SOL 189 Visa Partner Points

[JenPen]

Hello

 

So Mr JP is the main applicant - we are going to apply for Visa in March hopefully; my question is do we tick partner on SOL too and get the 5 points extra? When do they wish for the evidence of this?

 

I ask because I qualify as a Midwife in September, so could we tick this box as this will be the case when we enter Australia…..or would it not be looked at because at the time of application I would not have been qualified?

 

Thanks for any help just trying to scrape more points now as looks as though Mr JP cannot get SS anymore :arghh:

You have to have a positive skills assessment when submitting the EOI to claim partner points.

 

Edit: Also have you considered sitting the IELTs test to gain extra points?

To get the points for partner skill, you need to assess the skill, and the occupation has to be on the same list as the main applicant's (SOL or CSOL).
