No news yet for me on either eo i Good luck to you too

I am a registered nurse (surgical ward) with 65 points and extra 5 for NSW state nomination. I am from the UK and am 40 in july so will lose 10 points I put in on Feb 22nd for my EOI for NSW and am yet to hear x good luck to us all xx

I am a registered nurse (surgical - no news yet!) looking at new TSS if not sponsored by time i am 40 in july Have met and spoken with HealthX agency about going rural and remote x How about you?

Hello Gordon. I had a similar unknown query last month. I kept my 189 running clicked on 190 and then registered a new eoi for new South Wales under 190. Hope that helps and good luck xx

Well done Yogi

Hello Sophie How are you getting on? Has anyone else heard from Nsw yet re 190 invitation with 65 points plus 5 for state sponsorship recently? I am a nurse x good luck all

I am a registered nurse (surgical) and put in my EOI for NSW on the 22nd of February with 65 points plus extra 5 making it 70 in total if nominated x

seriously only ask official MARA agents who are able to give you correct advice. I know it is expensive to live in Sydney so looking more rural for myself x

Log in with same EOI or create a new one??

Hello Sorry for asking but am confused! long week!!! I put in on 25th of January for my expression of interest for a 189 skilled independent visa. I had 65 points - I completed Pearsons Academic and got 90/90 in all 4 sections (20 points) then positive skills assessment for a surgical nurse (ANZSCO 254424) with a degree (15 points) then age 39 until mid july (25 points) and more than 3 but less than 5 years experience in the UK as a nurse (5 points) Having looked and considering my options - I now want to apply for a 190 NSW State sponsorship visa - my skill is on the priority skilled occupation list. So I would have 65 points plus 5 points for state nomination? totaling 70 points?? I wondered do I click on 190 on the immigration page then submit expression of interest on the skill select page there? eg apply for EOI on the 190 immi page? Or do I click on my original Expression of interest (for a 189) and change it to NSW state sponsored? Can I keep both open until I get an invite then cancel the one not invited for sooner? Many thanks - sorry long shift and not getting my head around it!!! Kind regards Saffy x

They forward info on or upload and share so other areas can see it. I have had friends say they all get there in the end! good luck xx

As far as I am aware you need to do English Exam for ANMAC - Academic English IELTS or Pearsons Academic. https://www.anmac.org.au/skilled-migration-services/full-skills-assessment I did Pearsons academic and got 90/90 for all 4 sections and then submitted for full skills assessment to ANMAC and received a positive skills assessment in January - then put in an Expression of Interest for a 189 visa with 65 points. I will apply later today or tomorrow for the 190 NSW state sponsored with 65 points plus 5 points for state nomination. Wishing you all the best as I am relatively new here too xx
