@dv0712 pinakamabilis na magrant ay yung applicants na ang occupation ay related sa healthcare. but the most important thing is mainvite muna kahit anong visa pa yan (PR or temporary). sa ielts mo naman, sa band 6 ka papasok. you need to get at least band 7 on each score to qualify for band 7. aim to get higher at least band 8 kung kaya or maybe try PTE
