189 estimates are most reliable; 190 and 491 outcomes depend heavily on state nomination policy, occupation lists, and per-state quotas, which this model does not directly incorporate.

Key Insights for Clinical Psychologist

  • Points are stable. The minimum invited score has remained consistent over recent rounds. Expect similar thresholds in the near future.

  • Still 15 points above the legal minimum. Despite current trends, Clinical Psychologist remains competitive. Applicants significantly below 80 points are unlikely to receive invitations soon.

  • 3 rounds so far in FY25-26. Clinical Psychologist has been included in 3 invitation rounds this financial year. More rounds generally indicate sustained demand from the Department.

Community-reported invitees only — applicants who weren't invited aren't here. Cells with fewer than 5 contributors are hidden for privacy. A portrait of the cohort, not a recipe.

Detailed demographic breakdowns are paused while we finalise a data-licensing arrangement with the upstream community-data source — aggregate counts above remain available.
