Kellie23 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 :confused: Please could someone advise? If we submit an EOI with 60 points (poss 65) for a 189 how long is it taking to get invite to apply? When I look on POI peoples time lines show they are getting an invite quite quickly, however just received email from my agent saying could take 12 months to get the invite? Is he just giving a worse case scenario? As I've not seen anyone's taking that long. Help xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebourvellec Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Think it really depends on your occupation and ceiling levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kellie23 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 Think it really depends on your occupation and ceiling levels. When I look on diac his occupation as a mechanic is no where near the ceiling level. Roughly there's 5700 avail and only 100 and something given out.

JenPen Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I think that is worst case scenario IMO as like you say most are processed prior to this timeframe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi ya, I'm really not great on the computer front lol but I go on DIAC website and go on skills select then I go on reports and there's an option for looking at occupational ceilings. Let me know if you find it ok if not I'll ask my hubby when he gets in to find a link or if you tell me your occupation code I'll look it upfront you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Grey Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Since the incorporation of SkillSelect last year, 60 points would have been high enough in that occupation for every invitation round I can think of. The agent is just being conservative which isn't really a bad thing. Next invitation round is on Monday 13th Jan and there's 950 Subclass 189 visa places available. More people apply over the New Year period so it might not happen immediately, but I would anticipate it within the next few invitation rounds.
