NSW 190 State - Business Analyst Code

[trapme]

Hi,

 

I would like to understand, if somehow we can get the visibility of the how much points required to get an invitation by NSW for business analyst code?

 

I have 65 points, can someone please guide me, if they think that i can get an invite for sure with this score?

 

Another question, if i get an invite and i already spent more than 3 years here in Australia already. Once i get my 190 VISA approved, can i apply for a citizenship after an year like in the case of 189 VISA?

 

 

Please advise.

Hi TM,

 

Unfortunately the NSW government does not disclose its pass marks for the subclass 489 or 190 visas, largely to avoid creating expectations, but in general you should consider that they do make more than 4000 offers leading to an invitation to apply for these visas every year and to that extent there is clearly a rational basis for applying to the NSW government if you're only 5 points short of the published pass mark for your occupation, see http://www.border.gov.au/WorkinginAustralia/pages/14-september-2016-round-results.aspx . At the moment it's notable that Business Analysts are at 65 points in Skill Select and may increase to 70 points shortly, that may affect your decision.

 

Yes your citizenship rights are calculated according to the period spent legally in Australia but be careful since any period of illegality may reset the clock. Best to check your rights through http://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Citi or http://www.citizenship.gov.au .

 

Cheers,

Thank you Geroge. so what you are suggesting is that, as i am having 65 points and getting extra 5 points for NSW state sponsorship will fetch me 70 points and having a fair chance of getting an invitation for 190 visa?
