I am not expecting 189 as it is highly competitive nowadays, pero sobrang graceful ng Lord nagulat ako sa golden email ngayong umaga.....
Sa lahat po ng nainvite ngayong araw congratz po, sa mga nag aantay maging faithful lang po tayo at dadating din ang araw na iloloob po ng Lord.
Ilang taon din tong pag aantay ko bago to dumating

Sana yung ibang occupations naman sa susunod na rounds. Ang nangyayari kasi parang occupation-based na yung criteria, not points-based. There are over 600+ occupations sa list nila. If they're going to revolve around 10-20 occupations lang, paano naman yung iba?
Nakakafrustrate lang isipin minsan, pero at the end of the day, wala naman akong magagawa about it. Nevertheless, congrats sa mga na-invite!!!

skills assessment yang sinasabi mo di ba? English test lang ang valid for 3yrs kahit 2yrs lang yung nasa certificate.
and anong assessing body yan, VETASSES, ACS, EA? depende kasi dun ano yung validity nila.
kung expired na yan based on that at invited ka, in general, di ko alam pano mag proceed. sorry.
kasi sa case ko personally, i am very much aware of the expiry/validity of my documents. i avoid complications as much as i can.
pinaka maganda is consult po kayo sa agent.
DIY all the way. Avoid preachy, know-it-all, and unscrupulous agents AT ALL COSTS!

hindi ko talaga alam ang sagot, sorry.
kasi nung na-expire skills ng partner ko, nag suspend ako agad ng EOI ko. kasi nga ayoko magkaron ng mga komplikasyon na ganyan, lalo't DIY lang kame all the way. wala kaming privilege to consult with an agent.

hello po. ask ko lang po, okay lang po kaya na hindi ko nilagay sa EOI yung mga past work history ko na di ako nagclaim ng points at di assessed ng Engineers Australia?
Tapos sa form 80 ko na lang po ilalagay yung detailed na work history ko?
Joined: Mar 11, 2022
May nakaexperience na po ba dito na hindi nagdeclare ng relevant work experience sa EOI—
And then during visa lodging, sinama nyo pa po ba yung mga undeclared work expi sa documents na inupload nyo po? Or only the ones declared in your EOI?
Sana po may makasagot

Salamat Sir @bartowski syempre naalala kita dito sa forum. Mga tambay ng PTE thread dati haha. Tiwala lang Sir susunod na din kayo. Ako 5 years ko rin hinintay ito kasi 2017 palang nagpeprepare na ko ng documents kaso fresh grad pa ko nun wala pa experience kaya hiatus muna 2-3 years dito sa forum at nagfocus mag-gain ng 3 years work experience sa Pinas kaso biglang nagpandemic kaya muntikan na lumipat ng plano at mag-ayos sa Canada haha. May reason yung mga nangyayari satin Sir. To be honest, di na ko umasa sa 189 invitation kundi sa 491 at 190 na lang pero ibinigay kaya sobrang thankful

Hi, I just realized na 5 EOIs ko (out of 8) were invited for Subclass 189. When is the perfect time para i-withdraw yung mga invited EOIs na di magagamit?
After visa lodgement? I am currently gathering funds for the visa.
Kung pwede lang transferrable yung invitation. Huhu.

LOL bakit ang dami mong EOI for 189? Madaming magagalit sayo hahahhahaha
Wala ka naman na magagawa since they're locked, so make sure nalang na i-withdraw mo sila after 60 days. Withdraw mo na din now na yung 3 out of 8 na hindi na-invite.

Why do you have 5 EOIs for one subclass? Anong pinagkaiba-iba nila?
Also, can someone confirm if withdrawn/unused invitations are being carried over? Ang daming nagsasabi kasi na hindi na daw siya naccarry-over, so ang meaning nagiging wasted invitations na talaga sila.

Baka po sa bawat eoi 190/491 submitted ay may kasamang 189 din siya dun kaya nung naginvi rounds sa 189 lahat ng eoi niya na may 189 nainvite sya.
Sinabihan ko ung isa kong kakilala na gumawa ng ganun na iseparate niya ung 189 eoi niya at wag idagdag un sa mga 190/491 submissions

DIY all the way. Avoid preachy, know-it-all, and unscrupulous agents AT ALL COSTS!
