Advice re. 189 skilled independent visa

Hi there, 

I'm looking for some advice please. 

I recently received an invite from SkillSelect to apply for the Skilled Permanent 189 visa under my qualification as a Psychologist. When I sent off my EOI initially I believed that one of my jobs was related and put it down as relevant experience - however, I'm now not 100% that this will be the case which would reduce my overall points for work experience (going from 10 points for work experience to 5). However, I've since had my PTE results back and will be able to claim 10 points for superior english which would mean that I would still have over the 60 points needed to be eligible for the 189. 

As my overall points won't have technically dropped below the threshold - I'm wondering if I should still proceed with the invite given that some of the info on my EOI technically has changed? Does anyone have any advice as to how likely it is that my application would be refused? I know you can't provide individual advice but I'd really appreciate some guidance as to whether I should risk applying or wait for another invite on an updated EOI? 

Many thanks in advance

Your application will be refused based on the info you provided. You'll need to wait for the invitation to expire & re submit EOI. It doesn't matter that your points will be still above the threshold the info is incorrect. Good luck at least you realised now and not after submission where you'd loose your fee. O.o

As I said regarding this in another thread, please do not lodge an EOI unless you have all documentation to hand. You are lucky as you have more points to play with. Others may not be so fortunate.

If I understand you correctly, you entered a lower PTE score into the EOI, but now you have discovered that your score was higher than anticipated? If so, it should be noted that you entered an assumed PTE score into a factual field on the EOI - not good.

Regards,

Richard
