Can I put my Bachelors degree (4 years) qualification from overseas in my EOI application? I completed my Masters of IT in Australia. Should I just include my Australian Masters degree? I'm confused
"The nominated occupation is not associated with this assessing authority". I'm getting this error when i'm trying to select skill assessment details. It doesn't show me any select field near the nominated occupation. (I dont see the box for the ANZSCO code selection.) What do I do
Hi Nick. I have read about some regions warning against multiple submissions of EOIs, even when submitted separately. For instance, according to Victoria, “You can only have 1 active ROI submitted at any time. You cannot submit a separate ROI for each subclass. If you wish to change the subclass or anything else on your ROI, you must withdraw the existing ROI and submit a new ROI.” What do you suggest, please?
I have skill assessment as an electrical drafter with engineers Australia, but my job experience at the moment is related to the technical field. Can this affect the visa 491 that I want to apply?. Thanks.
Work experience in an unrelated field, may not be able to be counted. I would recommend discussing your situation with a registered migration agent. You can book into this through our website
Thanks for the detailed guide, I have a accounting bachelor degree which was accepted by CPA Australia for skill assessment. Also, I have completed chartered accounting qualification. Can i add my CA qualification in education list (CPA skill assessment is not based on CA) ? if i can include what is the type of education can be selected from the dropdown list?
Great Video!! Left me with a question tho. If after submitting EOI I somewhat manage to get more points (like imprvoing english level) can I update it and claim more points? Or should I submit a new one?
Thanks for the video, I have 2 questions: 1. Is PY required if I have 1 year of work expereince? 2. How do I get the skill assessment from the relevant accessing body?
Can I use the same email address for multiple EOI’s or is that a no-no?

Hi nick, I have been working as a trade assistant since I got my skill assessment 3 years ago, but got my certificate just last month, so that means that I just get point with experience from the day that I got my certificate, Right? Another question if I apply for 186 and the company bankruptcy do I have to apply from the beginning?
Hi Nick and Pathway To Aus, is it possible not to get points for employment after relevant skill assessment with 6yrs overseas and 1yr in Australia. Somehow at the end of the application it appeared the employement points was not added to my points. What could be the reason?
Dear I submitted one EOI for 189, 190 (multiple states) and 491 In September 2022 but I heard it's required to submit separate EOI for each state for 190. I can't understand why it's required if skills select website is accepting all in one shot. Now if I was wrong what shall I do shall I withdraw one come Eoi and submit separate? Please advise?
I’m currently on a student visa, which limits me to 24 hours of work per week. I’m planning to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) for a 190 visa in Western Australia. I’ve been working for my employer for over a year, and they are interested in offering me a full-time contract. However, they are concerned about how long they would have to wait until I obtain full-time work rights. My question is: if I receive a state nomination from WA, will I gain full work rights immediately upon applying for the 190 visa, or would I need to wait until the visa is granted, which could take 1 or 2 years? If full work rights are not granted until the visa approval, it might not make sense for companies to offer a contract if they have to wait that long. However, according to the information on the state nomination website, the full-time contract start date must be within 3 months of the state nomination application. From this, I understand that within this timeframe, I would submit the EOI, receive an invitation, and apply for the 190 visa, which would then allow me to start my full-time contract on time while waiting for the visa grant. Can you help me with this please?
Hi mate, until you have received you new visa grant, your work rights will stay the same as your previous visa. Alternatively, there may be other visa (such as 482) that can have you work full time. Speak with our migration agents to know what visa applies. You can book a consultation here pathwaytoaus.com/book-a-consultation/
Hi Nick, I don’t want to claim any work experience points, can i leave work experience section blank if all the work I did was non relevant to my nominated occupation.
If I have no kids and only my spouse is included in the application. How should I answer the question "Are there any family members the client would like to include in a future application"? Shall I say yes and add 1, or say no, since I already mentioned my spouse in the previous question?
Hi Nick, I have finished a diploma in hospitality after cert iv in cookery. Can I claim work experience from the date I finished my diploma as I was working full-time then as a chef or do I have to claim from JRP start date for EOI? Thanks in advance
Great question. I believe it is post Cert IV. If you want to discuss your situation in detail, I would recommend you book in for a consultation with a registered migration agent

Hi Nick, Hi i am lodging an EOI. And in employment section i have one query. I am still working at same company. should i leave Date To blank or end date which is written in acs that is 04/09/2023?
Hi there! We feel like you would benefit in speaking with our migration team directly to get advise on your situation. You may visit pathwaytoaus.com/book-a-consultation/ to book a consultation!
I think your advice is wrong, tell me if i'm wrong but.. Vetassess (the trades recognition company for sparkies) states that: Licensed Trades - 6 years' employment experience (with no formal training) Licensed Trades - 4 years' employment experience (with relevant formal training) And you say you need 4 years of experience post apprenticeship, that would mean if you done a four year apprenticeship here in England you would then need to work a further 4 years so 8 years in total to be eligible from what you're saying, yet somebody with no qualifications is eligible after 6 years?? doesn't make sense to me.. Im an electrician from England looking to get my 189 visa
What did you put donw on your EOI mate? Because I think you are absolutely right, I have finished my trads assesment, and the duration of the apprenticeship itself, counts as work experience. So 2 years apprentice + 2 years of work after = 4 years experience needed.

They have put the number depending on how many kids they got Could you please let me know what should I fill in the EOI? Is it 1? Because I want to include my husband?
I don't want to claim points for my overseas bachelor, so do I need to mention it under, other non AQF accredited options? Because that is the only option which is not letting me claim points

Hi I am planning to submit my EOI for south Australia under a family sponsorship -491 skill visa. As SA ROI is closed can I still submit the EOI? Do we still submit the EOI in skill select or SA website?
You can always submit an EOI, but I don't believe you can lodge an ROI for family sponsored with SA Migration. I think state sponsored is far more likely if you meet the requirements.
