Calculate your SkillSelect points for Australian skilled migration (Subclass 189, 190, 491). You need at least 65 points to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI).
⚠️ 65 is the minimum to submit an EOI. Competitive scores for invitation are typically 80–90+. Always check current SkillSelect invitation rounds on the Home Affairs website.
While 65 points lets you submit an Expression of Interest (EOI), actual invitations are competitive. Most successful candidates in 2026 have 80–100+ points for the independent skilled visa (189).
