Hi,

A quick question. I am lodging my visa application through skill select.
unfortunately the limit of my credit card is less than 3060 australian dollars. Please suggest an alternate ?
Can I pay in two installments ?

Thanks in advance

Pay some money onto your credit card or ask them to increase the credit limit!

I submitted my EOI on 13th of NOV with 60 points, according to recent invitation round, on 3rd of December. I should get invitation as date of effect moved to 27/11/2012, but I have not got any invitation.
I guess this date of effect is not reliable anymore.

Any feedback what could be the reason?

Not everyone who submits an EOI gets an invitation.

But according to statement given on report I should get it
"If you wish to compare your Expression of Interest (EOI) against the outcomes of the invitation round, you can check your points score and visa date of effect at any time for all visa subclasses covered by your EOI on the home page of your SkillSelect EOI".

Is there any formula or priority rule to get invitation, even if you have required points or date of effect?

You have to accept that a visa is a privilege not a given. It matters not what you offer, what points you have, not everyone who applies for a visa is going to be successful. You may be at some point but it's most definitely not a foregone conclusion.

There must be. I certainly have managed to obtain a visa exactly as prescribed on the skillselect website. My nominated occupation, points and "date of effect" were all relevant at the time of invitation and fitted in with the prioritisation of invitation information provided under the "reports" tab. It may be worth having a chat with DIAC to find out why you weren't offered an invitation if your points and date of effect were equal to/ earlier than those of some of the pool of applicants who were invited to apply for a similar visa.

Let us know how you get on and good luck.

Hi All,
I want to know that if a migrant has submitted an EOI and falls under the time and date of applicants invited, he surely will be invited or they have different rule for different occupations. I am assuming that occupational celling has not been met.

Hi Guys
I am wondering if anyone could advise me on the online application process, i have been invited to apply for the 189 through skillselect i have uploaded all my docs paid the fee but i stll have not been allocated a CO and the book medicals button online does not seem to work it just comes up with system error 500, i have emailed skillselect to infom them with no responce, so i have taken on myself to get the medicals done, my worry is that i have missed something silly like a submit button and the invitation will expire on the 31st of dec, i am aware that the immi are having technical problems but i have had no correspondance and getting rather worried.
wondering if anyone is having the same problems.

I have a number of questions if anyone could help me.

If I submit an EOI for a 189 and decide I would like to get employer sponsored instead such as the 187, can I cancel the EOI and make a new application for employer sponsorship?

I am currently on a 476 visa and am wondering what will happen if I submit an EOI for a 189 and my 476 visa runs out, while I am waiting?

Also I have 65 points and am waiting for a skills assessment - hoping to be recognised as an Engineering Technologist - what would be my chances of getting an invite based on the current trends?

Many thanks for any help!!

I'm sorry I don't know much about the skill select process, but I do know that the general advice is to wait for CO before doing medicals and police checks. Given the expiry date for you to apply, were you invited Oct 31?

Hi first of all plz bullet point your questions like 1) 2) 3) . . . .so that someone can easily understand.

Secondly, before completion of your assessment dont think to submit EOI for 189

Any one can clarify
