Australia skilled nominated visa 190 has opened up for many of the skilled migrants who are looking to live and work and ready to contribute to the economy of country.

As per the latest Australia Pr processing time 75% of the applications are processed in 8 months whereas 91% of the applications are processed in 11 months. The processing time for visa subclass 190 may vary for different reasons. The points score, the availability of occupation and submission of relevant documents are some of the factors. 

The recent update made by Australian immigration authority on 1st July 2018 where the applicant need to score 65 points out of 100 to be eligible to apply for Australia PR. As per the point system earlier it was 60 points which has been increase to 65 points. Although 65 points are the minimum eligibility to apply for Australia PR visa, but the immigration authority pick the applicants who are scoring highest immigration scores on priority bases. therefore applicants now need to score 70 to 75 points to get faster invitation.

Hi Guys. I lodged the Visa application on 16th Nov 2017 also uploaded all the relevant documents. But I haven't got any news from CO .... could you advice me how long it will take and what are the next steps.

This is almost one year.. if you have not got your invitation their could be different factors.

1. May be number of available seat has being filled.

2. May be you are scoring low points.

3. May be the documents submitted are incomplete.

Australia immigration authority invites only those applicants who are highly skilled and qualified with highest immigration score on priority bases. Therefore scoring good points increases your changes to get invitation. 

There is no point of refusal. For going South Australia you need to meet the eligibility requirement of South Australia State Nomination Program. Other  than that if you have visited South Australia so many times its a positive point for you to get faster invitation.
