mean, apart from possible dealbreakers in medical and others, may bearing pa ba yung points once you get the invite?

    Good news! My BF got his invitation letter last monday. He's included for the Nov 4 batch. He nominated Software Engineer as his skill. Visa date of effect was 24th of June 2013.

    So anyone who has the same credentials is most likely got his invitation already.

    Goodluck and God bless!
