If your employment is related to your nominated occupation, then you should pick yes. For me, I only included the employment after 2016 in EOI and didn't mention about earlier employment in EOI. However, I mentioned all the employments while lodging visa. I was doing everything myself, so I had no idea about this issue previously. But, I think in EOI, there is a section where you can split the date of your employment and pick them as related and not related. Hope this helps.

Hello friends, I got an invitation for 189 visa today. I just came through some confusing information about the English test for a spouse. I have not claimed any points from my spouse. Also, she gave her English test 3 years ago which is already expired (she had 7 in each band). Also, she did her undergraduate in English medium. Does she still need to take English test? or Is it okay to apply with old IELTS test or a letter from university mentioning that course medium was in English? Thank you, Bish1989
