    @Arpee Depends sa DIBP. Pero nakalagay sa site nila for 189, 7 months for 75% ng mga processed application. Bumaba na to kesa nung mga nakaraang buwan na 11months ung minimum. Though included na sa 7 months kung may mga needed additional docs na need ang mga CO.

    04 Sep: 68 grants
    04 Oct: 5 grants
    (data for visa 189+190 as per immitracker)

    Baka naka-leave pa mga officers. hehe.

    Occupation: 233214 (Structural Engineer)

    POINTS BREAKDOWN:
    Educ: 15 (Degree)
    Work Experience: 10 (5+ yrs)
    Language Skills: 10 (PTE-Proficient)
    Age: 30 points
    Total: 65 Points

    APPLICATION TIMELINE:

    04/03/17 - IELTS R6.5 W6.5 S7.5 L8.5 Good enough for EA Assessment (>6 each category). Haha. Self-review and not much time to practice kaya mababa scores. Haha. (Cge justify!). I think ang mali ko is nagfocus ako magreview ng Speaking and Listening.
    Note: Hindi pa acceptable ang PTE sa EA at this moment.

    24/04/17 - Submitted my application to EA.

    25/05/17 - EA requested for additional evidence of employment. I initially submitted Income Tax Return from my 2 employers so supposed to be enough. But since they requested more I uploaded my payslips then.

    15/06/17 - Finally! Received positive outcome from EA. Yuhoo!

    (Since not enough pa din IELTS english points ko to get total points higher than 60 requirement for Visa, i took another exam from PTE. Sabi nila mas madali daw kesa IELTS. Eh di Go! Tsaka sayang din yung score ko sa IELTS-Speaking baka bumaba pa. Haha)

    03/07/17 - Took PTE Exam. Hindi Madali!!! Haha. Siguro kulang ulit sa practice. Lol. I wasn't expecting na makapasa kasi may part sa lecture na wala akong nasabi. Haha. Pero yun, naka-74 ave. pa din. I therefore conclude na lenient talaga sila magscore. Hahaha. PTE Scores: L73, R71, S78, W83 (Results are out the next day)

    05/07/17 - Submitted EOI 189. Start ng fiscal year so everyone's expecting ng buhos ng invitation. Tan-tanan! Haha.

    10/08/17 - Super tagal ng invitation! Daming bad news (nag-cut ng staff ang dibp, processing time updated from 3 months, na naging 7 months then naging 11 months) Sa inip nagpasa ng EOI 190 for NSW. Dito lang pwede structural engr mag-EOI na walang show money eh. Haha. Sana pala Civil Engineer na lang occupation na pinili ko.

    06/09/17 - I got invited this round! Since ang tagal nga di ako nag-eexpect na kasama ako. Pero yehey! So I scheduled immediately for COC-Eappeal here in sg. Nagsked na din for medical (SATA Online).

    11/09/17 - SPF notified me that my e-appeal was approved. So I set appointment for fingerprinting. Got my COC on 15-Sep.

    16/09/17 - I am expecting to have my health exam. But decided to call SATA (the clinic) first to confirm my booking. They said they do not accept booking thru online. #Haist. The next available weekend dates are on the week after.

    23/09/17 - Had my Health Exam at SATA Ang Mo Kio. Results came out after 1 working day only.

    25/09/17 - Finally I LODGED MY VISA!!! Yuhoo ulit. I submitted all docs na pwede i-submit hoping for DG, hehe. (Forms 80 and 1221 included) Iniisip ko pa actually ano pa pwede ko i-add. haha.

    30/09/17 - Habang nag-aantay ng grant, mag-analyze muna ako. hehe.

    As per myimmitracker, below are the nos. of grants (For 189 lang ha) for the past 3 months:

    July : 29 grants
    Aug: 86 grants
    Sep: 611 grants.
    Mabilis nag-escalate ang nos from aug-sep. So I think nagsisimula na sila magmadali starting Sep. So Oct will also be the same. May quota kasi sila need mainvite per occupation kaya dapat maghabol talaga sila. So I am expecting showers of grants for the month of Oct. "Expecting". haha.

    God bless sa mga kasama kong nag-eexpect ng grant! and sa mga
    waiting for ITA next week na ang invitation round. All the best sating lahat! Power!!

    10/11/17 - Finally! Praise God! While busy working i accidentally opened my email and saw the new message from border.gov.au. Nanginig akong bigla sa tuwa. haha. I was supposed not to tell it yet to my family para surprise but I cannot contain it. Overjoyed feeling once mareceive mo ang iyong grant.

    God bless to the rest na nag-aapply pa lang and sa lahat ng waiting ng grants nila. Darating din yan at God's appointed time. :)

    06/09/17 - I got invited this round! Since ang tagal nga di ako nag-eexpect na kasama ako. Pero yehey! So I scheduled immediately for COC-Eappeal here in sg. Nagsked na din for medical (SATA Online).

    11/09/17 - SPF notified me that my e-appeal was approved. So I set appointment for fingerprinting. Got my COC on 15-Sep.

    16/09/17 - I am expecting to have my health exam. But decided to call SATA (the clinic) first to confirm my booking. They said they do not accept booking thru online. #Haist. The next available weekend dates are on the week after.

