    @lottysatty - I think this is perhaps a lead that our group 2335 will remain in the list although it is not yet official.

    Sabi kasi sa blog na possible for lodging. Ehh mga agents ang mga yan, so most likely they have insights. Pero anything can happen pa as long as wala pang official announcements.

    Another good news for us folks. Just the end of this day, the 2017-18 Australian Federal Budget has been approved. As for immigration program for 2017-18, the target number of immigrants will still remain at 190,000 places (same as last year's program 2016-17) and most likely there will be no significant changes on the MLTSSL. I hope so....

    For your information, DIBP did not attained the 190,000 target from last year's program and one of the reason for that was the PRO-RATA restrictions on some of the occupations.

    http://www.minister.border.gov.au/peterdutton/2017/Pages/budget-2017-18.aspx

    There are some changes on the visa application fees that intended for their modernization and border security program.

    https://www.border.gov.au/ReportsandPublications/Documents/budget/visa-price-increase-fact-sheet-2017-18.pdf

    God Bless on us mga ka-2335 folks!

    Hello kababayans! Here are some of my queries that might help our other kababAyans.

    1. Base on experience is it guaranteed to get an invitation if I achieve 65 points upon applying for visa 189 under 2335 Occupation?

    2. How many months should I wait again to get an invite if ever I apply for this visa with 65points? and how long to get an invite under 190 if I had 70 points?

    3. Is it possible to apply for tWo separate EOI account one for 189 and one for 190?

    4. How do I monitor if malapit n akong mainvite sa either of the two visa? possible po b itong mamonitor?

    I would like to answer each of your question:

    1. I don't use term "quaranteed' instead I use "chances" OR "possibility". There are several on queues on this group since it was under Pro-Rata restiction last year.

    The last 65 EOI points invitation round is on April 12, 2017 with 34 invitations made and EOI cut-off date is November 19, 2017. link: https://www.border.gov.au/WorkinginAustralia/Pages/12-april-2017-round-results.aspx

    So most likely a 60 EOI pointer will no longer get an ITA because of the volume of candidates in 2335 for next year program.

    2. For 189, perhaps I would like to share this to you an analysis made by ISCAH: http://www.iscah.com/pro-rata-estimated-invitation-times-from-july-2017/

    To give you an overview on your chances of getting an ITA, see this link: https://gettingdownunder.com/chances-getting-australian-visa/

    It says that if you lodge an EOI this day (for our group 2335), most probably you can get an ITA on January 2018 due to long queues.

    For 190, I don't have the exact information. I think it depends on the procedure of each state.

    3. Yes, you can apply both or (190 and 189) even more than two applications since in 190, there are several states to apply for. But for 189, you can only have one application. Swerte ka pa nga pre, kung 233512 yung occupation mo, it is the only occupation in group 2335 that is not on caveats restriction, meaning pwede ka for 190 kami ay hinde. :(

    4. Always look for this link. https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Work/Skil (official link)

    It will provide updates from time to time. Always look for the cut-off score and cut-off date on each invitation round. You can anticipate your ITA given the number of invites made and the progress of EOI cut-off dates per round. Invitation rounds will be made on each 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of the month. If your occupation is under Pro-Rata, it will have separate updates from the common. (updates will be 1-2 weeks evry after invitation rounds)



    I would like to share this to you: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hDMwZx2ba47Fe-pwKOgzNOYKbjSmqLOXAbsDvCEfWyY/edit#gid=2057441735

    This is how the invitation rounds works. Please see attached (non pro-rata rounds included)

    @levimervin Thank you for this very informative reply. Here is my current case;

    Occupation: 233512 (5-8 yrs) - 10 points
    PTE-A: 83W, 83L, 90S, 71R - 10 points
    AGE: 25-32 - 30 points
    EDUCATION: - 15 points
    Current EOI status application applied for 189 only: Updated May.16,2017

    Right now I'm looking for best option advice for me if I should apply for separate EOI account one for 189 and one for 190. I really want to get a grant visa under 189 so I could choose to migrate the same location with my relative so they could support me interms of rent expense and others. But for the information you have shown, worried ako xe mukhang mtatagalan p ung invite base on my occupation since Jan. 2018 p and my EOI is about to expire on May. 24,2018 n.

    1. Should I apply for another EOI account for 190 nmn and hoping n I could get an early invitation before my EOI expires? Mas mlaki kya ang chances dito n mkakuha ng early invite for my occupation?

    2. Or should I hit suspend on my current EOI then create new EOI account to apply for 189 again, will this time mgaadjust b ung timeline n 2 years expiration ng EOI? what happens when my EOI expires.

    3. Is hiring an AGENT will be an advantage pra mpabilis ka mainvite for 189 or no bearing?

    4. If I choose 190 then commence after 2 years, what happens next? do I need to apply for 189 visa nmn so I could have a choice to migrate to other locations?

    Thanks!

    These are just my opinion base sa nalalaman ko, open po ito for correction kung may mali :)

    1. Actually in your case masmadali mainvite sa 189 just try to improve PTE scores to superior. 190 kasi will depend sa demand ng state.

    2. You can make as many EOI as you can :) pero since tight ang competition, yung effective date ang basehan ng invite so better keep your old EOI. Gawa ka nlang pag dika pa nainvite at paexpire na ito.

