User Message:

Hi, my name is Chakshul Patel. I have received a positive skill assessment for the occupation 342315 – Electronic Instrument Trades Worker (Special Class). I would like to know what are the current chances for receiving an invitation under subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated), 491 (Skilled Work Regional), and 189 (Skilled Independent) visas for this occupation In VIC Or NSW. Kindly advise on the most suitable pathway and any suggestions for improving my prospects. Thanks Chakshul Patel

Thanks for your message, Chakshul. Your occupation — 342315: Electronic Instrument Trades Worker (Special Class) — is a strong trade occupation with good demand and very low competition in the current skilled migration landscape. That gives you an advantage compared to more saturated professions. Both VIC and NSW have invited candidates in this occupation previously, especially under the 491 visa. The 190 is also possible if you’re working in your nominated occupation within the state, but the 189 pathway might be slightly slower due to federal-level backlog. I’ll be explaining the backlog figures and live trends for your occupation in my next live session, so stay tuned. In the meantime — are you currently working in this occupation in Australia, or are you overseas?
