lam351444 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Hello everyone, I got an email from Vic govt that my application for visa 190 has been rejected because I don't have an offer of employment. I am in Adelaide, so i need to provide that. I am very frustrated now, because i am thinking whether I should relocate to Melbourne or not, and then reapply. Any similar experience so far? Best wishes, Sara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lam351444 Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 Here is the email from vic govt: Thank you for your application for Victorian Government nomination under the 190 - Skilled Nominated visa scheme. Following a review of your application, we regret to inform you that you have not been selected for visa nomination by the Victorian Government. Your application for Victorian Government state nomination was reviewed individually and assessed with a focus on your ability to address a number of criteria, including: § your ability to meet the minimum eligibility criteria, § the demand for your particular skills and expertise, and your ability to find work in Victoria, § the suitability and transferability of your qualifications, skills and experience – including any specialist capabilities – to the needs of Victoria’s labour market, § your ability and commitment to establishing yourself, and any dependents, in Victoria, § the number of nomination applications received relative to the number of nomination places available for your occupation. Your application was not selected for state nomination because it did not include an offer of employment. Provision of an offer of employment is a minimum eligibility requirement for applicants living in an Australian state or territory other than Victoria. This requirement has been set to give interstate applicants an opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to living and working in Victoria. There are other visa pathways for highly skilled workers who want to live and work in Victoria and we encourage you to investigate other visa options on the Department of Home Affairs’ website for alternative visa pathways: www.homeaffairs.gov.au. See our website for further information on nomination requirements: liveinmelbourne.vic.gov.au/ We wish you all the best for your future endeavours.

If it's a minimum eligibility requirement, weren't you aware of that before you applied? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
