@songhyeky0 dasal lang bro!. Buti nga nasa visa application kana, ako slowly but surely lang process kaya I keep reading dito sa forum for the updates and personal experience in every stage ng co-engineers/professionals. Yes nasa PMSOL tayo but let us trust the process, mahalaga open border na ang AU mas madami ng 189/190/491 et al ang pwedeng mabigyan.

May question lang po ako regarding sa situation namin. Nung Monday, lumabas yung invitation namin for Visa 491 from RDA Illawarra, so nag lodge na kami waiting na lang ng medical and biometrics. In this application, yung partner ko yung main applicant.
Then kagabi, nakarecieve kami ng pre-invite for 190 from NSW. This time, ako naman main applicant.
Ang question ko po is: may nakaranas na ba ng ganitong situation, and if yes, anong ginawa nyo?
Thank you.

Baka kasi yung nominating state at RDA magkaiba. In our case, yung 491 is RDA Illawarra and 190 is NSW State.

James 1:5-6
(New International Version)
5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.
..
Testimony: God is always one step ahead.
