I got 491 invitation from ACT matrix, ACT use there own point system and only need 65 EOI point for nomination.
I mistakenly claim PY 5 points on EOI thinking i have to mention all PY I have done till invitation. My point on EOI was 90 points but i would have got invitation over 65 points for sure. I never know PY point can only be claimed if its for Nominated occupation. I would have never claimed this 5 point from PY if i was aware.
I was totally unaware that I cant claim PY on Computing for pathology collector. I was just honest and wrote yes on questions if i have done py as I thought I should mention any PY done.
even the question is so confusing it asked as
“Has the Client completed a gazetted professional year in Australia in the last 48 months?”
- I said Yes as I thought I must tell any PY I have done in this period.
I got s56 saying to provide proof on how py is related to professional year. What should i do?
It is just unintentional mistake and did not get that 5 point to be invited. In this case can case office reduce my point or reconsider?
I saw somewhere case officer van consider inadvertent error.
also, Called home affairs and they asked me to write a cover letter, but my concern is do COs have power to change points or offer anything?
