Frequently asked questions

How many Australia PR points does a 32-year-old with competent English get?

With a diploma or trade qualification, competent English and 3-4 years of overseas experience, a single applicant aged 32 scores 55 points for subclass 189.

Is 65 points enough for an invitation?

65 is only the minimum to lodge an Expression of Interest. Invitation rounds rank candidates and many occupations need considerably more, so treat higher scores as safer.
