Lavers Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Hi I think that if you meet the criteria set out by the state then you get an invitation to apply for your visa. Check the states website which you have applied for and that will tell you what you need, also it will give you the estimated processing time.

I have attached all the documents they are asking in the website (Skill Assessment, PTE Score, Passport and Resume). And have 60 points by myself. If state sponsor gives me 10 points, I will have 70 points. As far as I know, higher points will get invitations and others will be rejected. Am I right? Also is there any number limit they have to invite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 60+10 points, I know a few people got 55+10, some of them got 70+10. It depends on the state, they may prefer people with high English score or having relevant experience. Did you submit the employer references? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Occupation: Electrical Engineer Hi VKB22, Did you get the invitation to apply for full EOI? I called SI office this morning and they said it may take from 4 to 6 weeks due to a large amount of application received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the RDA's are waiting for NSW government to give them the "go ahead" to start inviting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VKB22 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 It's also not looking good for electrical engineers as NSW has got only few slots allocated for this occupation. It would be very competitive in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungle Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Thanks for this information. I thought they only limit for 190 only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VKB22 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Nope, it's for the whole NSW. Don't take my words for it tho. Those could be just speculations. Anyway, there isn't much we can do about it. Let's just hope for the best. I'll let you know if I get invited to lodge the full application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
