Difference in 189 and 190?
 
Hi ... Can anyone explain main difference in 189 and 190 ?

Is it mandatory to live in particular state for 2 years in-case of 190 ?

What is good option ... to select both 189 and 190 in EOI stage or only one i.e. 189 ?

Re: Difference in 189 and 190?
 
The main difference is that a 190 requires state sponsorship. So, you would need to find a state sponsoring your occupation and be able to meet any special requirements. Each state imposes its own. For example, most occupations for WA state sponsorship require a job offer.
Then, there is no guarantee the state will give sponsorship. They can refuse for many reasons. Then, some states often make refusals but offer sponsorship for a 489 instead.
There is currently no legal obligation to stay in the sponsoring state on a 190. However this could change in the future
There is nothing stopping you doing two eoi's and letting them run side by side.

You can lodge two separate eoi's.
Personally though I don't see a lot of point. But there is nothing detrimental for doing.
