Mine took only 3 days ! only 3 days and I am serious. Submitted date: 6/12/2013 Positive assessed result: 9/12/2013 for 261313

I'd say you get invited on next round. though still depends on other 75+ pointers.

Hi guys, So my CO was allocated yesterday. She emailed me and asked me to email them police certificates, however I have already uploaded them on my immi account. It sounds a bit odd, what do you think guys? She can't see the uploaded documents or what? Cheers

I lodged my application for 189 on 23/Oct/2015 and yesterday on 10/Nov/2015, my case officer emailed me and asked me for more documents. So basically, it took 17 days for case officer allocation in my case though.

Invitation round for 6 November was today and is already done!

Hey Guys, have you ever been asked to upload your CV as a supporting document? Do I need to do that as I haven't assigned a CO yet.

What he tries to say is that if 60 pointers would be invited in November rounds, the hope for getting invitation for 60 pointers throughout the next year would be increased. I actually agree with him, however we never know how many 65+ pointers might apply!

Thanks for this explanation. Just a random question, I lodged my application on 23/Oct/2015 however my ACS assessment expires on 9/Dec/2015. Just wondering if this expiry date has any negative impact on my visa grant? I mean I'm worried that maybe the process of visa grant would take longer than ACS assessment expiry date.

Hi guys, So today the result of 23 Oct round has been published on : http://www.border.gov.au/WorkinginAustralia/Pages/SkillSelect-23-October-2015-Round-Results.aspx As you can see, the cut-off DOE for 2613xx is 22/Oct/2015 with 65 points. What it means is that all 65 pointers have been cleared (except 23/Oct) since last invitation round and for the next round, it is very likely that 60 pointers get invited on November rounds. It is hard to say how many invitations could be sent though as everything depends on the number of 65+ pointers. However I think those 60 pointers with DOE on May have a good chance for invitation.

I think with the current pace, it takes at least 4-6 months to get invitation for a recent 261313 - 60 pointer; even longer...

A random question, did you manage to upload your cv? Am I supposed to do so?

My application is for 189 as well! I was not asked for payslip though!

I live in Australia at the moment , I came to Australia as student and graduated last year. Then got my 189 invitation on 23 October and lodged it with all documents except medical. I will probably book medical test tomorrow Anyway, as of now, this is my third oz visa and I have been always treated very well by case officers; they always asked me to send any related documents through email. So be optimistic, you'll be fine! Also I am just wondering why you want to upload your work payslips! It sounds a bit odd, because you only need to upload your assessed work experience done by related Australian Organization. For instance, ACS is in charge of assessing work experience for IT applicants. I have never seen someone upload payslips!

Dom't worry about it at all. After your case officer is assigned, he would contact you via email and ask you to send them any related documents. You are totally fine now.On top of that, case officers are usually flexible people and help you out if they need any more documents.

Looks promising! Thanks.

I had the same issue! Do not worry about that at all, your EOI date of effect is 08/09 for sure. In fact, DOE on your landing page is the correct one. I had exact issue 2 weeks ago and after I got invitation, I found that the generated PDF shows incorrect DOE.

Thanks Capitan for your reply, May I ask what do you mean by "HR applicants"? P.S. I am living in Australia at the moment and for my previous visa (Graduate visa), I did upload form 80 and 1221 around 1.5 years ago. I know those should be updated forms though

Hi guys, I got my invitation on 23 October and I need to know if I should to fill out form 80 and 1221 for subclass 189. The thing is that one of my friends was asked to upload form 80 and 1221 by his case officer. However, another friend of mine told me that his case officer didn't ask him for such forms. What do you think guys? Should i wait for my case officer or it's better for me to fill them out and upload them in advance?

You are hilarious Capitan

Finally got the invitation 2 minutes ago !!!!! 261313 , 65 points, DOE 28/09/2015

Good luck to everyone! hope you guys get invitation today :)Peace and luck.

I think you are right! Thank you for your useful information.

Actually I've got no work experience added to my EOI. And yes, points have not changed! Everything looks normal.

So DOE has been amended for no reason? this is awkward !!!

Hi Capitan, Just noticed something odd on my EOI page. Date of effect in front of EOI for 189 is 28/09/2015, however when I click on "view points breakdown" ,DOE is 13/10/2015. my points has not changed and didn't reach any sort of milestone. What do you think? which DOE is correct? P.S. Last week when I checked "view points breakdown", it was as the same as the other on EOI.
