Need help: To proceed or to abort application

Hi guys...

Just need your inputs on my problem.
Nag try ako ng "point system calculator", and it seems like na I just got 55 wherein 60 is the minimum points to start our visa application. This is mainly caused by my age, as I am turning 33 this year therefore loosing precious 5 pts on my assessment. Retaking my IELTS again is 1 of my options now, but came to know about "state sponsorship" that would replenish me another 5 pts. if granted. Is there anyone here who can help or advise on this.....
Thanks alot.

    Unless you can turn back time, I suggest you do both retaking ielts and applying for state sponsorship, giving priority to the latter. Why? Ss application is free on most states and guarantees you instant invite. Downside is it takes time for the results to come out.

    @NSC - if you're done with all your skills assessment and ielts, the next step is to check which state can sponsor you based on your occupation..you have to check all states, kasi walang comprehensive list for that...

    pag may nakita kang state, then start your application asap..

    @NSC ano po trabaho nila? perhaps baka makahanap kayo ng employer kaagad wala nang points testing dun...or if money's not an issue, you can get there through student visa :)
