    @patrick_gn2 yung visa category depende kung nasa SOL or CSOL yung occupation mo. Pag nasa SOL visa category 189 or pued din 190, pag CSOL visa 190 lng. Maganda yung 189 kc walang moral obligation for 2 years dun sa state na nag sponsor sayo so pued ka pumili kung saan mo gusto pumunta after visa grant. Me additional 5 points ka nga lng pag nakakuha ka ng state sponsorship.
