Re: EOI Timings
In recent round of invitations a score of at least 65 points has been required.
Whilst it has been reducing, it is difficult to predict into the future as to when it might reach 60 points, and how long it will take the backlog will clear again as this depends upon a variety of variables that will occur in the future. |

Re: EOI Timings
oh right so it doesnt work on length of time your eoi has been in purely on points so if another 1000 people with 65 points apply ill be at the back of the que again?

Re: EOI Timings
see which occupation, some pro rata occupation usually got higher scores than 65.
just keep an eye on the DIBP website: 20 September 2017 round results |

Hope this helps I put in an eoi with 65 points on the 14th September, and was offered an invite during the 4th October round. |
Re: EOI Timings
It is not "60 and you are [eventually] in." They rank based on points total. So if someone submits tomorrow and is on 65 points, they will be given an invitation before you.
As for whether to re-do IELTS - do you want to come to Australia or not? |

As for whether to re-do IELTS - do you want to come to Australia or not? I think redoing the ielts should be based on how quickly you want to get offered a visa. I suppose no-one can guarantee when or if they get invited, it depends on the occupation ceiling too. I would check how the places for your occupation are filling up too. If you have 60 points now with 10 points for ielts, the extra 10 will put you 70 and then you will be invited above all the people with 65 points. |
