VERYSTORMY Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 The system at the moment appears to be operating more slowly than normal and having some difficulties. Largely because of the huge amount of changes that have occurred in the last few months. So, it is difficult to estimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody2709 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I submitted my EOI on 5th July as Electrician with 60 points, nothing on the first round so see what happens on the 26th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeSab Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 We submitted EOI for visa 189 since May 12th for Telecomunication Network engineer with 65points. No response we thought it would be faster. Its a long waitSent from my SM-J700H using PomsinOz mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettiblu Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Hi, was yesterday the next round for invites? I am a social worker and submitted mine the last round (June) with 65 points and was invited straight away. Fingers crossed you get your invite soon Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iRuleU Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 (edited) Invites are going to 70+ pointers and pro rata occupations are sucking up most of the invites. Hopefully things should equalize after first or second round of August. Edited July 25, 2017 by iRuleU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettiblu Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Ahhh ok, do you have an agent? Perhaps they emailed them and they haven't passed it on to you.I was chatting to someone on here who had 60 point and think they got an invite the second round so hopefully you won't be waiting too long :-) Sent from my iPhone using PomsinOz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srg73 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) To set people's expectations, it took me 2 rounds to be accepted with 85 points! Yes my application was month 1, accepted month 2 of the new system 5 yeas ago today. Now in Brisbane and never looked back.

mrsgellerby Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Occupational ceilings have been released. They're only letting 1,000 189's in for each of the rounds in August too!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playitbyear Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I submitted my EOI 28/06, Secondary Teacher with 60 points. I've since heard from a Migration Agent that they don't expect any 60 pointer invites to be given out until after June 2018??!! I am hoping they might increase the number of 189 invites from 1000 due to the low number of applicants from NZ. At the moment though, it is looking very bleak!

Yes, i know that the waiting times to be accepted for EOI are long for the 60 pointers, even the 65 pointers are looking at a few months. Have you thought about resitting your IELTS to gain more points? This is an option for me.

Will have 65 at the end of september due to a new age bracket so will just reassess then if it's worth staying in the 60 point pile or resubmiiting at 65 points. So many if's and but's if I could have applied earlier but now all I can do is wait.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many if's and but's if I could have applied earlier but now all I can do is wait..I feel your pain! I submitted for two visas one with 60 and one 65! No invitation yet - it's an anxious wait!!! What's bothering me is I hear of automatic invites the same or next day and then also invitation rounds ? I have booked to resit ielts as my reading score lost me ten points ! :-((Sent using Poms in Oz mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinahbt Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I have submitted my EOI with 65 points as a civil engineer (ANZSCO code 233211). My process has been as follows: Submitted my documents on Engineers Australia (which took me almost 9 months to write down everything and collect the job letters) --> October 2nd 2017 Received Engineers Australia positive Outcome letter (Applied fast track but two public holidays were happening there as well) --> October 25th 2017 Requested a name edit in my outcome letter (asked the EA to remove the spaces written between the parts of my last name) --> October 25th Got my revised outcome letter and submitted my EOI --> November 6th When do you think I should be expecting an invitation for visa 189?
