Is 65 points enough?

65 is the pass mark to lodge an EOI. Many occupations need more to be invited, and some states rank candidates by their own criteria. See our points test guide.

How can I increase my points?

Common options are a higher English score, a NAATI CCL test, a Professional Year, more skilled work experience, a partner with skills or competent English, or state nomination.

Why is my result an estimate?

This calculator simplifies some rules, such as how work experience is counted and assessed. The full test on SkillMigrationAU goes line by line, and an agent can confirm it with your documents.

What if I am 45 or over?

You can’t be invited for the 189, 190 or 491 at 45 or over, but employer sponsored visas may still be possible. See employer options.
