Our EOI has been approved and visa has been lodged..waiting na lang for the approval of the visa.
My question is, is the 2 year commitment under the 190 visa legally binding? Just like any new immigrant (although still waiting for the approval of our visa), we have this fear of not being able to find a job to support my family. I have 2 kids and the state that sponsored me is South Australia.
Meron na po ba dito na hindi nag fulfill but still managed to obtain citizenship without facing any problems due to not fulfilling the 2 year commitment?
Thanks in advance! Sana mareceive ko na visa approval, God willing!

As of this writing, we only have 55 pts and by May 2017, 5 pts will be added so 60 pts na by then. And I believed the system will auto update coz our agent already lodged our EOI. Will there be a chance that we will be invited maybe in May since 60 pts na kami?
Nominated Occupation: Developer Programmer(261312)
