Hi,

I have gathered some info. I want you too go through it.

Attaching following PDFs too.

Steps for submissting EOI via skillselect

(https://skillselect.gov.au/SKILLSELECT/ExpressionOfInterest/PreReg/Start)
Point based Migration Visas info
Skilled occupation list
Step by step info of EOI

Few good sites:

http://migrationblog.immi.gov.au/2013/02/18/top-10-tips-for-submitting-anexpression-of-interest-eoi-in-skillselect/
good point here : Check the monthly reports tab on the SkillSelect web page.
These reports indicate the number of invitations issued for the previous
automatic invitation round. It also gives a breakdown of the number of
invitation issued against each of the occupations on the Skilled Occupation
List. If an occupation has reached its ceiling, or the maximum limit of
invitations that can be issued for that certain occupation, then it is unlikely
that any more automatic invitations will be issued for that occupation during
that program year.

( I got one good question and answer here

If I get exactly 60 points for the Skilled Independent (subclass 189) visa,
how long does it take for my Expression of Interested (EOI) to be approved
(for invitation)?
A. Invitation rounds are currently held twice a month. If you have 60 points at the
moment, then you stand a good chance of being invited in the next couple of
rounds provided your occupation has not reached its yearly invitation ceiling. .

is it possible for SkillSelect to send an acknowledgement automatically

when medical reports are accepted/ assessed successfully?

A. SkillSelect and e-Visa are two separate systems and processes. SkillSelect is the
database for selecting intending migrants for an invitation and e-Visa is where you
lodge your visa. If you want to find out about your medical results you should
contact your case officer or send an enquiry through our contacts page on the
website, www.immi.gov.au

In the SOL PDF you can see assessing authority for each and every skill. For
us I guess we need to query below one. ( address extracted from :
