Need help from Australia immigration experts..
I got an invite from Skillselect further to my claim of 70 points in EOI. Of this 70 points, 15 is towards 8 years’ work experience in a closely related occupation. In my mind & as per the work I performed, the work exp claimed is fully relevant. But, am worried about making my visa application based on this invite as I don’t know whether DIAC will consider the 8 years as relevant. The assessing authority hasn’t given any opinion on my work experience as they’ve just said that “atleast 1 work experience is highly relevant” as that was the minimum requirement. Now my queries are as below:
1. If DIAC / Case officer (CA) do not accept the 8 years’ experience resulting in reduction of points from 70, what will happen to my visa application? Will they refuse visa & the charges paid will be non-refundable?
2. Can I just forget the existing invite & file a duplicate EOI with just 60 points, so that this risk is not there?
3. Is it legally allowed to file a second EOI for same person, same visa type? Of course, the chances of getting invite are little less.
Please guide.
