To relocate to Australia as a skilled worker under any of the three most popular visa categories, candidates must meet several eligibility requirements. Most importantly, they must score at least 65 points based on the varied selection factors of the Australia Immigration Points Calculator. However, simply scoring 65 points and meeting other criteria does not guarantee visa approval.

Only the highest-scoring candidates, who can score enough points to meet or exceed a specific point cut-off, receive invitations to apply for the visa, during invitation rounds held by the Australian Department of Home Affairs. The point cut-off for each invitation round can vary. So, while it is not always possible to accurately predict the cut-off, candidates can and should try to score as many points as possible – in order to increase their chances of receiving an invitation.
To claim the maximum possible points for PR in Australia, candidates can follow some simple tips:
Apply while within the age group of 25 to 32 years old.
Demonstrate Superior English language skills by appearing (or reappearing) for an approved English proficiency test.
Gain more years of work experience – within and/or outside Australia. The highest points are available to those who have 8 or more years of experience in Australia or in another country.
Attain a higher academic qualification. For instance, those who have a Bachelor degree can pursue a Doctorate degree to gain higher points.
Candidates who are unmarried gain extra points. If the candidate has a spouse or de-facto partner, points can be claimed for the partner’s skills. Points can also be claimed if the partner is an Australian citizen or permanent resident.
Those who are unable to meet the 65 point requirement can choose to apply through the state nomination visas – and gain points for being nominated for these visas by an Australian state/territory.
The PR calculator Australia also allocates points based on certain adaptability factors that make the candidate more employable in the country’s labor market. These include:
• Obtaining a Doctorate degree or a Masters degree by research from an Australian academic institution – by completing at least two years of study in a relevant ICT or STEM field.
• Obtaining a degree, diploma or trade qualification from an Australian academic institution that satisfies the Australia study requirement.
• Obtaining a degree, diploma or trade qualification from an Australian academic institution that satisfies the Australia study requirement – while studying and residing in an eligible regional area of Australia.
• Showcasing a recognized qualification in any of Australia’s credentialed community languages.
• Completing a professional year in Australia