    3. No bearing

    4. 190 is almost the same sa 189. Same lng silang PR. Sa 190 nga lng my moral obligation ka to live and work sa state who nominated you for at least 2 yrs para di ka magkaron ng issue on applying citizenship in the future. Once the obligation is fulfilled, you are as good as 189, no need to re apply.

    @levimervin Thank you for this very informative reply. Here is my current case;

    Occupation: 233512 (5-8 yrs) - 10 points
    PTE-A: 83W, 83L, 90S, 71R - 10 points
    AGE: 25-32 - 30 points
    EDUCATION: - 15 points
    Current EOI status application applied for 189 only: Updated May.16,2017

    Right now I'm looking for best option advice for me if I should apply for separate EOI account one for 189 and one for 190. I really want to get a grant visa under 189 so I could choose to migrate the same location with my relative so they could support me interms of rent expense and others. But for the information you have shown, worried ako xe mukhang mtatagalan p ung invite base on my occupation since Jan. 2018 p and my EOI is about to expire on May. 24,2018 n.

    1. Should I apply for another EOI account for 190 nmn and hoping n I could get an early invitation before my EOI expires? Mas mlaki kya ang chances dito n mkakuha ng early invite for my occupation?

    2. Or should I hit suspend on my current EOI then create new EOI account to apply for 189 again, will this time mgaadjust b ung timeline n 2 years expiration ng EOI? what happens when my EOI expires.

    3. Is hiring an AGENT will be an advantage pra mpabilis ka mainvite for 189 or no bearing?

    4. If I choose 190 then commence after 2 years, what happens next? do I need to apply for 189 visa nmn so I could have a choice to migrate to other locations?

    Thanks!



    You're Welcome! (Maui's song from Moana, hehe!)

    I try to answer you're questions, I may not have the most reliable answers but I hope this will be some sort of basis of information:

    1. I don't know about making another account for 190 since I hired a migration agent for my own. You have a good scores in PTE, why dont you try another one? Kunti nlang kulang mo para maging superior na ang Language mo, you need 79 points on each skills sa PTE, kulang mo nalang yung Reading mo is 71. Malaki ang chances mo if you have EOI better than 65 points, lalo na pagmakuha mo yung superior language, 75 points yung EOI mo.

    2. I dont know about the basis sa expirations sa EOI, is it sa last update OR sa first entry mo (need to have more research on that).


    3. I hired a migration agent, I don't think they can help for your chances for fast ITA. It is up to your EOI scores. I used migration agent for convenience on my part for exhausting processes since I am very busy in my work. I don't have much confidence in acquiring documents, they guided me all throughout the process, expensive nga lang, pero its a big help for me, especially if you have hectice schedules.

    4. I don't have a clue. hehe! What I know is you can leave the sponsor state after two years.

    I hope I contribute significant information.

    Ka 2335 -- just wanted to share this information coming from acacia. It seems that we will expect a much stiffer competition for the next program year.

    If you have the change to improve your EOI score, do it! 65 EOI score is still among the long queues ahead.

    @Grifter I already updated my EOI. For TRN I input the "Reference ID" of my PTE as shown on image below. In conclusion, Un option nlng tlga n mkakuha ng all 79 s PTE ang chance to boost EOI points and greater chances for 189 invite for 2017-2018 program year. Medyo npagod n dn xe ako mgexm laging kapos scores ko before sobrang affected budget finance q. I've taken 3-IELTS & 5-PTE times n. Nswertehan q lng ung last PTE q n mkakuha ng mataas after more than 1 year of processing and waiting. Tpos hearing here about the tight competition, tlgang medyo nkakapanghina and feel's like I need to wait for a little more longer without guarantee. Pero I am still hopeful habng may buhay may pag-asa! hehe.. Try ng try and Pray! thanks for your advice!

    @PinoyMech I feel you. Halos pareho lang tayo pinagdaraanan. Parang bang daming stumbling blocks....? Ako nga since 2012 nagsimula ako, kaso kulang ng 1 career episode para sa CDR, at money is the concern that year. Tapos nung may 3 career episodes na ako at may financial support na, sa Language na naman. haha!

    Hindi naman po mabilis :), Nov. 2016 pa ako nag-EOI pero sa kasamaang palad inabutan ng pro-rata ang 60 pointers ko kaya napilitan ako mag-take ng PTE, ayun nung Feb. 2017 sa awa ni Lord nakapag-take at nakakuha ng additional 10 points kaya nainvite agad the next round :D Sa ngayon naghihintay nalang ng golden email :)

    Guyz, this is worth sharing. It seems visa processing times will be faster compared to previous ones.

    @Grifter Hehe! Yung Combined List ay [(MLTSSL-16 Caveats) + STSOL] is eligible for 190, 485 (state sponsored), 457, 187....

    Yung MLTSSL ay eligible for 189, 485 (family sponsored), 489,....

    May mga occupations sa MLTSSL na andun sa Combined List except those 16 Caveats Occupations (including 233511 & 233513), meaning pwede xa sa lahat ng schemes.

    Kaya tayo 233511 at 233513, sa visa 189 lang tayo......hehe! buti pa ang 233512 ay hindi kasali.
