To clarify, I want to send PTE to immigration. But when I typed "immigration" in the search box, nothing came out.
Try department of home affairs or department of immigration and border patrol. May also be mentioned as DIBP/DHA.

Hi All,
I am not sure who will be able help me out here.
My Fiance is in India and I am in australia on 489FS visa. My partner and I are getting married in December and He has positive skill assessment under Business Analyst. He is trying for both PR and skilled migration which is 489. When he tried to create expression of interest as being his partner I can sponsor him as well for 489 but he cant see the category "Partener" under eligible relation tab.

Also, could someone tell me if he can get invited at 70 or 75 points for Business Analyst and Can he claim partner points?

189= 30(Age)+15(employment)+10(Studies)+10(Toefl) =65
190= 65+5(State Sponsorship)= 70
489= 65+10SS=75

He needs to apply for 489FS, not 489SS, if you want to sponsor him.

Hello Sharry,

I am also in Riyadh & want to have the Polio Certificates. Can you pls. advise how you did it in Riyadh?
Thanks
Sorry for the very late reply, but I dont get updates on my email id. So, I went to a hospital in Olaya, I dont exactly remember the name of the hospital but it was on the name of some Doctor (may be Dr Suleman). But before going there please take there number out of Homeaffairs website and call on that number and note the name of the person and the room where he/she sits. Otherwise, the staff is so much knowledgeable that they will keep bouncing you like a football from one place to another.

My understanding is, you can claim 5 points in 190 (provided the partner meets other criteria), but not in 189.

Is it means that, if I am having 65 points and based on my partners assessment if she will receive 5 points. My total score in EOI (190) will become 65+5+5 ??

Can you please make me understand the concept?

Thanks................

Where is this 2 additional 5's coming from? If you meant 5 for state and 5 for partner's point, then you are correct.

5 points for partner's skill is additional and independent to any other point claim. It is awarded by DHA for 189/190.489FS/489SS, irrespective of visa class or state, if your partner meets the criteria.

Congrats to all who've received grants. I'm seeing some quick 189 direct grants on the forum these days. System seems so random but seems best approach may be front loading all incl medicals before CO contact. Its been 3 months today since i did medicals after CO contact to upload, still nothing :(. Now christmas slowdown

It's been 11 months since mine and I am still waiting.Last contact was when there was a physical verification check done at my office premises but it's been 4 months now an still no contact...

It's so tough waiting till eternity especially when you at times see people getting visa grants faster...Don't know how the process works but it is really very challenging..

Now that Christmas is approaching I am sure another month would passby without me hearing an outcome decision ...

I can just imagine what you're going through right now. We are all in this together. Whey her you've been waiting for a month or a year. It's almost like our lives are in limbo and have no control over what happens and when it will happen. Hang in there. You're turn is coming.

Yes you are correct............ I have counted as 5 points for state and 5 points for partner.

5 points for partner's skill is additional and independent to any other point claim. It is awarded by DHA for 189/190.489FS/489SS, irrespective of visa class or state, if your partner meets the criteria.

Irrespective of yours and your partners skill occupation in different category?? I mean if my occupation is in Medium term and my partners occupation in short term, still shall I claim her points in 189/190?

If you check the post that I replied, you'll have the detailed answer. In short, no, you can't get additional 5 points for 189. For 190, there are debates, I hold the opinion that you can, as long as both are eligible to apply in 190.
 
This is a long thread with lots of replies. For better visibility and response, consider posting in a new thread unless your topic is closely related to the subject of this thread.
Consider before posting:
  • Do not post the same thing in multiple places.
  • No personal contact and/or non-English phrase is allowed.
  • Always post in a relevant thread or open a new one.
  • Better to use the reactions in a post to congratulate/thank.
