Default Antic's Australian Immigration Experiences

Purely based on the TCG post, I'm assuming that Antic applied as an independent skilled migrant. In doing so, he is claiming that he will be an economic benefit to Australia. How so?
If he applied as a skilled independent he made a very foolish mistake. His PR Visa would have been virtually guaranteed if he had applied in the Distinguished Talent category.

That is my understanding as well Elmir. The last I heard of it, Antic wrote a letter to the Dept of Immigration expressing his discontent after his bid for Permament Residency in Australia had already failed.

What I fail to understand is why he tried applying for a permanent residence visa in the 'skilled' category when he presumably could have applied in the permanent resident category of 'distinguished talent' with a much greater chance of success.

Are you GM Antic? I thought your name was Elmir!

Anyway, yes, applying under this category would mean you would need someone in the ACF to provide you with a nomination.
