PTE taken twice to get superior score and was successful.
Completed my documents within a month, struggled with my CDR but was able to complete it. It's easier pala if you do it your own, just try to recall how you did your projects. But I can't say yet na it's successful, not yet until i receive positive results from EA.
This waiting game makes me so anxious, i am just so thankful that i get to learn about pinoyau. Reading about success stories here makes me wanna pursue it the more.
Goodluck to all dream seekers out there!!!
God bless!!!

My recommendation is to check your skills besides production as most jobs in Australia immediately were into blue collar jobs and mining. Set in yourself gaining new jobs available at your present location state as it is quite hard to begin from the start being a new migrant. Just take all your chances available and gain local jobs - the more the better regardless of the given salary rate your employer may offer. At a start, get construction white card induction online around 60-70 AUD coupled with your official full driving license or Type C (a must). Keep applying until you find your right or suitable in-line profession jobs.
For those starters, keep your inquiries coming as I won't hesitate to share my stint here so far.

It's just so sad that I can't look for other Anzsco code. My experiences are more on semicon, electronic assembly and automotive manufacturing. (Any advise... Anyone please...)
I checked Seek.com and i found a lot of opportunities in Melbourne, maybe 2335 group can also consider Victoria as their state, although they said cost of living is higher.
Just to share, my friend (ECE grad), who now lives in Melbourne, found a job as customer service (finance) within 3 months after they settled. His husband found a job after a month in IT industry as helpdesk support while their 9y/o son is enrolled in childcare.
To add, the main applicant is the hubby and they worked at BPO before OZ that's why they weren't able to explore Eng'g opportunities in Australia.
I encourage anyone who can help give insights as @jedh_g _g, whose pretty informative. Thanks and God bless us all.

I took the test twice to get the superior score. I would advise you to buy a mock test, ksi most likely same format ang makukuha mo sa actual exam, at least sa akin gnun ngyari. Napanood ko kc sa site ng pearson ung statement ng ceo n replica ang mgiging exam. Then ayun nga, replica cia of format and number of ques per type. Unless, naghigpit kasi ang dami n nkkkuha ng superior. The very reason kaya 75 n mostly nai-invite.
Pero ikaw pa rin magdi-dictate in your own convenient time para mg take na ng pte.
About dun sa pwedeng changes, mahirap i-predict yan, what we can do is to hope for the best and read at "Iscah.com".

Hello
Yup meron na same thread like this as pointed out by @gibo43, and it's a bit lengthy already, but I guess you can get some stuff you want to know around our occupation through that if you scan through the pages.
On your question about 190 over 189, yes it's longer for 189 ngayon because priority talaga ang 190 sa allocation. If NSW is no issue for you, I suggest you submit EOI for that as well. Ako naman, mas priority sa amin to go to Melbourne kase meron kami family don, kaya we opted to have 189, pero yun nga, tagal ng waiting. Sa January batch namin, lahat granted na ang mga 190 and I think currently they are running the June batch, pero sa 189, it's still somewhere Nov-Dec batch pa. So 190 is a good option.

Online review lang ako tsaka videos from agent. Nagdownload din ako ng grammar apps. Kasi yung right prepositions medyo lito ako.
Under RESPALL, mahal pero able to save time nmn studying the process. Ok na rin.
Mock test mas mahirap sa actual.. 50-60 lang score ko, baka dahil sa noise ng headset. Ang lau sa actual score.. Kaya use it lang para maging familiar ka sa test types.
Waiting for EA result ako. Ano field ka po?

I would suggest na ganito nalang gawin nyo
1. Take pte. Aim for superior kung kaya para maganda points
2. Complete na ba cdrs nyo? If yes pass agad pagbalik ng results ng pte
3. While waiting for the result prepare all docs needed.
4. Submit agad eoi as soon as bumalik na results ng assessment. Baka mauna pa uwi ng partner nyo if ever
Unfortunately, this cannot be achieved in a month. So talagang aabutan kayo ng july. But still submit nontheless. Changes ata will only affect benefiys sa mga may anak na.

Yes I think they closed the 190 nomination sa Victoria for now, but the 189 is open for any state.
What I meant na matagal ang waiting is on the grant na. For EOI yes it is score dependent and if pro-rata or hindi, the Iscah estimate is a good reference as well. Yes I think they are not giving invites for pro-rata, parang na basa ko yun before, especially Auditors.
Based on this list, parang hindi pa naman matatanggal ang EE, so ok lang yan.

I had shared my experience to prepare aspirants but not to discourage you to pursue your dreams here with your families. My point is to prepare your mind mentally to accept the changes as I had heaps of odd jobs just to have the family survive decently for house rent, bills and as applicable pay migration debts back to the PHL.
Keep the questions coming in, I know how you feel as I've been that skeptic when I first landed here. But it's all worth the wait.
