Experience4u:
Like stated, after assessment you will be given positive assessment as MLT code 311213. If you don't want to write the professional exam you can remain an MLT. You can as well apply for nomination with MLT.

If you have the money you can prepare and write the exam in SA or UK or you can write it onshore after getting nomination and Granted.

I need the gurus to advise me. I am a medical doctor in private practice in Nigeria. I decided to relocate this last December so I did the part 1 of the board exam AMC MCQ and passed. I got a job in Australia so I am processing my limited registeration and my employer is sponsoring my TSS visa. I will be eligible for PR only after 3yrs of working with the employer on TSS VISA but I am 41 years this last march. If with this COVID 19, I can't resume earlier than march then by the time I am eligible for PR, I will be 45yrs old which will be the cut off point. I have another route which is to pass the clinical exam as soon as possible and after working for one year then I will be eligible for general registeration. With that I will get 65points immediately and by the time I add my age it is 80 already. With IELTS it will be more than 90. However I don't know wether the job will give me adequate time to read as the job I got is leading me directly to becoming a consultant GP in just 3yrs plus( subject to passing exams through PEP program too) So the last option is where I need advice. I am thinking of applying for PR directly while on TSS visa as a medical and welfare manager for 190subtype. I need vetasses. I started paying myself one million naira monthly salary just two months ago directly from my hospital account ( I am actually doing well in Nigeria in terms of money but I need better life and future for the kids) . So, I want to claim 10yrs experience as a manager using my clinic. But I am the manager and in the form, I need to fill the name of my employer. Should I just arrange a friend to do that? This is not fraud but I just don't know how to do it. The hospital is real. I make profit of more than three million per month so it is not fraud but I heard vetasses will call the employer and I am my employer so that is the problem. I need to get 8 points in IELTS but I know I can do that. My wife needs to get 6 points in IELTs and I think she can do that too. I hope to kick-start the PR visa before travelling on TSS visa so I won't be attached to my employer for the next 5 years. Although the money is good. A rural area with an initial 150k Australia dollars and within 3yrs I should be grossing up to 400k dollars as a VR GP by his grace. I am excited but I also need to secure this PR. If this don't work, them I will have to pass the clinical exam by fire by force before I finish my year 1 under supervision so I can get general registration and apply before 45

Hi guys. To help the people calculating their points better. And to avoid Bellong having to answer too many posts... Pls read carefully

Since the November 2019 change in points, anyone applying newly CANNOT APPLY WITH LESS THAN 90 POINTS FOR visa 190, and visa 189, 85 points for visa 491. People doing ICT, Engineering or Accounting courses will need 95 for visa 189 too.

.... so unless you have the requirements for 491 which mostly includes a job offer, you need to have 90 points to qualify for visa 190. And 90 for visa 189.

Here's an attached pic for march 2020 Australian immigrants points structure.

So.... 65 points iss now a myth. Thank you

I think this is wrong for 190 and 491. That point you are seeing there for 190 is for family sponsored 190 and not for state sponsored stream. State can give you invitation with less than 90 as long as they are sponsoring your occupation and that you meet other requirements; for eg, some require you must have atleast one year job experience, some may state you must have worked in the noc not more than 3 years ago, some 5 years experience, English language requirement like proficient or superior English etc. The conditions are expressly stated in their websites. They state if your noc is eligible for 491 or 190. Lots of provinces doesn't need job offer. It is only NT , that may need a job offer

Though the cut off for 190 family sponsored has not gone below 90 for sometime now,it does not mean it cannot go below that. Qualified ppl should just enter pool as anything can happen.

You can use anzsco search to check the state sponsoring your occupation, their requirement and which visa class they sponsor for your sol

Belong and tunlex01, abeg come and clarify these points ooo.

Experience4u:
Nice plan.
With a positive assessment as MLT, you need to write MLS professional exam in South Africa or UK. You also need to score 20 points from IELTS or PTE so your point can be upto 90. With 90, there is high probability of getting 189.

If you get 189, you can do soft landing and go back to Nigeria. Before your visa expires, you need to come back to Australia and travel back again. But you will need to apply for Resident Return Visa anytime you want to come back to Aussie.

Your question of if the money is good.
YES, the money is good. But all these calculations depends on ASUU and FG as per strike levels.

It is achievable if you put your mind to it.

quote author=Actinium post=90081422]Good day to all members of the forum, I have quite a situation here... I have a degree in Medical Laboratory Science, currently with 2years experience and counting, also I'm currently 28yrs old and also a 100L MBBS student in one of the Federal institutions. I hope to start my Australian PR with AIMS using my MLS degree while still going thru medical school. Now here are my questions;

1. All things being equal, I'll get my PR visa before graduating, can I soft land before my IED and come back to finish up the degree?

2. Will the medical degree be beneficial to me in the long run in Australia since I'll have just little experience by then, because I read getting into practice is not so easy. Tho I hope to write the AMC exams after I settle in.

Your candid advice will be well appreciated.

I don't think your info is exactly correct.
Nomination depends on occupation. Some occupation like Poultry farmer or Fitter can get you nomination at 65 to 75 points while some occupation like ICT Or engineering you will need like 80 to 95 points.

However, by July occupation ceiling will be revised and those occupations on special conditions may be revised back to normal.
