Naka ilang attempts ka na sa PTE? May mga naiinvite pa rin naman na proficient yung PTE, mas malaki nga lang yung chance if superior. For IT, 190/491/189 ang pwede. Ilang months na ba since you submitted EOI?
Kung patient ka pa at may extra funds, pwede ka mag student visa. Pero risky na nun depending on so many factors para makapag PR later on.

Ang alala ko, EOI and ROI sa vic. Kelangan mo ng EOI number para makapag submit ng ROI, and para mainvite. Parang bagong info yang after invitation pa yung ROI. Saan mo nabasa?

Oo need mong mag submit din ng ROI sa Vic at tsaka sa South Australia di ako sure. And sa NSW naman need na exclusive EOI for NSW only ayaw nya yung may option na ibang states. Medyo may pagka possessive si NSW haha

Sa huli kong basa, onshore lang ang required ng ROI para sa SA.
As for EOI, yung tatlong states na inapplyan ko, pinag hiwalay ko sila ng EOI yun kasi yung lagi kong nababasa dati. dahil pala yun kay nsw haha.
Nominated Skill: 312111
Target Visa: Subclass 190-OFFSHORE
Target State: VIC/WA/NSW(got NSW invite)
2016-2019 Always watching vids for Student pathway in Canada, Germany, New Zealand and Australia but lost interest.
2022 Started working in Singapore, lost hope in SG PR. Got interested in Canada/Australia again.
2023 April: Started researching About Australia. At first, I saw student pathway but then stumbled to some youtube video explaining permanent residence can be applied offshore(DIY)
2023 Oct 30: Started Collecting Documents. This took us so long because we are hesitating and overthinking about making contact to our previous employers. We thought we should just do a statutory declaration but fortunately we talked to our friends who are also planning their migration and helped us understand that its easy to request for it.
2024 Jan 16: Husband's Vetassess Lodging
2024 Feb 2: Husband's Vetassess Priority processing
2024 Feb 6: Husband's Vetassess Positive Result
2024 July 2: PTE exam (Husband-Competent, Mine-Proficient). Huge month gap because we got busy with office works and some other personal errands.
2024 July 3: Husband Submitted EOI for Visa 190 VIC/NSW/WA (65)
(Age:30; Qualifications:15; XP Offshore:10; English:0; Partner:5; State:5)
2024 July : I delayed getting my Vetasses in the hopes of saving the fee if my husband got the invite even with low eoi score(who am I kidding?). Contunued collecting SoS from my past companies cause we realized that 10 points for skilled partner is a huge difference. Initially, I was looking to just submit with only 1 work experience cause my other companies are a bit hassle to deal with but thank God I went throught all the stress and collected them all(pokemon?)
2024 Sep 3: Submitted My Vetassess
2024 Sep 4: Vetassess Priority approval- then paid the same day.
2024 Sep 8: Vetassess Positive Result-5.9 years (considered as high work experience)

2024 Dec 20: Withdrawn other EOIs. No more budget if ever we get an invite from our 1st choice of State.
2024 Dec 23: Received Skillselect email, eoi suspended, Lodged status.
