Hi,
There seems to be alot of talk and interest in moving to 176 State Sponsorship visas from 175 visa due to the priority processing.
I am still going with the 175 as it has less restrictions even though the wait may now be longer but I do think about looking at the sponsorship option sometimes.
Are alot of people actually switching?

I'd say dont switch based on the propaganda of DIAC.. the 'CSL'....
what next, the VVISFHCSL? very very important super-fast highly critical skill list?
all rubbish - and the state sponsorship takes 1 - 2 months anyway, so you lose there based on a gamble. 175 = full independent, and worth it
