Duke1989 Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Thank you for sharing all the valuable information guys, it helps to better understand the process, etc. I submitted on Tuesday (25/07/2017) with 65 points, my plan is to wait a while on 189, and then once I see that "the odds are not in my favor", I'll revert back to 190 @ 70 points...

March2 Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Hi everyone. Just some clarity. With the recent backlogs of visa grants, does that mean that invitations to apply will also be backlogged. Or is ITA separate from actual visa grants. In other words, if grants are backed up by 8 months, does this apply to ITAs also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

March2 Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Thanks @Exxaro that's a bit of a relief. I am just about to send off my documents for skills assessment to AITSL as secondary school teacher. Hopefully by the time that comes back things would have moved for grants. I have 65 points for SC189. ??????? for a positive skills assessment and work experience from AITSL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke1989 Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 (edited) Saw this post on fb, and believe that its relevant to a lot of us. -An update on my situation: Submitted on the 27th of July, got an invite on the 9th of August, just to be informed by my agent that she had made a mistake, thus my invite was a void. Resubmitted on the 14th of August, clinging to the thumbs for the 6th. Edited September 4, 2017 by Duke1989 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
