@RheaMARN1171933 thank you!!!

cyborg5 · June 2018

Confirm ko lang, di dapat sabay e-tick ang 189 at 190 sa EOI kasi pag na una ka invite ni 190, di kana ma invite ni 189? (With 189 being preferable kasi no territory strings attached)

@cyborg5 create separate EOIs pra din mas flexible

Hello,

I uploaded my documents but I have reached the maximum attachments allowed under my name and there are still other relevant documents that needed uploading. Shall I just wait for a CO to contact me for further instructions?

Kind Regards.

cucci · June 2018

@Anne2018 Submitted na ba ang application mo? If di pa naman, have those multiple-paged documents combined as one before uploading them to IMMI. There are online sites that can combine pdf files and even resize them to fit the 5mb limit per document.

Otherwise, antay ka na lang talaga ng CO contact.

RheaMARN1171933 · June 2018

@Anne2018 you can upload documents under your dependents as well. Should be fine and accepted.

cyborg5 · June 2018

Napansin ko lang closed lahat ng state nominations for 190, so pag nag lodge ngaun is automatical onfile for next fy? Or delete nila lahat ng eoi para simula lahat every fy

Hello po! Good day to all. Newbie lang po ako.

Kindly orient me on how things work po. Bago po ba process ng step by step application?

Thank you!

Hi. Question lang po. Need na ba kumuha ng Police Clearance while waiting for invites? kakasubmit ko lng ng EOI. Meron na ako NBI, May idea ba kayo paano kumuha ng PCC (Good Conduct Cert) sa UAE? Thanks po. :-)

FYI...

https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2018L00920/Explanatory Statement/Text

Migration (IMMI 18/067: Pool and Pass Marks for General Skilled Migration Visas) Instrument 2018

(Subsections 96(1) and 96(2) of the Act)

1. Instrument IMMI 18/067 is made under subsections 96(1) and (2) of the Migration Act 1958 (the Act).

2. The instrument repeals Pass Marks and Pool Marks in relation to Applications for General Skilled Migration Visas (Classes VE, VC, VF, VB, SI, SN and SP) (IMMI 12/017) (F2012L01317) under subsection 33(3) of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 (the AIA). Subsection 33(3) of the AIA states that where an Act confers a power to make, grant or issue any instrument of a legislative or administrative character, the power shall be construed as including a power exercisable in the like manner and subject to the like conditions (if any) to repeal, rescind, revoke, amend, or vary any such instrument.

3. The instrument operates to set a pool and pass mark of 65 for the “points” system under Subdivision B of Division 3 of Part 2 of the Act for the following three classes of visa where an application is made on or after 1 July 2018 in response to an invitation given by the Minister on or after 1 July 2018:

· a Skilled – Independent (Permanent) (Class SI) visa;

· a Skilled – Nominated (Permanent) (Class SN) visa; and

· a Skilled – Regional Sponsored (Provisional) (Class SP) visa.

4. For these visas, the instrument sets the pool and pass mark at 65 points. This pass mark reflects the high level of interest in skilled migration to Australia and the high calibre of prospective applicants who express their interest in the General Skilled Migration program. This pass mark is consistent with the level set for the points test under repealed regulation 2.26AB, in effect until 1 July 2013.

5. The instrument preserves the pool and pass mark from the previous instrument for all visa applications for the above visas made before, on or after 1 July 2018 in response to an invitation given by the Minister before 1 July 2018.

6. The instrument also preserves from the previous instrument, all pre-existing pool and pass marks for outstanding applications for the following repealed visa subclasses made before 1 July 2011, and between 1 July 2011 and 1 July 2013:

· a Subclass 175 (Skilled – Independent) visa;

· a Subclass 176 (Skilled – Sponsored) visa;

· a Subclass 475 (Skilled – Regional Sponsored) visa;

· a Subclass 487 (Skilled – Regional Sponsored) visa;

· a Subclass 885 (Skilled – Independent) visa; and

· a Subclass 886 (Skilled – Sponsored) visa.

7. These visa subclasses were repealed on 1 July 2013 by item [26] of Schedule 2 to the Migration Amendment Regulation 2012 (No. 2). Clause 102 of Schedule 13 to the Migration Regulations 1994 provides that those amendments applied only in relation to an application for a visa made on or after 1 July 2013. The intention is that the same pool and pass mark as that which applied at the time of application for the visa, should continue to apply to outstanding visa applications.

8. Consultation was undertaken before the instrument was made with the Department of Jobs and Small Business, which manages the SkillSelect system.

9. The Office of Best Practice Regulation (OBPR) has advised that a Regulatory Impact Statement is not required (OBPR Reference 23746).

10. Under section 10 of the Legislation (Exemptions and Other Matters) Regulation 2015, the instrument is exempt from disallowance and therefore a Statement of Compatibility with Human Rights is not required.

11. The instrument commences on 1 July 2018.

@MikeYanbu to cut short, 65 pts is now the minimum.

Anne2018 · June 2018

@cucci Hi! yep kelangan magsubmit muna and pay before you can attach documents eh.

Anne2018 · June 2018

@RheaMARN1171933 Oh really? I shall do that then. Thanks for the tip!

RheaMARN1171933 · June 2018

@Anne2018 yes, that’s fine. Have done it a few times for my clients.

michel_75 · June 2018

archdreamchaser · June 2018

milktea13 · June 2018

odwight · July 2018

Hi Guys,

Just receive my assessment from vetasses for points recognition.
Im a Degree Graduate of ComSci pero they awarded it as Diploma although
ni recognize din nila yung 2 years course and Associate.

Understand once i submit my application, i can only claim 10 pts dito kasi nga Diploma ang na recognize nila.

For the 2 year na Associate course - pwede din ba ako mag claim dito?
> A diploma or trade qualification completed in Australia 10
> An award or qualification recognised by the relevant assessing authority for your nominated skilled occupation. 10

++++++++++++++++++++

1. Associate in Computer Technology awarded in 2002 by XXXX , Metro Manila, The Philippines
2. Bachelor of Science in Computer Science awarded in 2004 by XXXX, The Philippines

Qualification 1 is recognised by VETASSESS for the purpose of awarding points for qualifications under the General Skilled Migration points test as comparable to the educational level of an AQF Certificate IV.

Qualification 2 is recognised by VETASSESS for the purpose of awarding points for qualifications under the General Skilled Migration points test as comparable to the educational level of an AQF Diploma.

Cheers!

Hi po. Paano po ginawa nyo sa visa payment? Kulang kasi credit limit namin. Cash payment ba sa bank ung kulang or pwedeng ipasok lahat sa credit card? Thanks po

Anne2018 · July 2018

@milktea13 Try asking your bank baka pede increase nila credit limit nyo.

milktea13 · July 2018

@Anne2018 thank you

Mia · July 2018

@milktea13 some banks would allow you to bypass the limit by topping up the credit card (positive balance).. ask mo kung pwede

champie08 · July 2018

good day po, verify ko lng po, per ANZCO search, close n ung ANZCODE ko for 189 and 190, un po ba is dahil end of fiscal year last week? and magopen naman na sya ulet this July?

cyborg5 · July 2018

pag ka intindi ko sa mga strategy discussion dito sa forum, lodge 1 eoi for 189, lodge 1 for 190 for each state. pwede ba more than 1 for 189 ? or more than 1 for each state for 190? para more chances of winning? Or bawal
