General Skilled Immigration Visa - Step By Step Process

RheaMARN1171933 · November 2019

If you have been invited for 189 already and have applied for it then just wait for a decision. It doesn’t make sense to go a step backward. You will get there you just need to be patient. 189 visa subclass is like gold these days.

@RheaMARN1171933 Hi, meron bang caveat or magiging issue kapag nag submit ako ng EOI as "single"? And let's say na-grant yung visa ko, tapos mag papakasal ako after 6 mos, may issue ba yun? Salamat

You just have to update your eoi once you’re married

Good Day Sir/Mam any Insights will be very much appreciated.

I recently lodged my EOI for visa 189 all DIY. To take advantage of the nov 16 additional 10pts for single applicants to claim 80pts.
I stated my relationship status as "never married" which is true but my partner and I are expecting our 1st child this Jan 2020 and now applying for marriage license. We are planning to get civil wed after the ITA(if fortunate) to not affect the claimed points. Ive read that it is more practical to include her in the Initial application as dpendent.
Would this affect my visa application?
Is it better to get married after the ITA or Visa grant?
Can I bring my partner/child along with me even though I initially stated that I am never married?
If i change the nver married status to engaged status would my DOE be queued again at the bottom list?
Thank you very much

Based on what you mentioned, you’ve just lodged your eoi pa Lang. If your status has changed and you are married then you need to update your eoi. If it’s just married licence then there’s nothing to update.

hello, its been a long time I haven't logged in and hindi na ako updated sa new rule to immigrate in AU. May nabasa ako na may 10 points ang single - You are single or your partner is an Australian citizen or permanent resident" kaso not sure lang how to claim points for single. As in single ba to or single but in a relationship with an AU citizen or PR. Medyo naconfuse lang. In my case I am single but not in a relationship to any Australian citizen or PR. May 10 points ba ako?

Also madali bang ma-invite if my points is 65-70? Parang pansin ko kasi un mga naiinvite, ang mga points is nasa 75-85. Thank you.

if hndi sila part ng eoi and ITA, then no. but you can bring them later on as partner visa and dependent child visa which is costly and long processing time afaik

-yes its practical to include them if gsto mo tlga sila isama later on, it will save you time and money. though u may lose 10 points as single. you may claim for other things like increasing your english test score or skilled partner/partner's english test score

yes DOE changes for any updates done on your eoi.

thanks alot sa reply sir.
Na confuse kasi ako while making EOI. Engaged status is under the "single" drop down list. Ma claim ko padin kaya ang single points ko if i change it to engaged (from nver married) ayoko lang galawin baka mabago DOE ko. 80 kasi cut off limit ng occupation ko kaya Im considering all my options.
Another question sir if I apply for both 190 and 189 and nauna mg ITA ang 190 most likely ba hindi na mg bibigay ng ITA for 189? thank you Sir.

And nakita ko din etong SS from other thread.

Hello everyone, I’m a silent reader in this forum and DIY applicant. But since I have not found any thread about creating a multiple or single EOI, I hope someone could help me answer and understand my concerns.

So in a scenario wherein I wanted to submit an EOI for visa 189, 190(any) and 491(any):

With multiple EOI:__
If for example EOI 1: for 189; EOI 2: for 190; EOI 3: for 491
1.) We can create as many EOI with the same email address and data, just different visa types, right?
2.) Assuming you have received an ITA in the following cases:
a.) If assuming you have received an ITA for EOI 2, will this EOI be close for future invite from another states?
b.) Since you have another EOIs, EOI 1 and 3 are still open for an invite, right? Even though your data in all EOI are the same.
c.) Then months after while you are processing for EOI 2 requirements, you received an ITA for EOI 1 and since EOI 1 has better benefits than EOI 2 ITA (assuming no issues and everything is smooth), you can withdraw EOI 2 and go for EOI 1. Will it cause any issues with the DHA? If ever visa 190 is already granted or awaiting for grant.

