  Good day po. Submission of EOI po ako and since NT ako pwede, inaayos ko muna reqts ko. Medyo madami and masakit ang Evidence of Financial Capacity. May idea po ba if gaano katagal ang results for NT?+

  @ysabelle 6 to 8 months ang processing time for offshore applicants and 1 month for onshore ang NT. Note that if you're already in Australia, you have to show proof that you've lived and worked in the NT in your nominated occupation for at least 6 months for them to consider your application.

  @maguero thank you. i am not currently in NT and not working in my nominated occupation. 60 and 65 pts for 190 and 489 respectively. matagal pala talaga ang processing time. this will be financially and mentally draining.

  @ysabelle Have you checked the website of each state? Magkakaiba sila ng rules for sponsoring onshore applicants. Ang Tasmania yata 3 months lang ang requirement na nagwork sa state nila in a relevant job and parang hindi naman kailangan nasa priority list ang nominated occupation.
