Hi @Bungo, many thanks for the reply and I found the upgraded comment on another users comments of what happened to them and wondered if this was standard practice, however clearly not. I forgot to mention in my original post that we applied for the 190 visa at the same time due to only having 55 points however have still not heard anything. Nick Hi @benthomas010, many thanks for the reply and whilst waiting for the 190 we are going to retake the test. NIck

Hi All We are hoping to emigrate on a 189 visa later this year and submitted our EOi 4 weeks ago. However, we only have 55 points and are yet to hear anything. I have looked at a few posts where it would seem points are upgraded to 60 although don't know if this is the same for all. We are looking to move to Perth using my wife's qualifications as a social worker which have been passed accordingly. We lost points due to my wife's English results being half a point down on the written test. So with the above in mind do we; a) Wait and see if they upgrade us to the required 60 points? b) re-take the English test? If we wait any idea how long? Thanks in advance Nick
