Seems like a lot of applications have been skipped from October 2022—super arbitrary na ng timeline. I lodged February and saw a few early Feb lodgements get granted (non-priority occupations, though I forget anong specific subclass and occupation, sorry 😅). Have not seen a lot of 190 grants for NSW din. Hoping it improves this August!

I lived in the UAE and Qatar for the last 10 years. Now i just lodged my EOI sa mga states for 190 nomination. Hoping to get invited sa first round when states open this Aug-Sep.
Can i process my PCC from both countries kahit wala pa akong invitation? O dapat mainvite muna bago ko simulang kumuha ng PCC. Kailan ba kailangan yun, to be submitted upon visa lodging ba un, o after visa lodging kapag may CO contact? Thanks po.

Up to you if gusto mong iinclude na UPON visa lodgement, or if magwait ka for CO contact. Only difference is if the former, you can possibly get direct grant (not guaranteed of course) and with the latter, pagkasubmit mo after CO contact magwwait ka ulit.
I would wait until at least may invite na ako. Ako I got mine the same time I applied for state nomination. Valid lang yang PCC for 12 months so sayang din if magexpire.
