parisienne Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Yes I have. I got a positive result from VETASSESS for Financial Investment Advisor, and launched an EOI a few weeks ago. Since then I haven't heard any news...I think the plan is just to wait for someone (who needs a Financial Investment Advisor) to see my profile on the website and sponsor me. What about you?

gtaark Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 For which state have you submitted the EOI? I think after submitting the EOI, you have to submit an application to that state. I also have an approved skill assessment..just waiting for my IELTS results...then I will lodge the EOI. Good to know that you are on the same job nomination Yes I have.

parisienne Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I submitted the EOI for New South Wales. It didn't say anything about having to submit an application to the state of NSW, can you show me the link where it says this? But I'm not sure if anything is going to materialize. Not trying to be pessimistic, but the finance game (as we see it in Europe) is anything BUT lacking professionals. There are so many people looking for finance jobs, what with the rounds of firing and entire departments being shut down. Even when I was interviewing in Sydney they mentioned how hard it was to find a finance job these days. I still really hope the EOI works out, but I'm very aware of the possibility that absolutely nothing will happen, that our EOIs will just be launched and no one will EVER contact us... What are your views? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are your views? For NSW you will have to apply to them for sponsorship. They won't just scan through EOIs and select candidates.

RAJ198021 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Even I got a positive response from VETASSES for Financial Investment Advisor.

RAJ198021 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I applied under the Financial Investment Adivsor to NSW after positive reponse from VETASSES in November 2012.

Ok, so I've been searching online for almost an hour trying to do this. What do you guys mean by saying I "have to apply to them", do you mean that I have to launch another EOI for NSW only, or do you mean that I have to apply to specific jobs?

RAJ198021 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 You can go to NSW website http://www.business.nsw.gov.au/live-and-work-in-nsw/visa-and-migration/skilled-sponsored-migration and fill up all the forms and post it to the NSW office along with a dd of Aud $300. attach all the relevant documents and submit EOI number on the NSW form.

parisienne Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Thanks Mattybe and Raj for the info, and Raj I read your link. Guys, thanks for your help. But I'm confused as to whether I can actually take action and apply to anything. It says on Raj's link: "Skilled Nominated 190 visa: This visa requires nomination by a State or Territory Gov't to the DIAC". Looking further into this 190 visa, on http://www.immi.gov.au/skills/skillselect/index/visas/subclass-190/ , it says: "Applications are by invitation only. To be invited to apply, a person must: - submit an Expression of Interest and be nominated" I had submitted an EOI (an ENS, 186) to Australia as a country, stating NSW as the state I'd like to work in. This 186 visa is explained on SkillSelect website as "If you do not have an employer who will nominate you, you can lodge an Expression of Interest through SkillSelect. Employers and state and territory governments can then view your details and decide whether to nominate you for skilled migration." I did this 2 months ago. From them onwards I haven't heard anything. I have definitely NOT received any letters with invitations in them. What do you guys think ?

mattybe Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Ok, the 186, yes you can have an EOI and if you are very fortunate an employer may choose to nominate you. May happen, may never happen. Your occupation - Financial investment advisor - 222311 , is on the CSOL list - http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/_pdf/sol-schedule1-2.pdf So you can submit an EOI for a 190 for a state to sponsor you. 222311 is on the NSW nominate occupations. http://www.business.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0019/25147/Revised-Occupations-Sponsored-by-NSW-2013.pdf However, you must apply to NSW directly and ask/apply for sponsorship Look here :- on "How to Apply" - http://www.business.nsw.gov.au/live-and-work-in-nsw/visa-and-migration/skilled-sponsored-migration So, you have your EOI on, subtype 190, with NSW as your nominated state. You then apply to NSW and give them your EOI number. If they look at your application and decide to nominate you , then you will receive an invite to apply for a 190 subtype. Any clearer ?

RAJ198021 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Take aprint of all the 4 forms and attach all the relevant work papers and other copies and attach a DD of AUD 300. Send the papers to NSW office address. It takes about 10-11 weeks for processing and once you nominated by NSW, you will get an invitation by DIAC for visa 190. I submitted all the forms and documents in November 2012 and m waiting for the outcome. Hopefully i should get the approval by next week.

Chrisru Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hi, I am also applying for this role. I started 4 months ago and waiting to hear back from Vetassess. By the sounds of it, everything sounds positive going from your responses. The agency I am using is putting me through the 190 visa, heading to Perth. I have been told that I have 55 points, with the ielts results I should now have 65 and then hopefully go wait for the EOI. Are you guys looking to do the RG146 financial planning exam to operate in Aus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisru Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hi gtaark, how did you find out about WA has reached it's capacity for Financial Advisers? We would of preferred NSW anyway but we were advised by our agent that WA has a shortfall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