    23/09/17 - Had my Health Exam at SATA Ang Mo Kio. Results came out after 1 working day only.

    25/09/17 - Finally I LODGED MY VISA!!! Yuhoo ulit. I submitted all docs na pwede i-submit hoping for DG, hehe. (Forms 80 and 1221 included) Iniisip ko pa actually ano pa pwede ko i-add. haha.

    30/09/17 - Habang nag-aantay ng grant, mag-analyze muna ako. hehe.

    As per myimmitracker, below are the nos. of grants (For 189 lang ha) for the past 3 months:

    July : 29 grants
    Aug: 86 grants
    Sep: 611 grants.
    Mabilis nag-escalate ang nos from aug-sep. So I think nagsisimula na sila magmadali starting Sep. So Oct will also be the same. May quota kasi sila need mainvite per occupation kaya dapat maghabol talaga sila. So I am expecting showers of grants for the month of Oct. "Expecting". haha.

    God bless sa mga kasama kong nag-eexpect ng grant! and sa mga
    waiting for ITA next week na ang invitation round. All the best sating lahat! Power!!

    10/11/17 - Finally! Praise God! While busy working i accidentally opened my email and saw the new message from border.gov.au. Nanginig akong bigla sa tuwa. haha. I was supposed not to tell it yet to my family para surprise but I cannot contain it. Overjoyed feeling once mareceive mo ang iyong grant.

    God bless to the rest na nag-aapply pa lang and sa lahat ng waiting ng grants nila. Darating din yan at God's appointed time. :)

    Nyahaha @Heprex @MissM. No time to watch kdrama or anime. Pero may time ako magcheck ng status at forum. Haha. Anyway thanks. hehe.

    Occupation: 233214 (Structural Engineer)

    POINTS BREAKDOWN:
    Educ: 15 (Degree)
    Work Experience: 10 (5+ yrs)
    Language Skills: 10 (PTE-Proficient)
    Age: 30 points
    Total: 65 Points

    APPLICATION TIMELINE:

    04/03/17 - IELTS R6.5 W6.5 S7.5 L8.5 Good enough for EA Assessment (>6 each category). Haha. Self-review and not much time to practice kaya mababa scores. Haha. (Cge justify!). I think ang mali ko is nagfocus ako magreview ng Speaking and Listening.
    Note: Hindi pa acceptable ang PTE sa EA at this moment.

    24/04/17 - Submitted my application to EA.

    25/05/17 - EA requested for additional evidence of employment. I initially submitted Income Tax Return from my 2 employers so supposed to be enough. But since they requested more I uploaded my payslips then.

    15/06/17 - Finally! Received positive outcome from EA. Yuhoo!

    (Since not enough pa din IELTS english points ko to get total points higher than 60 requirement for Visa, i took another exam from PTE. Sabi nila mas madali daw kesa IELTS. Eh di Go! Tsaka sayang din yung score ko sa IELTS-Speaking baka bumaba pa. Haha)

    03/07/17 - Took PTE Exam. Hindi Madali!!! Haha. Siguro kulang ulit sa practice. Lol. I wasn't expecting na makapasa kasi may part sa lecture na wala akong nasabi. Haha. Pero yun, naka-74 ave. pa din. I therefore conclude na lenient talaga sila magscore. Hahaha. PTE Scores: L73, R71, S78, W83 (Results are out the next day)

    05/07/17 - Submitted EOI 189. Start ng fiscal year so everyone's expecting ng buhos ng invitation. Tan-tanan! Haha.

    10/08/17 - Super tagal ng invitation! Daming bad news (nag-cut ng staff ang dibp, processing time updated from 3 months, na naging 7 months then naging 11 months) Sa inip nagpasa ng EOI 190 for NSW. Dito lang pwede structural engr mag-EOI na walang show money eh. Haha. Sana pala Civil Engineer na lang occupation na pinili ko.

    06/09/17 - I got invited this round! Since ang tagal nga di ako nag-eexpect na kasama ako. Pero yehey! So I scheduled immediately for COC-Eappeal here in sg. Nagsked na din for medical (SATA Online).

    11/09/17 - SPF notified me that my e-appeal was approved. So I set appointment for fingerprinting. Got my COC on 15-Sep.

    16/09/17 - I am expecting to have my health exam. But decided to call SATA (the clinic) first to confirm my booking. They said they do not accept booking thru online. #Haist. The next available weekend dates are on the week after.

    "Generally, permanent skilled applications will be allocated in order date of lodgement. However from time to time the Department will allocate newer applications for assessment for pipeline management purposes. This is likely to continue in future to help with efficient management of the substantial on-hand caseload and the identified increase in low integrity applications" --> Link

    - Eto naman pala. hehe Random din lang yung newer applications. Kakastart palang kasi ng year kaya mejo matumal cguro, yung mga Sept 4 na grants was before July e. May nabasa ko last year, 3 days lang sya nag hintay, grant na e. Meron din naman akong kilala almost a year na, 4th CO contact. Yung mga CO contact na yun were all PCC's dahil sa UAE 3 months lang expired na.
