Dear friends,

Say I am applying for a 189 Visa coming Jan '18 with 65 Points overall, two months down the line while it's still in the queue my years of experience gets updated and I get 5 Points for that.

Now my overall point is 70.

The question is, will I be given preference over someone with 70 who applied later than me or I am again starting from scratch since my points got upgraded?

First priority is points, then date of effect

Date of Effect is the date my points got upgraded or the date I applied ?

DOE changes with points change. So it will be the date when your points change

Thanks Sharma.

In other words, I can choose to wait till I get 70 and then apply in EOI. Looking at the trend for ICT Business Analyst role, there is no chance for 65 pointers anyway. What do you say?

Apply EOI ASAP. If your points increase due to employment , then it will automatically get updated.
Just keep the current company "To Date" as blank.
