Hello All, My Professional Year graduation date was 19 August 2019 and I was invited to apply for 189 on 14 October 2022. My initial thinking was that my PY was valid for 4 years from the graduation date, however, I have read elsewhere that the PY is valid for 4 years from the start date. This would mean that it is only valid 3 years from the graduation date. I fear now, that if PY is only valid for 4 years from the start date, my 189 may be rejected as I have mistakenly over-claimed 5 points. Does anyone have more information on PY validity and whether it is valid from start date or graduation date? Should I withdraw my 189 application? Any assistance on this matter would be a huge help. Thank you and kind regards, Hashim

Thank you very much for the responses

Hello All, I was recently invited to apply for a 189 visa, however, I currently also have an application in progress for 887. Is it possible for me to apply for 189 alongside my 887 application? Or do I have to first withdraw my 887 and then apply for 189? I want to apply for 189 as I think it might be quicker than my 887, which I applied for 9 months ago. Your prompt assistance in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thank you and kind regards,
