Hi
I have lodged an EOI on the same date as Hugh too. Have been stuck with this Visa anxiety and just doing nothing else at the moment other than checking details and doing my research into how likely I am to get the Invitation.
From what I have seen , The competition is probably in its all time low compared to the other months and other rounds as there's probably not much people waiting and whoever has gained more than 60 points have probably been invited because the May20th Invitation round invited around a 100 less applicants than their targeted Invitation giveaway number. So that could mean that we would not face any problems with earlier EOI's .
Moreover, since there has been a number of occupations which have reached their ceiling, the competition from those popular occupations will not be considered for the next two rounds, until July 2013.
I am just speculating on this one here. I still have fingers crossed and we'll know our results soon.
Care to check back whoever applied in may guys!
All the best to everyone out here.!
