@jomar011888 yes please consider as soon as possible Kung kya Ng Budget at Ng time mo. Di natin alam Ang new rules by July 1. Di natin alam Kung magtataas sila bg cut off points like llast year ginawa nilang 65 from 60 points, di din natin sure Kung anjan pa din occupations, minsan bigla na lng nilang babaguhin. Kayang kya mo na mag superior habang nasa momentum ka pa. Pasensya namilit! Hahaha! Aabangan ko superior mo sa PTE!

Hello, Rhea. Yes I already lodged my EOI last month for Visa 489. Unfortunately the regions where EEs are accepted are not open for application. Actually, 489 is not an ideal option for me since my family lives in Sydney metro, but I still put in an EOI just to see where it goes. I have 65 points now for visa 189 but not getting an invite so far. I finished my CCL exam this month so hopefully that helps.

Hi guys! I'm new here sa forum and a silent reader too.
I have a few quesions po regarding applying for 190 visa in NSW..
First, ang PR points po ba, the higher points you have the more chances na maiinvite ka or does it mean mas mapapabilis lang yung pagreceive ng invitation mo?
Second po, I have a defacto partner, kakatapos lang namin mag PTE pero di kami umabot sa superior, so 10 points lang nakuha namin both for english. Web developer ako and Architectural draftsperson sya. Ang dilemma namin kasi kung sino ang magiging primary applicant, sa pagcalculate namin ng PR points pareho kaming 70 ang total. Would it be practical if isa lang samin ang mag retake ng PTE based on kung sino ang mas higher ang chance mainvite? Para umabot ng 80 points ang primary applicant. Ako kasi as per checking yung NSW priority skilled occupation list - https://www.industry.nsw.gov.au/live-and-work-in-nsw/visas-and-immigration/nsw-skilled-occupations-list/nsw-190-priority-skilled-occupation-list naka Medium and Web developer and naka Low lang ang Architectural draftsperson.
So gusto lang po sana namin ask if ano dapat ang diskarte? Thank you so much and good luck to everyone!!

If you occupation are open in NSW, u can try making an EOI for both of you. Ang trent ng NSW ay pinipili ang mga matataas na points. But sometimes there are exception. If you or your husband fall on the occupation na onti lang ang applicant, may possibility na mapili ka kahit minimum lang ang points mo. You can never tell.... Kaya try mo lang ng itry..
So while waiting. Try ng isa sa inyo na magpataas ng occupation. Provided na ung occupation niya is laging open ha. Sayang naman kung na superior tapos biglang nagclose ung occupation.

I'm not really sure about this setup. But part of the moral obligations na pinipirman ng migrant is to work and stay with the nominating state for 2 years. Take note, NSW do not issue release letters. You can ask for other opinions na tlagang naranasan ang ganitong situation. (Did they get citizenship even doing this?).... Even if your the dependant sa application, once you were granted, PR kana.. wala ng dependant or main.so maybe think about it...
