I don get alert, God win. I got my grant for 190 visa yesterday. Thanks to God and good people on this thread. Below are my timeline and other details to serve as guide to others:

7-Feb-2015 Took the IELTS test N35,000
21-Feb-2015 IELTS result out (7, 7.5, 7.5, cool
Applied for transcripts and arranged all docs N20,000
17-Mar-2015 Applied to ICAA for skills and experience assessment A$550 (N93,495.28)
(Nominated occupation: Management Accountant)
8-May-2015 Positive assessment result, but about 6 years experience was cut to less than 2 years.
8-May-2015 Was short of 5 points because I couldn't claim points for work experience, therefore opted for 190. Lodged my EOI (selected NSW)
15-May-2015 Received invite from NSW to apply for nomination.
19-May-2015 Applied for NSW nomination via email A$300 (N49,628.94)
12-June-2015 Collected my PCC N,5000
15-June-2015 Received NSW nomination and invite to apply for 190 visa
16-June-2015 Lodged my application for visa A$3520 (N568,906.35)
1-July-2015 Concluded all Medicals including Polio certificate N45,000
5-August-2015 Received direct visa grant without contact from CO
12-June-2016 Must enter Australia before this date

The whole process took me about 7 months and cost about N817,030.57

Next step for me is to try to get a job before I land Oz (God help me). Plan to travel Jan/Feb next year.

Non SVP takes 3months, some applicants get their response 3months and 2wks. So u will wait till ending of Sept b4 u will get response. If everything are in plc, they may not even contact you. Your Visa may just drop on ur email.

But U MUST WAIT!!! cool

Thank you so much... Waiting and praying.

What about people who don't have English names at all?
NNBB2012:

You are welcome. Tips for your cv: Your first name should be English name, Put Australian PR holder on top of your cv after your name,let your cv be achievements focussed that is how you were able to make savings etc.,your certifications would be good as well. Don't think only one cv would do; try and update your cv from time to time. Keep applying and don't give up.

NNBB2012:

If you know you have the required points for 190, why not follow the steps and see if your application would fly. You must find your occupation on CSOL list. Unfortunately, the occupation is not on the SOL list hence you cannot apply for Independent visa but rather CSOL. It means you can only be nominated by state, regional area or family. Check any state nominating your occupation and know their requirements. Some of these requirements may not be easy to get from outside. As a matter of fact, this is supposed to guide you as per the choice of your University. And also check with your assessing body to know their requirements. You may require licence or registration before you can be assessed-http://pharmacycouncil.org.au/content/assets/files/Examination%20Guides/Flowchart%20-%202012.02.08.pdf .
It is not straightforward. My view, you should consider to do your Master where you may have extra points that would enhance your PR chances later.
Thanks alot

Next step is to get your qualifications assessed. Do you have an accounting professional qualification like ICAN, ACCA etc? I doubt if only first degree in accounting will suffice.

Your application will fly . Search for my previous posts on this forum which detailed steps to take that will leadd to PR. You will definitely write CDR for your assessment with Engineers Australia. The 7.5band IELTS is it in each of the components?What is your age? Age=?, Edu=15points, Expe=0points, IELTS(7,7,7,7)=10points, confirm that.

The person needs to adopt one just for your cv and that doesn't change your real name. Everybody has preferred name that is easy to pronounce by people and that is the aim.

Thanks oh. I already went through it but the process is not clear cut. I'm a bit unsure as to whether they require me to submit a paper application or not. I even sent them a mail and all they replied with was a check list.
