    You're only allowede 1 ROI for VIC as far as I know so you have to decide if you want 491 or 190.

    +1. Choose either 491 or 190 only. Bawal both kay VIC.

    Thanks a lot @era222 and @whimpee

    so possible po 2 separate EOIs for 491 and 190 as long as the other one is different state if one is for VIC.

    if in case i lodge EOI 190 for VIC and 491 for NSW.. and get granted for 491 NSW first.. can I keep the 190 ongoing ?

    once granted ang 491 merong 3 year ban sa pag apply ng other visas like 189 or 190.

    Yes you can keep the 190 ongoing. Di pa yan granted, invitation stage pa lang yan. So if na-invite ko for one EOI you can keep other EOIs active. Alam ko if you decide not to push thru, it won't be counted naman so others will get a chance.

    If NSW and VIC targets mo, you can lodge the ff:

    190 VIC OR 491 VIC (either one lang)
    190 NSW
    491 NSW

    NSW allows EOIs for both subclasses. VIC lang hindi. For other states, not sure lang.

Last updated ang site na yan nitong April 14, 2023 lang (check mo sa footer ng website, andun ang date). Sa pagkakaalam ko, May or June ang end of this FY/invitations, so baka kaya ganun?

    Actually yun nga rin pinagtataka ko, sa mga nakikita ko sa FB groups madami pang allocations for 190 and 491 at mukhang unlikely na talaga for 189..
    tapos may iba na bigla nalang maiinvite.. although hindi sila offshore and ICT, nakakapagtaka lang kung ano yung criteria..
    Waiting parin ako sa susunod na invite rounds, pag wala siguro ng May maglodge na ulit ako ng new ACS assessment.. bukod sa expiring ACS problem ko din yung age ko kase patawid na sa susunod na bracket in coming months..

    Hello, anyone here under ICT na naglodge ng January for VIC and NSW? May nakareceive na ba ng pre invite? parang bigla kasing dumalang yung pre invite nitong 2023..
    For visa 189/190/491
    my points are as follows 80/85/95.. ma-eexpire narin yung ACS ko this July..

    According sa DHA stats, parang last December ang latest round for 189: https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/working-in-australia/skillselect/invitation-rounds. Last updated ang site na yan nitong April 14, 2023 lang (check mo sa footer ng website, andun ang date). Sa pagkakaalam ko, May or June ang end of this FY/invitations, so baka kaya ganun? Although may nabasa ako sa FB group na marami pang natitirang allocations for 190/491 eh.

    Actually yun nga rin pinagtataka ko, sa mga nakikita ko sa FB groups madami pang allocations for 190 and 491 at mukhang unlikely na talaga for 189..
    tapos may iba na bigla nalang maiinvite.. although hindi sila offshore and ICT, nakakapagtaka lang kung ano yung criteria..
    Waiting parin ako sa susunod na invite rounds, pag wala siguro ng May maglodge na ulit ako ng new ACS assessment.. bukod sa expiring ACS problem ko din yung age ko kase patawid na sa susunod na bracket in coming months..

    Anong occupation mo? Baka pwede ka sa 491 direct application ni NSW (Pathway 1 Stream B), kung sakali: https://www.nsw.gov.au/visas-and-migration/skilled-visas/skilled-work-regional-visa-subclass-491. Sayang naman if mabawasan ng points.

    ICT business analyst ako.. may difference ba itong 491 pathway 1 stream B sa regular 491 na fnfile sa EOI?

    Hello. Naka kuha po ako ng pre-invite nung 24 Jan NSW 190 - ICT Support Engr 75+5 pts po sa akin.
    13 Jan po ako nag create ng EOI.

    Madami pa allocation si VIC and NSW pero sana soon makakuha na kayo ng pre-invite kasi parehas tayo na pa-next age bracket at mababawasan points.

    Doon po sa 491 Pathway 1 Stream B may mga nag close na RDA kasi puno na yun allocations nila pero tignan niyo nalang sa iba pa.

    Bridging visa is given pag lodged na yung visa (dapat nasa Aus ka). It takes effect pag nag expire na yung current visa mo.

    Onshore applicant ka ba?

    If offshore ka, the 190 visa will be your visa. Ang bridging visa is an interim visa for when a valid visa expires and you need a temporary visa muna to legally stay in Australia, while you process another visa. Since active ang 190 visa mo pagka-grant sayo, yun ang visa mo.

    Hello po, may tanong po ako. Once po ma invite kn ng state (190 visa po) automatic po b nka bridging visa kn nun? O kelangan mo muna mag submit ng mga kailangan nila bago k nila sbihan n nka bridging kn? Salamat

    Bridging visa is given pag lodged na yung visa (dapat nasa Aus ka). It takes effect pag nag expire na yung current visa mo.

    Anong visa mo now? ganito mangyayari dyan:

    1. Once lodged, mabibigyan ka ng bridging visa pero di pa to active kasi may visa ka pa now
    2. Once na mag expire na visa mo, dun maaactivate bridging visa. Then antay ka ng grant

    Kung ma grant 190 mo bago mag expire current visa mo then di ka dadaan sa bridging at all.
