Thank you for the very informative video. Where could I get the statistics on previous rounds of invitations for each state as you showed in the video please? Thanks so much.

NSW has just made it worse tbh - I meet the minimum criteria still no invitie (Onshore ICT BA 100 pts 2yrs work ek NSW 190)

Hi Karl, Thank you so much for these detailed insights. I have not seen anyone else doing such a deep dive into a specific occupation group on KZfaq for everyones' interest. I need your advice on below. Context - I am an ICT professional with EOI lodged with 261312 (Developer Programmer) ANZSCO. I am sitting on (90+5) points score, currently onshore on TSS 482 in NSW - arrived in Syd a month back. Expecting to get another 5 points added by first fortnight of Feb (for onshore 1yr experience i.e. prior 7 months in 2020 + Sep-Feb 2022 5 months = 12 months). This should make me eligible with all NSW 190 requirements. Quick queries - 1. The 6 months "Residence" criteria is immediate last 6 months at either NSW or onshore; OR is it total contiunous 6 months in NSW (irrespective of the year where I stayed in NSW i.e. year 2020). 2. I will start losing score for age again by Apr 2022 (will become 33 yrs). By when the points claims should be proven - is it when we get nomination from NSW or till nomination approval or is it at the time of invitation to apply for visa? Also, do you think I might get an invitation for 190 from NSW during that Feb to Apr 2022 period, realistically? Thanks in advance! Note - 1. I may not be able to score any higher points as I am already holding superior English score, CCL/ NAATI score and ACS skills assessment done! 2. My stay in Syd was for 7 continuous months in year 2020. Now I'm again on TSS 482 in Sydney.

Hi Karl, your video has been insightful and educational on the immigration aspect of Australia. I respect the transparency you provide of the process. What do you think of an onshore system analyst with 90 points for 189 or 95 for 190? Applied for VIC but looking into other states now.

Thank you for the video,What about the compitition of medical technician(3211) professions??

It has been a tough time for all of us onshore. Many of us are waiting, at the same time paying tax yet locked out from gov benefits such as Medicare, house loan, job opportunities etc.

Hi can you please tell me the chance of getting invited for 491 visa in Victoria at 70 points for ICT support technician. I work in same occupation in regional Victoria

Hi Karl, Thank you so much for your information. I already have my skill assessment based on my qualification and PY as a system analyst. I was wondering if I need to get a new skill assessment for my 1-year work experience again to claim 5 points?

Hi Karl, Thank you very much for your helpful videos. I just wanted to know does 4 years validation for Professional Year count from PY course start date or graduation date? Thank you.

Hi Karl, could you please make a video about get the residency trough a business. I read that you can start a business in a regional area and having for more than 2 years and you can get a temporary residence. Could you please confirm that information? By the way, I was talking about QLD. Thanks

Hi Karl, any idea where the additional quota of 35k of immigration is allocated? Because none of the visa types have received any revised Numbers yet

Thank you for the insight Karl, do you think a petition would be helpful? Maybe creating one such that NSW create a pathway to PR for International Students? This may also be helpful for your channel. Let me know what you think.

Hey Karl . you are absolutely right. I am a offshore Network and System Engineer waiting since long , although I have 85 points 491 visa. Still eagerly waiting but nothing substantial.

Hi Karl, please help me choose my specialisation in IT from UOS considering that i have 2 year experience in cybersecurity already, let me know if your advice would be cybersecurity , because in UOS , for the course Ms in IT and IT management cybersecurity seems to be less in the topics of teaching

Hi Karl, I am ICT graduate working in the same field and just completed ACS professional year. I will be applying ACS skill assessment using my professional year. So can I claim points for my work experience before being skill assessed by ACS? Thanks

Can we expect this to get extended "Unrestricted work rights for student visa holders to end on 30 June 2023"?

A Developer here with 90 points, waiting for almost 2 years, and still nothing. I have PTE 85, CCL, and every other possible point for an offshore applicant. The problem is not the points, the problem is that there are just a few invitations being issued for us (just a couple 491 by SA and WA). It is like they do not need IT guys since our jobs can be done remotely. Can you and other migration agents email DHA and other related authorities and speak for us?

For 189 visas, does being onshore or offshore makes a difference if you have the same points

Can you please make a video on best occupations for pr in Australia other than health/medical related occupations

Hi Karl, whats the chances of a regional NSW Bachelor of IT interactive media graduate last Aug 22 , having a full time job on related field to have a shortest pathway to PR. Please advice. Tnx

Hi Karl, Thanks for the video. It was pretty informative. I have an Australian Bachelor Degree (ICT Major) from Federation University. And a total of 6 Years of Offshore Experience Only AS Software Engineer and currently working under same position. How many years will be deducted for skill assessment by ACS?

Hi Karl, Thanks for providing regular updates and this kind of info really helps. So, what do you think of offshore ICT Support Engineer with 75 points including state nomination for 190 or 85 for 491? What do you suggest?

Hi Karl, any ideas why civil engineers are hardly invited? Thx!

Hi AMEC, what's your view for offshore candidates into WA? Trades

what to do mate 90 points with ccl and superior English onhsore, but still no luck waiting for a year. Nothing seems to be working out..

I want to migrate to Australia in subclass 189. My highest academic qualification is Bachelor. So is there need to attach Secondary and Higher Secondary certificates/Marksheet or any other documents of relevant field?

Hi Karl my ACS assessment is expiring in 1 month..Should I reapply it as I am waiting for 190 victoria invitation from offshore..Any advice will be really helpful..thanks

Hi Karl is 75+5 point for visa 190 is no chance right?

Can software engineers get pr with 80 points in next 189 invitation round

At this point I feel like sponsorship is the only way for onshore ICT professionals like us

What are the chances for Software Tester with 75 points for 190 vic?

I don't agree. ICT or Software is highly sought after. You cannot tell someone not to go into ICT. There are not enough good software engineers. World Wide. Maybe not to get invited but overall, Engineering is a great profession.

VIC 190: software engineer with 80+5 points I am not too sure about my chances but I would like to get your opinion on my chances of getting selected? Also I wanted to know how VIC selection process.

Govt get benefits (choose the best) After selection candidates vise versa Govt should change this mentality to avoid future huge labour/skill shortage.

Is this only for nsw?

Again got email from victoria that not selected for this round

How about offshore Mechanical Engineer?

🥺🥺🥺🥺

Thanks for the video. What are my chances to get invited for 190 at WA through graduate stream with 85 points? I have a bachelor degree in ICT and currently working as a software engineer. Only 3 months left on my visa 🥲
