Hey @gregormendel,

Iโ€™m hoping you might be able to help with some advice. I lodged my EOI for the 190 visa (Early Childhood Teacher) from Victoria on the 14th of February and updated it on the 17th of March with some new info. I also updated my ROI for Victoria around the same time. I was hoping to get an invite in the last two rounds (18th March and 8th April), but havenโ€™t received anything yet. Iโ€™ve got 85 points (including state points) and have Superior English. Iโ€™m also currently working in my occupation as an Early Childhood Teacher, so Iโ€™m a bit confused. Iโ€™ve seen others with lower points and Proficient English getting invited, and some not even working in their nominated occupation at all, which has me wondering why mine hasnโ€™t come through yet. I know Victoriaโ€™s quota seems to be nearly exhausted, but Iโ€™m still a bit anxious, especially since the SkillSelect allocations havenโ€™t been updated since 28th February. Also, Iโ€™m curious if thereโ€™s any chance of a surprise round from Victoria, or if the 189 round might have any surprises left this year. Do you think we can expect any further rounds, or maybe some updates soon?

Would really appreciate any thoughts or insights you have! Thanks in advance. Cheers.
