Re: We have been approved!!!!
Great news, we are going to submit EOI in June once I take some accounting exams, can I ask were you selected with no job offer and no skills shortage points? We would have 130 max but without either of the above too and am interested to know if anyone is getting picked that low down the pecking order so to speak?
They were picking that low last year, but for some reason this year it hasnt got down that far - any ideas
Hope everything goes well for you

Thanks for the reply, no not yet submitted an EOI, as didnt think it was worth it at the moment without a job offer. Can I ask what skills shortage you went in on? We are also possibly looking for a business (I ran one for 8 years) but would prefer to get in via a job as its a lot quicker route to PR.

That is the way a WTR via the SMC works. If they are not sure about settlement or viability to sustain oneself they will offer WTR instead of PR.

@ ellenarosemary. I saw your post was wondering if you have progressed and submitted EOI. For your information I launched my EOI 5th october 2010, claiming 115 points (no job offer but skills in demand) got selected but still waiting for a successful status and invitation.I guess 130 point would be a comfortable pick if your skills is in the demand list.
