Hello, what exactly does that date of effect mean and how does it relate to when one expects ITA? I have seen you guys talk about it once a while and I just want a better understanding.
Thanks

Alphadoor:


Example: ITA received July 25 with 70points for Accountant with Date of Effect (DOE) 18/11/2016 12:20pm

That means, in that round, the lowest ranked invitee in that occupation had 70 points and he submitted (or last updated) his EOI on 18/11/2016 12.20 pm. So, you can conclude three things (for that particular occupation):
Nobody below 70 points got invitation in the that round
All 70+ points got invitation
Among the EOIs with 70 points, those who submitted (or last updated) after 18/11/2016 12.20 pm did not get invitation.

hope that helps..

update:

All the EOIs will be sorted by points (highest to lowest) and within each point break they will be sorted by date of effect (oldest to newest). If they decide to invite 200 applicants in an invitation round, they will select the first 200 in the list. The cut-off publishes on the DIBP website is the points/date of effect of the last person who was invited.

During the time to the next invitation, new EOIs will be submitted and they will again be sorted by points/date of effect. So if you have 65 points, any new EOI with more points will go ahead of you in the queue. Any 65 point EOIs will go behind you (since you have an older EOI).

For 60 point applicants, they will remain in the queue until they reach the front of the line. The reality is that there have consistently been more new EOIs with at least 65 points to fill each invitation round, so those with 60 points are not moving forward in the line.

The occupation ceiling has been set for 2016-2017 and it will reset on July 1st. However they still refer to the same queue of EOI applications so the 60-point EOIs may continue to stand still while new EOIs overtake them.

Mamajaz can you see this. 16,741 slots for RN and only 18 issued so far. This is your year and turn to share Timeline of breakthrough.

Amen brother. Thanks for the encouragement.

We need all the point we can get.
You guys should be fast oh.

Despite the fact that they didn't exhaust the ceiling for civil engineering professionals last year, they still increased the ceiling this year. Does this increase we see correlate to the fact that more civil professional are required in the Australian labor market?

Guess it's a good thing, more so it's not on prorata.

Kamal7 prepare for your ITA.

Construction and Agriculture are very big in Australia.

bellong:


There is no need repeating what you have written before. If you choose to answer a question that suits you, how do we piece your information together to give you an informed opinion.

What is your spouse's occupation and qualification?

Jbelieve:


Hi, does it mean with 60 or 65 points one can get an ITA in the above occupations irrespective of other occupations requiring 70 and above points in subsequent rounds.

Good morning trip014,

I assessed with ICAA and the assessment was very fair. I know someone who assessed with CPA and didn't have any issues too. I don't know much about the 3rd body.

I know their requirements are very similar if not same, so go to their respective sites. For starters, you need a minimum of certain scores in IELTS (academics), PTE-A or TOEFL (I don't know which of the English tests you did).

You need your school degree certificate, transcript and syllabus. I will advise you use your Accounting degree only to get the maximum number of years which you already have.

I hope this helps a little.

i will suggest you apply for your assessment with TRA. So as to avoid Engineering Technologist, look for an occupation closely related to your certificate and apply.

Hello bro,
Congrats again on your smooth sailing.

@bellong @sammywemmy
I have a few concerns:
I have an ND, HND and BSc all in civil/structural engineering, with cognate work experience. I can only claim points on work experience with my HND, cos I have 7+yrs post HND experience. The outcome from EA will definitely be an engr tech. I can't claim points on work experience with my BSc, cos I have 2+yrs post BSc experience. If I don't claim points on work experience, I'd have 50points, if I do, I'd end up with engr tech and 65points.

1. What are the implications of getting PR visa under EA's engr tech? I'm really very skeptical about it, reason being that I have a BSc, yet going in as Engr Tech., instead of structural engineer or professional engineer.
2. Can I upgrade my assessment using my BSc for Structural Engineer, after obtaining the visa?
3. What qualification did you tender? Was your EA assessment for qualification and relevant skilled experience or just qualification?

Kindly disregard any typo errors, please.

Thanks.

trip014:
thank you Toslad,
i wrote ielts, how did you get you schools syllabus? doses it need to be stamped?

Rett0:
Occupational ceiling is finally out.
Hmmm. Other professional engineers (1000) on prorata.

We'll have to reassess as Professional Telecom Engr. if we don't get 20points from English test.

Did anyone notice the overall number of invitations per round has been only 1000 and will be 1000 for the next 2 rounds?
This is disheartening. It's well

bumpypat:
Good day E family...please i am a civil engineer d maximum points i cn gt is 65 or 60..any hope for gt ITA wit dat wit dis latest development of 70 points::thanks all

Cottyekundayo:

Base point for civil engineering remains at 60.

jayooh:

But when will people at this base point start seeing ITA, all invitees had 70-80point last round . And with current 1000 invites per round, seems like there is only about 200 slots for other occupations(non prorata) to hustle for, in which the higher points still get invited before others.

bumpypat:
@jayohh is almost impossible for a civil engineer with 60 or 65points to get invited?

ZoeW:
Jesus is Lord!!!

Baba God helep me oo!!! Warrisdis?

jayooh:

They just cleared all their 75pointers niyen. Guess it will drop to 70 points and lesser invitees as time goes

bumpypat:
