Expected visa grant

Onshore Non-Priority

Electrical Engineer lodged Subclass 491 on 07 Jan 2025

About this estimate: Level 1 (priority occupations) and level 2 (onshore non-priority) each use grant samples from their own group.

Levels 3 and 4 (offshore non-priority) use a combined sample set because many past grant profiles do not say whether the person applied alone or with a partner or family. Combining them gives us more data for a stable estimate. Priority levels follow Direction 122.

About me

I came to Australia to pursue for my Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering. In 2022 I finished my degree and graduated in Dec 2022. I started working in my nominated occupation from Nov 2022 until now. Currently I’m living in Newcastle and it’s been more 6 months I moved from Sydney just to have more chance for 190 or 491 invitation. I lodged my EOI on 25th November 2023.
