Parang May ata ang estimate if nagsubmit ka ng Feb11,2020. Next month na kayo. I think if ang pagitan nyo sa huling date na kinuha sa last round ay maliit lang, possible na next round bunot na kayo
Kasi last round til Oct2,2019 ang kinuha for 2613. Doe ko is Oct11,2019. Nabunot til Nov16,2019. So tiwala lang!! kaya yan! Claim it na!

Hi. Pasensya kung may nagtanong na. What’s next po after maglodge ng EOI? NSW state po. Wait lang ba ng pre-invite or may need pa gawin other than mag-antay? Saka kung gusto ko ba mag apply ng 491 Regional, need ko ba ng agent? Salamat po sa sasagot.

@goku_son share ko Lang, while waiting for your NSW 190 pre invite, Ensure that all documents are ready for upload kasi you’re only given 14days to lodge from the pre invite date. All the best!

Hello Guys, I'm very confused, can someone shed some light on my situation. I've already applied both 190 and 491 in SA.
1.) How do i know if I have EOI already? ( do I go back skillselect for the udpate?)
2.) If I have EOI - where can I apply to get the invite in SA?
Please your inputs are highly appreciated - Im DIY and I dont what to do next.

Hi!!!
Lodge an Expression of Interest (EOI) through SkillSelect - choose SA only and your state nominated visa subclass 190 or 491. Apply online for state nomination through Immigration SA. You'll need your EOI ID number. Track your nomination application at any time.

Andun yung occupation mo sa SA? Mag pasa ka dun ng application sa site ng SA. May mga states kasi na need mo magpasa ng application for nomination like SA, WA, and QLD

I think you can update your EOI po and change your passport number. I don't think it will change your Date of Effect.
