Newbie here. I just submitted EOI skill select invitation for 190 NSW SS. My current points is 55 + 5 (SS).
Eto po mga question ko:
1) Normally po ba para ma invite dapat mataas ang points or minsan tinitingnan din ba nila yung field mo? 3423 ang skill nominated ko.
2) Ilang days po kaya bago sila mag email for invite?
3) After nung invite po ba dun nman yung application ng nomination tama po ba? Based po sa nabasa ko d2 na din mag bayad po ba ng 330AUD po ba?
4) Ilang days nman po tumatagal ang application ng nomination ng 190 for NSW?
5) After po na ma nominate, d2 nman po ba yung ITA na tinatawag? Ilang days nman po ito para ma grant ka ng visa?
Sorry po medyo madami questions, need ko lng po kc mag plan ng timeline nmin for this coming 6 months.. Salamat ng marami.

Newbie here. I just submitted EOI skill select invitation for 190 NSW SS. My current points is 55 + 5 (SS).
Eto po mga question ko:
1) Normally po ba para ma invite dapat mataas ang points or minsan tinitingnan din ba nila yung field mo? 3423 ang skill nominated ko. - -----mahirap malaman ang criteria dito, Im invited after about 2 weeks (timeline), pero may mga backread ako na months na wala pang envite. 55+5 pts ako.
2) Ilang days po kaya bago sila mag email for invite? -------- I got mine for NSW after about 2 weeks (timeline), depende ata sa CO at circumstances mo.
3) After nung invite po ba dun nman yung application ng nomination tama po ba? Based po sa nabasa ko d2 na din mag bayad po ba ng 330AUD po ba?------- tama!
4) Ilang days nman po tumatagal ang application ng nomination ng 190 for NSW? ------iba iba din to, sa akin halos 2 weeks
5) After po na ma nominate, d2 nman po ba yung ITA na tinatawag? Ilang days nman po ito para ma grant ka ng visa? -----tama! After mo mag apply sa NSW website, ITA naman hintayin. ang ITA ay may 60days validity from the date you narecieve. After lodging iba iba din ang time of grant, depende ata sa case mo at sa CO. Base sa mga backreads ko, madalas within 2 months nabibigyan, although may mga matagal din talaga.
God bless sa processing mo!
