HI thanks for your help. I'm assuming you can only request one state?

Hi I wondered if anyone could help. I'm a social worker in the uk looking to emigrate. Currently in the process of my skills assessment. Until now we had been clear that we would apply for a 189 visa, however I wondered if someone could answer a few questions for me re the 190 can i I apply for both on the same eoi? If so, can I request which state I'd like to be nominated by? Or do I not get the choice? As I don't really want to go to SA or north QLd. Also if I turned down a state I didn't want to go to am I still able to stay on the list for 189. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks! I didn't realise that it would make a difference re amount of points I had as long as it was over 60

I do plan to have a qualifications assessment but just wasn't sure about the employment skills assessment! It notes it's optional but doesn't say anywhere how many, if any points it would give me. I have 9 years experience split between child protection and mental health with some supervisory experience Thanks

Application for 189 visa ( will also add my partner and 2 young children. Hi I wonder if anyone can help? I'm a social worker with 9 years exp in the uk. I'm about to apply to the aasw to have my skills assessed, however do I need my qualifications assessed or do I also need the skilled employment assessment? And if so how many additional points would this give me? I have 60 points: 25 for age 15 for my degree 20 for 8-10 years exp the aasw have noted they will deem me competent in English with proof of uk secondary education and degree. Many advice would be appreciated, thanks tracy