With single EOI for all visa types:
1.) If assuming you have received an ITA for visa 190 (NSW), will the DHA remove your entry for other visa types (189 and 491) in their list for future invitation?
2.) If #1 is YES, you won’t get the chance to receive an invite for 189 anymore?
3.) With my understanding in the screenshot below from the DHA, you can receive 2 invitations with single EOI which means the answer for #1&2 is NO, right?

Another thing, hehhehe sorry I have so many concerns.
1.) Will there be no issues in applying for any states in visa 190 and 491, knowing that most states require to have an employment offer especially for 491? And I don’t have any job offer yet.
2.) Currently, I submitted a single EOI for visa 189 (85 pts), 190 (any) (90 pts) and 491 (any) (100pts) for an Accountant. But the chances is very unpredictable and since I am just DIY, I’m worried if I did the right thing because I badly wanted to move to AU ASAP, just like most of us here and hoping to get any chance. But I am also considering on creating a multiple EOI instead to be safe in case the answer for my concern in #1 and 2 in the “with single EOI...” above is YES.
Shall I go for the multiple EOI or stick to my current single EOI for all visa types? I hope someone could give me the best advice please.

Thank you.

Question po about the additional 10 points po for singles. Applicable po ba sya sa widows? Pwede ba mag claim ng 10 points?

alam ko independent sila sa isat isa, you can get ITA from both. then you chose which to pursue, at courtesy n lng to inform DHA na u will decline sa isa, for other applicant to get a slot if possible pa..
all the best to you!

@pinoyAussie kung same EOI yung 189 at 190, once makareceive ng ITA malocked na agad ito. pwede mong gawin is to create 2 separate EOIs tapos withdraw mo na lang yung isa after makareceive ng ITA yung isa.

catherine · November 2019

Hello po, I just received my ITA for Visa 190 SA yesterday. May tanong lang po ako regarding sa pag fill up dun the immi account. May question kasi dun sa spouse ko about English lang if he has taken.. answer is No, follow up question is if have Functional English.. I answered Yes since he finished bachelor degree outside Australia. Tanong ko po if ano evidence need to submit for Functional english? Ok po ba yung diploma and TOR? or do i still need to seek a certificate from his school that medium of teaching is in English? Thank you po, sana matulungan nyo ako masagot.

Captain_A · November 2019

@catherine said:

diploma and TOR, certificate from his school that medium of teaching is in English
alam ko these 3 are sufficient na for proof of functional english. ito submit ko for my wife (visa 189, we're not claiming any extra points from spouse/partner)

Thanks for the advice po. Yes, I have decided to wait it out. It's going to be long (especially na nagexpire na halos lahat ng documents ko) and will have to acquire them again. I called DHA and was advised to wait for a CO contact before getting such documents baka daw kasi ma-expire lang ulit.

Hi, i am new dito sa site na to, just wanted to ask, ano ba ang kailangan unahin? Skills assessment or ielts exam? If skills assessment, paano ako magpapaasses, is there any website to contact/email?

cucci · December 2019

@No_ri_09 Ano po ba ang occupation ninyo? Some skills assessment bodies require some level of English proficiency as part of the assessment process.

NickoDG · December 2019

Hello po. Mas mabilis po ba ang processing ng visa 189 compared to 190?

Question Regarding 190:

After ka maigyan ng invitation to apply, you have 14 days to submit an application. May kailangan na bang iprovide na evidence or requirements sa 14 days na period na to?

Cathhhrina · December 2019

Hello po, question lang po. Ano po meaning nito?

*Qualifications and experience must be directly linked to another Engineering occupation listed on TSOL.
**Q: Ano po ibig sabihin nito na linked to another Engg Occupation? Actually nagpa-assess po me as Telco Engineer pero po was assessed as Engg Technologist.. Tama po ba na ang linked Engg Occupation ko po is Telecomms Engineer?

Pahelp lang po. Thanks in advance
