@Asala it depends on your situation. madami pong factor na pde iconsider. like work experience na need iverify, magiging result ng health exam, if may mga dependents kang isasama sa application mo.
usually yung points is used for invitation and not a factor for grant as far as I know.

accountant is 85 pts.
Meaning kung maubusan ng 85pts, meron pa 80 pts (which will just keep on increasing).
If and when maubos ang 80pts, may mga 75pts pa who submitted earlier than you.
Try to see if you can increase your pts otherwise mukhang tagilid.
I haven't been paying a lot of attention but it seems very hard to get na ang 221111 invites. 5 years ago, my wife was invited immediately with just 70pts.
all the best!

Is it okey na parehas kami mag lodge ng EOI using both for us yung partner skills and wait nalang which ever comes first will be the main applicant?
I already submitted an EOI thru my agent last Oct 2017.
For my wife, is it okey for her to submit an EOI also? We are not planning to have an agent in her case and process docs with our selves.
My wife was assessed as a Accountant (General) [ANZSCO 221111] by CPAA and got a positive feedback for her qualifications (school credentials) & 10 years work experiences.
I was assessed as an Engineering Technologist [ANZSCO 233914] by EA and got a positive feedback for my qualifications (school credentials) & 5 years work experiences.
My wifes points:
Age: 25 Points
Englsh: 10 Points (PTE ACADEMIC)
Qualification: 15 Points (BS Accountancy)
Work Exp: 15 Points (10 years - Assessed by CPA)
Partner Skills: 5 Points (Husband - Engineering Tech - ANZSCO 233914)
State Nomination: 5 Points (Hoping: NSW - SUBCLASS 190)
TOTAL POINTS: 75 POINTS
My Points:
Age: 30 Points
Englsh: 0 Points (Competent English)
Qualification: 15 Points (BS Mechanical Engineering)
Work Exp: 10 Points (5 years - Assessed by EA)
Partner Skills: 5 Points (Wife - Accountant (General) - ANZSCO 221111)
State Nomination: 5 Points (Hoping: NSW - SUBCLASS 190)
TOTAL POINTS: 65 POINTS
Hope you can give some pointers, suggestion so we can start the process na.
Thanks In Advance!!!

Sorry now ko lang nabasa yung query mo.
Mostly school creds (tor, syllabus)/ prc (rating, certificate)/ updated CV, cert of employment kasama n jan supporting docs ng employment nya. Better ayusin muna or iready lahat para incase may hingin yung assessing body di ka mag cram sa paghahanap at para ma submit lahat.
