Immigration Act 1987 s13B (3A) (c)

1. An Expression of Interest is current for a period of three months from the date it is submitted to the Pool unless no Pool selection of Expressions of Interest has occurred within that three-month period. Where this is the case, the Expression of Interest is current until such time as a selection from the Pool of Expressions of Interest has occurred.
2. An Expression of Interest that is no longer current will be withdrawn from the Pool.
3. An Expression of Interest will also be withdrawn from the pool if it is rejected after selection because it does not meet prerequisites for entry to the Pool and as a result no invitation to apply has been issued.
