Invitation issues following submission of EOI

[MatthewTJ]

Hi,

I waited 60 days for my visa invitation to expire as I wasn’t 100% happy after I had submitted my EOI. When I went into skillselect to change my EOI, literally as I was updating it I was invited again, still with the original score that I was not happy with. I was wondering if anyone had heard of this case before and if so what my options could be.

 

Thanks,

Matthew

If you think you have made a mistake on your EOI, I thought you could cancel or withdraw it?

Hi Rupert,

Yes you can change the information within your EOI but only if you haven't already been invited. Even though our intention is to receive an invite we were in the middle of editing our EOI when received an invite. This now means the EOI can't be changed and the only chance of editing it now is if we wait another 60 days.

Sorry I wasn't clear, I said why don't you cancel it if it is incorrect. And just start a new one.

Hello Matthew,

 

People strive to get good scores before submitting EOI's in order to make their chances of getting invitations higher. But does the score really matter after you are invited? If you got an invitation that means that your EOI was already checked against the cut-off minimum and that your score is equal to or higher than that cut-of minimum. You are through and now it is only a matter of you conforming properly to what the CO asks you to do...............GRANT awaits in the end.
