International student graduated in Australia now need to score at least 85 points on Skill Select while they submit their Expression of Interest (EOI) to be hopeful of getting an invitation to apply Australian permanent residency visa 189. Invitation round on 11 November 2019 result outcome makes it clear candidates who have point score below 85 on their EOI may not get an invitation to apply for 189-visa in the near future. The point scores and date of effect cut off for the pro-rata occupations shows a green signal for 85 plus points scorers for an invitation in next couple of invitation rounds. Many engineering and information technology occupation’s log seems not that long for 85 points. But, accounting professionals would suffer the most.

Sixty-five invitations sent to 90 pointers, 45 candidates claimed 95 points on Skill Select were invited on November round. Interestingly ten candidates claimed 100 points on Skill Select, also secured invitation for Australian permanent residency visa on the same round. The recent Department of Home Affairs statistics confirmed scoring 100 points on Skill Select is not the impossible thing as many of us think. The number of candidates claiming 100 points on Skill Select has been mounting than the last couple of invitation rounds.
The November 2019 round only invited 250 candidates to apply for a 189-subclass visa, and this is the Australian permanent residency visa. It’s a dramatic drop than October 2019 round. On October round the DHA has invited 1500 candidates to apply for 189-visa. During July to November this year, DHA has invited 2950 candidates altogether.
