January 22, 2016


A total of 2405 EOIs were selected.

This means that 2400 Skilled Independent (sub-class 189) and 5 Skilled Regional (sub-class 489 family sponsored) were invited to apply on 8th January 2016.

If all places are taken up by Subclass 189 visas then there will be no invitations issued for Subclass 489 visas in these occupations:

  • Accountants
  • ICT Business and Systems Analysts
  • Software and Applications Programmers

The highest ranked clients by points score are invited to apply for the relevant visa. For clients who have equal points scores, the time at which they reached their points score for that subclass (referred to as the visa date of effect) determines their order of invitation. Expression of Interest with earlier dates of effect are invited before later dates.
