🔹 Check the latest NSW skilled migration program requirements. 🔹 Review the relevant NSW Skills List and occupation eligibility. 🔹 Ensure your SkillSelect Expression of Interest (EOI) is accurate and up to date. 🔹 Verify your English test results, skills assessment and employment evidence. 🔹 Ensure you can substantiate every claim in your EOI with valid supporting documents.

Are you waiting for an Australian Skilled Independent visa (Subclass 189) invitation? Preliminary points scores are being shared across migration community groups following the expected invitation round on 15 October 2026.

Our latest community-reported snapshot compares selected onshore and offshore reported scores across different occupations, including Actuary, Architect, Agricultural Consultant, Carpenter, Chemical Engineer, Chemist, Food Technologist and other professions.

Victorian Points Test 2026–27: What Skilled Migrants Need to Know 🇦🇺

Planning to apply for Australian Skilled Migration through Victoria? The Victorian Points Test (VPT) is an important part of the state nomination selection process for eligible applicants seeking the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) or the Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 491).

Victoria uses the VPT to rank Registrations of Interest (ROIs) based on seven key factors:

✅ Age ✅ English language proficiency ✅ Work experience in your nominated occupation ✅ Educational qualifications ✅ Occupation skill level ✅ Partner skills, where eligible ✅ Annual earnings from eligible skilled employment in Victoria

How does the Victorian Points Test work?

Victoria may select candidates through two pathways:

Most Competitive: ROIs ranked highly across eligible occupations.

Priority Industry: Highly ranked ROIs within designated priority industries or industry subgroups.

Important: The VPT has no fixed pass mark. A higher ranking does not guarantee an invitation or Victorian state nomination. Applicants must also satisfy the applicable Victorian nomination criteria and Australian Government visa requirements.

The VPT ranking system is separate from the federal SkillSelect points test. Meeting the federal points threshold alone does not guarantee Victorian nomination.

If you are considering Victoria state nomination for subclass 190 or subclass 491, review your occupation, English proficiency, qualifications and work experience before planning your migration pathway.

📌 Program update: Check the official Live in Melbourne website for the latest 2026–27 program opening information and eligibility requirements before submitting a Registration of Interest.
