1. take English Exam, IELTS or PTE-A
2. have your skills assessed by relevant assessing authority, assessment fee needed
3. if 2 is positive, lodge an EOI
4. if invited, have your medical and documentary requirements ready and pay the visa lodgement fee
5. upload all documentary evidences, and wait for the decision.
6. follow this thread for more guidance,

very good point, it is very detrimental to your application ifever ma invite ka, kasi ilalagay mo sa eoi mo date of assessment, ngayon pag ang actual assessment mo ay d match sa idineclare mo sa eoi, it will be a ground for denial kasi misdeclaration yun.
my advice wait for the assessment outcome... para walang hassle, one step at a time, sooner ul get there...
