stepo707:

Though am praying to have a favorable ielts score of 8 each so I can have 70 but Sud incase I have a 60pts, pls how do I go about the nomination thingy for 489.

Eladua:
So, finally it is my turn to testify, the Lord has done it. Like someone mentioned some days back, it will get to a time that one would just get tired of checking mails every morning expecting that grant and just concentrate on other things, I have been like that for some weeks now, only for me to check my mail on a Saturday morning and the grant catwalked in.

It all started last year November when I assessed my qualifications with ACS and they broke my heart with negative outcome based on the fact that my degree isn't equivalent to Aussie Bsc and I needed 4years experience to qualify. I gave up at that moment until when someone here opened my eyes to the possibility of going with TRA so I did and got a positive outcome, even though they were silent on the level of education I went ahead to claim the maximum point for a Bsc, this was my fear with DIBP, alas it came out well.

It's a 489 visa, and my advice for some especially the single ones, if 190 is taking time to get coz of your English test or something, just go with the 489 instead of continuous waiting, before you know it another policy will come up. My occupation was for 190 initially, the day i was to apply for state nomination was when they moved it to 489, so i decided to just go on with it.

Thanks to everyone that has helped me one way or the other and I pray for those still in process, it will land sooner than you think.

Pls anyone that has info on if IOM help with travel tickets for 489 applicants and the process should pls advice.

Eladua:


Same as 190. Check the states sponsoring your occupation and check their requirements and how to apply. You have to apply to the state first.

disectur:


All it does is save you time. Lots of personal time. Don't underestimate how tiresome it can be to keep filling the same information over and over again at every stage of the visa application especially if you're on subclass 190 and aiming for a direct grant.

mamajaz:
is it like this bro
Or: like this, " orunmila gbo adura", the new Ozbourne( Eladua) should come and clarify. I took a course in theology where we were told "Ela" is Orunmila=Jesus.

Eladua:
Anyone interested in buying PTE voucher should contact me @ femiadedoyin02@gmail.com.

stepo707:


so i checked and only qualify for one state.....Although they still said that the benchmark is 70points and then they can go to 65 points and then reduce to 60 depending on applicants.so my question is if i have 60pts on my own, does the state nomination gives me 10pts and then totalling 70points? Also whats the sequence, is it to do the assessment first with ACS or apply to the state nominating first then ACS?

Thanks

Eladua:


You can't have 60points on your own if you haven't done assessment. You have to assess your qualifications and work experience first, state nomination is like the last thing you do. Pls read the first page of the thread well, you will understand the steps.

By the way, what occupation do you have in mind?

stepo707:


Its computer network and system Engineer..

this is the breakdown of the 60points
I am 30yrs :30pts
4yrs work exp:5pts
ielts: 10pts
bachelors degree:15pts

Thats a total of 60points....

Pls correct me if a wrong

First thing you need to do is get accessed with ACS as you can't give urself points in education and work experience until ACS has assessed you for both..
The outcome of their assessment will determine your points for experience and degree.

So right now, you have 30 for age. 10 for English test (that's assuming you have written that).
Also, why don't you try to score higher in your English test?

mamajaz:

I do buy one from glo too, #100 calls for 9 minutes, #200 calls 19+ after subscribing to 777 etc.

You dey there ni? Ela omo kan soso eledumare, Ela n kiri, Ela n soore, omo araye baa binu won pa Ela, won sin Ela, Ela jinde l'ojo meta, Ela goke re orun...
Haaa, you need to see enough oriki from the man that taught us. Those of us that were partially serious would have laughed ourselves into irresistible lacrimation state. It was an interesting course then.

Alphadoor:
DIBP just announced they will be updating the 18th October result shortly...

to see the announcement, you have to login into you skillselect (EOI) page.

Good news peeps, as this means we will know the time ITA will roll out in November.

hope this helps allay our fears.

You're on top of your game man, Gbayi!
