    @BLOODYODIP hello. Binasa ko ung link. Confused din ako sa info. For 189, does it mean mas priority ung nag lodge ng July 1, 2017?

    ​​
    Effective 1 July 2017, the minister set priority processing arrangements for certain skilled migration visas. Allocation dates outlined below reflect these priority processing

    About GSM allocation dates

    The tables below list the earliest lodgement dates for applications that have been allocated to processing teams. You can use this information to determine when your application will be allocated and to ensure your application is complete and ready for assessment.

    GSM SkillSelect allocation information
    Migration Programme planning levels take precedence over priority processing arrangements in determining the order in which applications are considered. Allocations occur in accordance with the requirements of these planning levels. This means that when necessary applications in Priority Group 4 are allocated ahead of Priority Group 3.

    @coachella9 @MissOZdreamer @BLOODYODIP Sharing my insights.

    Group 3 is for visa with sponsorship - 190 or 489/state
    Group 4 is for subclass 189.

    Date indicated na July 1 is for GSM allocation for programme year 2017-2018.

    Meaning, those visa 189 lodged before that time, or tulad nung nakita ni @BLOODYODIP na form April 2017-June 2017, has already 'GSM allocated' to them, either GSM Adelaide, Brisbane, etc. And ready na for processing. hehe

    Kase kung pansin nyo, medyo mabagal yung release ng grant ngayon.

    Yan pag kaka-intindi ko.

    @Heprex salamat po. By the way yung mga medicals, kailan po ba ginagawa yun? Currently, kaka lodge palang ng eoi ko, so wait muna for invitation to apply? Kamusta pla ang pte a mo na retake ka na rin?

    @coachella9 mostly after invite yun ginagawa, kase makaka-affect yun sa IED mo. NBI at medical normally ang nakaka-affect sa IED. Kung ano ang mas maaga narelease dyan sa dalawa, add ka ng one year, yung ang IED mo.

    example:
    Medical - January 3, 2017
    NBI - July 3, 2017

    If ever nag lodge ka na ng VISA at ma-grant, lets say, sa Sept 3 2017 ka na grant.
    Ang IED mo is January 3, 2018. Meaning, uponr you visa grant, dapat activate ang visa mo before Jan 3, 2018.

    Based yan sa observation ko.

    regarding sa PTE ko, eto tuloy tuloy lang ang aral at LABAN. :)

    Hello po, ask lang po ako advice sa pagpass ng EOI. May chance pa po bang mabigyan ng grant pag 60 pts ka lang? Iniisip ko po kung ipapass ko na ngayon or kumuha muna ako ng PTE ulet in the next months (ittarget ko ang PTE 79 for +10pts). Developer Programmer po yung occupation ko. Thanks!

    @charmeleon sa eoi stage d pa relevant ang passport, sa visa lodgement sya relevant, even when you lodge your visa at nag renew ka ng passport, pwede pa din, just notify GSM and change the circumstance you are on like new details of the passport, which is possible once you have an immiaccount already and visa is already lodged.....

    hope this helps....

    @charmeleon for now, just lodge your EOI, importante ma invite ka, worry later and rectify pag may invite ka na, while waiting for the invite do something to improve your score like pataasin ang english part, nang sa gayun more chances to be invited,

    careful sa claiming ng points, lalo na sa years of experience and education qualification, jan malimit nagkakaroon ng issues, Godspeed!
