5 months from now na ang latest prediction as per iscah. So that's around April 2018? Almost 1 year na yun from May 2017 lodge date. I might consider to retake the exam next month. Sobrang variable na ng circumstances and we never know when they might decide to trim down the invitations for our field. Sad naman I was banking on na we will be invited na this month

Pero if nawawala man ang isang Category, minsan binabalik din nila depende sa pangangailangan ng AU.

And nagrelease na si Iscah ng mga occupations na possibly matatanggal http://www.iscah.com/proposed-changes-skilled-lists-january-2018-mltssl-stsol-lists/ and I doubt magtatanggal sila ng nga engineering occupations anytime soon. Feel ko mas mauuna pa matatanggal yung mga IT occupations kasi sobrang saturated na ng field na yan dito.
