ImmiTrendImmiTrendEvery round, we freeze a public prediction before it happens — then grade it against the official results. This page is the ledger.
Based on SkillSelect data as at 30 September 2026
Next 189 round (expected by 31 October 2026): we predict a cut-off of 85 points for most occupations, 80 for most health and education occupations and 65 for construction trades, based on the SkillSelect EOI pool as at 30 September 2026 plus one month of new EOIs at the recent pace and a round of 8,400–9,400 invitations. Find your occupation in the prediction table on this page.
72/125 official cutoffs in range — see breakdownSave your occupation → get your verdict
Based on the SkillSelect EOI pool as at 30 September 2026, plus one month of new EOIs added at the pace of the last three monthly snapshots, because the round is expected a month after the snapshot; new EOIs rank behind existing ones at the same score and ahead of lower scores. The cut-off is predicted from the size of the round, 8,400–9,400 invitations, applied to that projected pool; occupation ceilings act as a cap, not a target, and only stop an occupation that has used its places. Tested blind on the five past rounds we can check (without the inflow step): exact for 63% of the occupations it predicted, within 5 points for 92%. How we check our predictions →
Predicted cut-off and date of effect for the next 189 round, from the 9 Oct 2026 freeze. Ranges run from a round of 8,400 to 9,400 invitations.
You are expected to be invited if your score is above the minimum, or equal to it with a date of effect on or before the date shown.
Cut-offs if a round invited 10 to 1,000 people in your occupation — a what-if tool, not the prediction.

Each row compares the same group across the two freezes. One input changed: one month of new EOIs, at the pace of the last three monthly snapshots, was added to the 30 September 2026 pool for a round expected a month later. Groups close to their ceiling move most, because new higher-scoring EOIs take their remaining places.
We re-ran the new method blind on every past round we can check, using only data available before each round, and compared it with the previous method.
Each cell: share predicted exactly · share within 5 points · average error in points.
Across all five rounds: exact for 63% of the occupations it predicted, within 5 points for 92%, average error 2.4 points.
Limits: only five rounds can be checked (SkillSelect keeps 24 months of EOI data); the previous method could not be tested on 2024 rounds because 2024-25 occupation ceilings were never published; four of the five rounds use monthly data without dates of effect. The first pre-published test is the round expected by 31 October 2026.
Vs official June cutoffs: mean absolute error 3.6 pts · 87% within 5 pts · essentially unbiased (-0.1)
Measured across the 125 occupations we predicted and the official round invited.

Community-reported cutoffs are unofficial and may differ from the official figures. † Invitation counts are estimates — the active EOI queue includes backlogged applications.
† This round's prediction was computed from the pre-round EOI snapshot but logged after the round happened, not frozen in advance. Rounds from FY 2026-27 onward are frozen before the round runs.
Know a more exact cut-off score or Date of Effect for an occupation? Send us the details via feedback — thank you!
Data-driven scenarios from the latest SkillSelect EOI snapshot as at 30 September 2026. These are ImmiTrend model estimates, not official predictions. Source: Department of Home Affairs / SkillSelect.
The subclass 189 independent skilled visa is allocated through SkillSelect invitation rounds. EOIs are ranked by total points score (highest first), with Date of Effect (earliest first) breaking ties at the same score. For the next round we predict each occupation's cut-off from the size of the round and today's EOI pool, treating occupation ceilings as a cap, not a target. Each prediction carries a confidence label from a cross-check, and the method was backtested blind on five past rounds.
The explorer below is a what-if tool: it ranks all active EOIs by points (then DOE) and finds the threshold at each round size you choose. Raising your points generally improves your rank; if a points change updates your DOE, the new DOE is later but only orders EOIs within the same score.
