General Event 03 Jun 2025
Subclass 491 · WA · 105 pts
My EOI was expiring already, I submitted a new one with the same points as WA SNMP office told me to do so and update them via email which I did already. But after getting a nomination approval they said they can't find my EOI (obviously that was expired) and then I again called them and emailed them containing new EOI with same points so they can process my ITA.

Expected visa grant
Onshore Non-PriorityIndustrial Engineer lodged Subclass 491 on 29 Jun 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.
Direction 122 started on 19 September 2026, so these estimates currently rely on data from before the change. We expect to need 4–6 weeks of data under the new rules, until around the end of October, for estimates to stabilise and reflect the new processing patterns. Treat them as provisional until then.
