My husband and I have decided to immigrate to Australia and after so much research and COVID-19 restrictions info, we find ourselves needing some guidance from this forum regarding our EOI application.
I have been religiously following all the news arounds the Budget Update and its Impact on Skilled Visas and thanks to user TeeTMI , I have seen her latest post on the allocations.
What I would like to know is, would it be wise to submit an Expression of Interest for a State Sponsored 190 Visa, now during this time, as all the info I see says that the government will prioritise 'critical skills', and occupations that will assist with Australia's COVID recovery. Both My occupation (PR/Communications Specialist) and my Husbands occupation( IT Field Technician) are not on the critical list and want to know if we would stand any chance of possibly being nominated by a state in the next few months even?
I have done some of the leg work in terms of gathering my documents for the skills assessment and the booking for the language test but once all that is done and ready for our EOI, when would be the ideal time to submit to stand a better chance of being selected. Also when is the next round for the EOI's?
Thanks would greatly appreciate any help or links to where I can find the right info.
