    @rich88 Yeah, also asking those who had the same case. Thanks. Accountant, kaya mahaba pa pila naming 65pointers. Oct 2015 pa ata ang last na na-invite with 65points. Good luck to your application. Hope you receive your grant soon.

    Hi @bourne. Mali yung company name. I was so careless, I did not check when I submitted my COE, na-print pala on the letterhead of another company(within the same group). Napansin ko lang when I received the outcome letter. But it was too late, bayad ulit for update. Lesson learned, need to check carefully all docs to be submitted. Good luck din sa application mo, malapit na grant mo.

    oh i see... ikaw yung nagkamali ng lagay?

    Actually, may pinabago din ako sa skills assessment result letter ko. Pero sila (ACS) ang nagkamali. Mali ang nalagay nilang country (of employment). Ang ginawa ko, nag-email lang ako sa ACS at sinabi ko yung mali. Nagreply sila agad with the updated/corrected skills assessement (hindi nagchange ang date).

    Ilan points mo sa english exam if may i ask? @jillpot

    @binoyski10 Saang state ka nag apply bro? Usually walang definitive cycle ang ITA for 190. It's up to the discretion of the state.

    Sa VIC naman, pwede ka mag apply as soon as you lodge your EOI. they will respond within 12 weeks regarding your result.

    HI Rich88 applied both sa Vic at NSW, as per my agent info most likely NSW ang malaki chance. Applied ako dati ng Visa 189, kaso nagkaroon ng technical issue kaya na denied, hopefully ok ang 190 processing.

    @MayoMay Ikaw yung dependent diba? if claiming for partner points, competent is good enough.

    Partner skills
    You can receive five points if, when you are invited to apply for this visa, your partner provides evidence that they:
    were under 50 years of age
    had at least competent English
    had nominated an occupation on the same skilled occupation list as your nominated occupation
    had been assessed by the relevant assessing authority as having suitable skills for the nominated occupation.


    How can I prove I have competent English?
    You have achieved a test score of at least 50 in each of the four test components (speaking, reading, listening and writing) in a Pearson Test of English (PTE) Academic that has been undertaken in the three years immediately prior to lodging the visa application.

    Timeline

    @MayoMay for partner skills yes indeed you need to get the min points allowed by your assessing body to get a favorable outcome. Not sure lang yung sa profession nyo, kase yung 50 na score na sabi ni @rich88 is still not good for example sa CPAA kase as accountants we need to have atleast all 65 sa PTE in order to be assessed positively. Sorry I cannot help you fully. But check the requirements of your assessing body. ;) Don't lose hope, di lang ikaw nag nabigla sa type of test ng PTE, but once you get the hang of it baka makuha mo pa desired score mo. Take the advice of @StarJhan , after mabigay result pede ka na agad retake. Mabilis lang! But of course another bayad but it will always be worth it kase. ;)
