need your help po about his question sa online application ng SS from VIC. Should i say no,although meron n ako EOI, but hindi ko pa lang kasi binago pra idagdag ang visa 190 sa application ko as i have originally chosen visa 189 only.
thank you so much.
Q1.5 Have you lodged an Expression of Interest (EOI) application with the Department of Immigration and Citizenship *
Hide Help
An EOI is not a visa application, it is an indication that you would like to be considered for a skilled visa with DIAC through their SkillSelect system. Lodging an EOI prior to applying for state sponsorship is not a compulsory requirement.
Yes
No

Im now 30yrs old, so hinahabol namin yung points sa age kasi medyo malaki po db. Tapos my partner's half sister already australian citizen na but they are in Adelaide.
pwede po ba mag undergo of SS in VIC at the same here din sa NSW? kasi po parang mas maraming dairy oppurtunity in VIC than in here.
Thank you po. god bless us all

hindi ko po alam kung pano po yung sa case nyo, antay na lang tayo ng iba na baka alam nila ano dapat nyong gawin.
but regarding the SS application for NSW and VIC at the same time, pwede po yun. ako din po kasi ginawa ko yun at pareho naman na-approve pero mas pinili namin ang NSW.
good luck!

about 190 vs 176...they are both Skilled-Sponsored Migrant visas. it was called 176 before skillselect pero now it's 190 na. so wala na ngayon ang 176 kasi nagkaroon na ng skillselect starting July 2012. so 190 na lang sya ngayon.
madami din pong naka-457 visa dito sa forum. antayin lang natin mga advice nila kung pano maging PR ang 457 visa holders.

but even for them, if they want to claim points, 7-OBS (10pts), 8-OBS(20pts), they also have to take the ielts... because their exemption only assumes they have a competent english language ability, which is equivalent to 6-OBS, or Zero point in the Skill Select points system...
