bonza2211 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Welcome to PIO I think the 540 is the occupation celing and thats per year not month. Forgive my laziness and not having searched... is there a link/thread on PIO that highlights the Ceiling per occupation/nomination or category post July '12 reforms? E.g. I am to nominate marketing specialist from the new CSOL under Direct entry scheme. Given that I fulfill all criteria how do I find out the ceiling in my respective area? Thanks Bonza!

necromaniac85 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Hi, I received the Assessment from engineers Australia for claiming assessment for professional engineer. Im a telecommunications engineer with a work experience of more than 5 years. The assessment report mentions as standing for a Professional Engineer (skill level 1). What is the meaning of this skill level 1? does it imply any specific applications only? I have a total points of 55 when it comes to 189 class visa(independent) and 60 points for 190 ( sponsored). My IELTS score is 6.5 for the listening part, the only score below 7 hence i cannot claim the extra 10 points for IELTS 7 band. Could anyone advice me whether I should go for the state sponsorship or redo my IELTS so that i can claim 10 points for it and make my points score to 65 for the 189 class visa (independent) It would be a great help if anyone could advice regarding this. Thanks, Dushanthan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Dushanthan Check whether your preferred State Government requires a higher IELTS result if they are going to sponsor your visa application. If they don't, go for State Sponsorship and a subclass 190 visa application. Best regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer to go to Victoria/NSW. Also I would like to know is it possible for me to choose which state I would like to go for the State Sponsorship and a subclass 190 visa application?

necromaniac85 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Hi all, After checking the skillselect invitations in August and september i noticed there has been no invitations for subclass 190. Does anyone know why this is the case? I have exactly 60 points to apply only the 190 visa. Will they never send invitation for subclass 190?

Alan Collett Posted September 30, 2012 Author Share Posted September 30, 2012 Invitations for subclass 190 applications are forthcoming quickly once the State has advised DIAC of the sponsorship. Best regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie91 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hi. We have been selected in the first pool in August to apply for the 189 visa. Our medicals have been submitted this week and I think it's now just a waiting game. Has anyone else been selected in the first pool and is there any indication yet of how long applications are taking to process? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yabisht Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 We are planning to apply for PR. Need inputs from the forum members. Me and my husband have work ex or 4y4m and 5 y respectively, but it is split in two parts. Before and after MBA. Current work ex post MBA is 2 yr 4 months for both. Subclass 189 and 190 says 36/48 months in last 4 yrs should be in same occupation. So we are unable to find the right visa type for us. because 30 months back we were actually in B-schools. Other work ex previous to MBA is 23 months (me) 33 months (husband). We are in the same industry through out the employment: IT industry for 4 Y 4 M (me), and 5 Y (husband) Work profile before MBA - more technical, 70% development or testing, 30% business analysis Work profile after MBA - more functional, 70% business analysis, 30% development or testing Please advise which visa will suit us wrt Australia 189/190? Our ultimate objective is to get PR of Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dugles Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Hi Dushanthan...

Guest derekch Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Hi guys, I graduated from UTS recently (law), received a positive skill assessment and admitted as a solicitor in NSW. My IELTS were unfortunately, L 8.0 R 8.5 S 7.5 W 7.5 . I wanted to apply for the permanent visa 885 but lack the points as I did not score all 8s in my IELTS. Now Looking at the Skill Select, I would meet the pass park (60) when I hit 25 in January next year and I think I would be eligible for an extra 5 points if I was sponsored by NSW. Just wondering if I need to retake the IELTS again and if there are other requirements to meet to be eligible for sponsorship by the state government??? Regards, Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Danial Shah Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 I completed my EOI on 31st July with 60 points but didnt submitt untill 19th Oct . My EOI was showing 31/07/2012 as Date of effect untill yesterday when it suddenly changed to 19/10/2012:mad:. So I suppose when you actually submitt your EOI thats what becomes your date of effect right? Because I didnt change any information before submitting my EOI which could change my points score. Any feedback would be apreciated I thought some readers of the forum would be interested in the following extract from newly published DIAC policy on the SkillSelect model: To ensure that every EoI has a unique ranking, equally scoring EoIs will be separated by the date and time at which the intending migrant met all eligibility factors and points test score for a given subclass. The time of effect will be updated each time the intending migrant amends their EoI resulting in a change to their points test score or eligibility for a subclass. If an intending migrant changes their information, but it does not change their points score or eligibility, this will not alter their date of effect for the purposes of ranking against a particular subclass of visa. The ranking of an EoI will also change if SkillSelect determines that the intending migrant is no longer eligible for a particular visa or claims against the points test have changed resulting in a higher or lower points test score - for example, if the intending migrant: • has completed an EoI for a subclass 189 visa and • has a birthday and turns 50 (exceeding the maximum age permitted) they are no longer eligible to complete an EoI for a Subclass 189 visa. Ranking is an objective and automatic process, conducted by SkillSelect daily in order to facilitate the issue of an invitation with no intervention by departmental staff. The ranking is based on the information provided by the intending migrant. An example of how the points score of an EoI for a given subclass would change due to an intending migrant updating their details is as follows: An intending migrant submitted a complete EoI for a subclass 189 Skilled - Independent visa on 1 August 2012. They claimed a points score of 55, which included 10 points for their trade qualification. They later completed a bachelor degree, and on 10 September 2012 at 0911 hours and 13 seconds AEST Australian Capital Territory, updated their EoI to claim an additional 5 points for this qualification. Hence for the purposes of ranking the EoI, the date of effect is 10 September 2012 at 0911 hours 13 seconds with a points score of 60 points. This change does not effect the date of submission of their EoI, which is still valid for 2 years from the original lodgment date of 1 August 2012, when they submitted their EoI for the first time. Periodically invitations will be issued to the top ranking EoIs for intending migrants seeking to apply for an independent or family sponsored skilled visa. Best regards.
