monk Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Hi everyone , firstly thank you all for getting us this far without your help and advice we would still be at the start of this long lonely process . We have just submitted an EOI with skillselect for a 190 visa for Victoria with 75 points , my question is can we also submit an EOI for a 189 visa with 70 points at the same time or should we just wait and see how our 190 visa pans out ? Once again thank you all in this community who give up their time and wisdom for free so others might benefit and achieve their dreams of living in Australia .

Rupert Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Are you aware that the points requirement is 60? Presumably your occupation is on the SOL, otherwise you would not be even considering the 189, in which case I cannot see why you are even bothering with the sponsorship process. How many work experience points have you got within that lot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay24 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 If you qualify for a 189 visa, I wouldn't bother with the 190 as it adds the step of state sponsorship, whereas the 189 allows you to live and work anywhere in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monk Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Guys , thank you for your quick and speedy replies , our points breakdown are as follows Age 33-39 25 points English IELTS 20 points Education Degree 15 points State spon Victoria 5 points Years exp ACS 10 points Total 75 points We have applied on the skill of Business Analyst 261111 We went with State Sponsorship as we thought the process would be quicker but having done some further investigation it looks like we were wrong as both timelines seem to be similar so we are now wondering if we should also submit an EOI on a 189 visa , any thoughts or opinions would be gratefully received .
