  Hi guys, is it ok mag-create ng multiple EOIs for 190/491 (one EOI in each state)? I also have EOI for 189/190/491 (which has "Any States" as preferred location) and 190/491 for NSW, VIC, QLD, SA, ACT & WA. I heard na mas prefer ng state na specific sa EOI yung state nila, I wonder kung may implication ba by doing this? I just want to expand my chances and aim to get invited max Q1 2023. Thank you

  Ma'am..Ganito din po sana gagawin ko para ma expand yung chances if sakali..tanong ko po sana if nag pasa kana ng setup na ganito.

  Sa EOI scores mo na perfect na 95 pts., malaki pagasa. And maganda pa ang DOE mo. Pag itong july na invite ay selected pa rin na occupations ang iniinvite nila sa au, kung related lang sa covid, dapat, gumawa na kayo ng EOI sa 491. Kasi bumaba pa ang Age points mo. Sana di pa mabawasan ang points mo dahil sa age. Malapit na magexpire ang EA mo.

  tanong ko lang, kailan magstop ang expiration ng mga documents? kapag official invite from DHA or kahit pre-invite pa lang?
  pano kapag nakareceived ka ng pre-invite and na-isubmit mo na lahat ng documents pero may document ka na mageexpire the following month at hindi pa lumalabas yung result ng pre-invitation application mo?

  We can all just hope and pray. But i think the full effect maybe experienced around october onwards pa because of a summit this september wherein the new gov’t would layout the new changes on migration policies.

  Yung preferred state option, for 190 lang siya, walang ganung option for 189.

  hello po sa lahat,
  need ko lang advice kasi 1 hr ago naka receive ako ng 189 invitation pero this august 25, 2022 is flight ko na for Sydney,australia as visa 482.. if i-accept and ilodge ko ang 189 invitation now is di ba magkaproblema sa pag entry ko as 482? and also ang EOI ko na my invite is ma expire na this september 22, 2022.

  pero yun 189 na EOI ko wla ang NSW sa list, niremove ko last week lang nung nag release ang NSW news na dapat my separate EOI if mag apply ako NSW 190. so gumawa ako separate NSW 190 na eoi... ewan ko rin bakit niremove ko ang NSW sa 189 EOI ko , naisip ko lang kasi para sure ma invite sa NSW 190 is gawa nlang ako separate EOI talaga. question ko lang is if ever ma grant yun 189 ko in the future, pwede pa naman ako magstay sa Sydney at sa employer ko dba? xempre nakakahiya din sa employer if alis agad. cya nagbayad sa visa both sa amin ng dependent ko. hindi ko pa clinick yun apply visa sa eoi kasi nag ask muna ako advice dito, medyo nagpanic din ako now or cguru sa tuwa kasi very unexpected. ang pagkalaam ko ang 189 visa is i can work and live anywhere sa Australia.

  @gzabala sa pagkakaalam ko based on some research (please correct me if im wrong):

  1) you can still enter and work in Aus with the 482 visa and file for the 189. Once ma-grant si 189, it will supercede yung 482 mo, meaning yung 189 na yung visa in effect mo
  2) 189 does not care for state nomination, so yung pagtanggal mo sa NSW for EOI ng 189 ay walang effect
  3) you can file for 189 onshore
  4) this one im not sure, pero i believe you dont need to change employers once ma-grant yung 189 mo.

  Ayun lang, congrats! Please let us know yung points, DOE, and occupation mo for 189 since we're also anxiously waiting hahahah
