I believe in the end, as long as you get the positive assessment and eventually get the 189, you can do anything, yeah? so in theory, it shouldnt matter what you get assessed as...at least this is how I have always seen it...and I hope I am right, cos na finance jobs I dey aim for as I dey so, despite professional enginer assessment...pls advise if you have any additional knowledge on this issue.

Wondering why you didn't assess as Telecom Network Engineer since you have equivalent degree

I have written PTE, IELTS General and academic (multiple visa apps and tests written in error) I have been fortunate enough to get superior english assessment for all the tests at the first instance. in my opinion, IELTS is actually easier than PTE, but not in terms of content, but exam structure. One can lose his way very easily in a PTE exam if youre not switched on for 100% of the time. you need to concentrate in your IELTS too, but it is easier to do so in IELTS cos it is a more conventional exam environment, unlike PTE test conditions. AT least, na so I see am sha...

If EA say B, who are we to Say Q.

Kindly adhere to EA guidelines.

which is easier is debatable, however most people here lean towards PTE

Oh, yeah...just wanted to say...

I dont come here very often, except when I really need some shapr info...and somehow, I have never needed any agent except the well meaning people of this thread. I have made moves based on what i have read here, my family is currently making moves, and I am currently waiting for EOI hopefully in june...I just wanted to say a big thanks to all the Mods and the well meaning people who answer all the questions, stupid or not...Na only God fit reward una, Bellong and co...

special shoutout to Malkingburg, by the way. met him and his mrs a few months back. always willing to help with on point advice...

Yeah, you can work in any field when you land Aussie. But before then, you can only submit EOI for an occupation you've secured a positive assessment for, so one needs to be very careful at this stage particularly if they have multiple occupational options.

A friend read computer engineering and assessed as electronic engineer despite having close to 2 decades of mainstream telecoms experience. Now he couldn't wait for electronic long queue ( with a low score) and contemplating another assessment to nominate telecoms network engineer. No one wants to get caught up in such avoidable situation.

As per your submission above, you don't necessarily have to come here only when you need info, you might also want to consider coming around to render help too in your own little way. Many here have long got their Palli but still come around to help others.

If you have provided what was requested as well as explanation for grey areas, then worry not. It turned out most of us subjected ourselves to needless worries.

Hello House

So here is my final option

BSc - 15 Points
Age - 25 points
**wouldn't turn 25 until December 2018**
English --- 20 points ** awaiting result.

Done assessment for Developer Programmer with ACS and got +ve assessment.

Now I've been told I'll beed 65 points to scale through at EOI.

Question: What is/are my chance(s) of getting state nomination to add up to my potential 60 points as I can not afford to wait till December 2018 to get additional 5 point via age.

Thanks

Well 65pts is for the concluded year... HOPEFULLY it may drop to 60 for the new year.

That being said, partner points (5) is available. Pls note partner is not only married people...there is A de facto relationship status which is acceptable

https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/189-/Skilled-Independent-visa-(subclass-189)-document-checklist


You can equally look at visa 190 which gives you 5 pts..

Apologies, my friend...I know I should do more, and I will try from here on in...and I never get the confam pali per se...went in on 476 initially, so I am now just submitting my EOI and hoping on june invite...

Does the new year start in 1st July ?

And how can I know if the points were dropped to 60* or stayed at 65*

That being said, partner points (5) is available. Pls note partner is not only married people...there is A de facto relationship status which is acceptable

I'll think about this later and see it as last option as I don't want anything to complicate my life in the near future

You can equally look at visa 190 which gives you 5 pts..

Please can you briefly tell me the difference between the 190 and 189.

Thanks

Nothing to apologize about bro, you haven't done anything wrong..........i was just pointing ur attention to something you might want to consider doing ni.

What's your nominated occupation?

My bro nor be so? Check all computer, IT, networking or software related visa applications on immi tracker and be wowed.

DIBP might need to find a way to balance up ITA in those fields.........it's currently too disproportionate.

Yes, the new migration year starts by July 1st and end by June 30th

Stick to this thread and you will be informed of current points or always check invitation round result on DIBP.

Summary of 189 vs 190

190 is a sponsored VISA where a sponsorship from a State or a Territory Government is required. Should you be granted a VISA under this subclass there are obligations to undertake, such as that candidate needs to live and work for minimum of two years in the nominating state and to participate in surveys conducted by the state and so forth.

189 is an independent VISA where the candidate does not need sponsorship, and if the candidate is granted a VISA under 189, they can live and work anywhere in Australia

These EA people sha...I just dey look dem say these people no well...me wey i struggle use my savings do masters abroad...read day and night write my coursework get better mark...one 'assessor' now sends me message that there is evidence of plagiarism in the coursework i used for CDR...after paying for fast track and waiting a thousand years still o...I just gave them the email for my course adviser in the uni and told them to confirm for themselves, and a week later, they released the CDR with positive assesment. sometimes, you just have to leae it for god and be patient with these people...even the times I tried calling, dem go just dey follo person talk like saw I enter boat come dia country illegally...

Rightly put up mate, I think I am worrying for no reason since I have done all work by myself and have not copied anything from anywhere, sometimes wait makes u restless

Lol.. even in most intl forums, its more like Australian migration for Indians. No chill atall.

Hello everyone. Been a silent follower of this thread. Please is there any person here already in Australia working in the agricultural field. Please can that person help with info about jobs over there and whether it's competive as compared to other fields. Thank you very much as you pour in your answers

holysainbj:


i have been waiting your reply

I answered your questions immediately, you need to go back and read it.

larrymoore1:

Environmental scientists are only sponsored by Northern Territory and Tasmania. Nobody knows if it will be on the list for long. However, environmental science is not a bad profession as there are lot of jobs in the field especially in asbestos management.

If you are an engineer, environmental engineering would be a better course to study as it is still available for 189 although flagged.

Cities you may be considering Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane

chemical engineering...

they actually told me that fast track assessment takes at least 24 working days, as against at least four months with normal. God pass all fo them.
