@hopefullyoz there you go, a positive news for all of us!! badly needed it this time.. by the way, I noticed you updated your points to 80 now.. I was actually following your case in Immitracker because we are of the same points before and we almost had the same EOI submission dates.

@angela10 no. Nag lodge na ako nag EOI. You won't be invited unless you lodge an EOI. Tapos, ira-rank yung mga nag lodge based on their points. The higher the points, the more chance that you'll get invited.
Pero diba marami kang kapareha ng points. In that case, uunahing i-invite yung earlier ang EOI date of effect.
Right now, I'm just happy na unti-unti nang nai-invite na ang mga higher pointers. This means that those with lower points like me will have a higher chance of getting invited.

@hopefullyoz ahhHh i see. Pataasan then first come first serve. So for example ang minimum na nainvite is 80 then 85 ka, ibig sabhin dapat nainvite ka din? Then sa mga nainvite, normally ilanh percent dun yung naaapprove? Hehe.

@angela10 focus for now to raise your points as much as you can.. Getting approved once we have lodged our visa application should be the least we have to worry about.. at this time, an Accountant getting invited is a blessing close to being a miracle... so everytime I see updates for Accountants getting invited, nabubuhayan po ako ng pag-asa.. sometimes, I just have to make fun of the thought na pati ba naman sa migration, napaka-competitive talaga ng Accountants.

@angela10 you can check it here in the link provided by hopefullyoz - this is for those invited in the July 11 round.
I refer also to ISCAH's estimates for their predictions on when you can get an invite.
https://www.iscah.com/news-page/ You can find also on their page quick links for the changes in the points system effective Nov 2019..

Hello po sa lahat, Ask lang po sana ako ng advise sa may experience dito if may kagaya ako, graduate po ako ng Accountancy dito Pinas and fully decided na po akong kumuha na nang student visa as a path muna, Sa tingin nyo po ba wise na desisyon yung kumuha ulit ako ng Bachelor's degree ng Accounting sa Australia para makakuha ko na din ng CPA Australia program? base kasi sa research ko mas mura sya compared sa Master's? pero wise po ba na plan yun? thank you po in advance sa sasagot.

@hopefullyoz napansin ko lang pala bigla on the link below, ang cut-off for 85 pointers nung Mar 10 rounds was 10/04/2019 (which is possibly typo - could be 10/03/2019) as against 14/12/2018 last invitation round, July 11th.. bakit umurong? nung una ang napansin ko lang na mas earlier na ang cut-off date Internal Auditor.. hopefully they correct it soon, which means magiging current na ang 85 pointers.. and up next na kayong 80 pointers..

@Dionji as much as possible iwasan ang student pathway for accountants. sobrang taas ng points needed to get an invitation. if you are decided, have you checked your points after you graduate? aabot na ba ng minimum points which is 85 as of current for 189 and alam ko may mga other requirements na din if you go state-sponsored which is local accounting experience. same lang ang tuition ng bachelor at master nung time ko. you can still fullfill the foundation requirements for the cpa program kahit master's kunin mo or gamitin mo iyong overseas degree mo just have it assessed.

> Yes po nagpa assess na ako sabi pag pinagcombine ung license and school ko equivalent sya sa bachelors degree sa au. Pag ganun po counted lng ung experience na cpa na ako?
If that’s the case, your skilled work experience starts after you acquired your license.
