Guys, so eto ang dilemma ko. We're aiming for partner skills at eto ang magiging scenario, hoping for your inputs.
1. Primary applicant ako 233513 pro-rata occupation - 65 points before May and 70 points after May
2. Secondary applicant ako, 233211 non-pro rata occupation - 65 points
Anong path po ang may chance kaming mainvite?
