Subclass 189 invitation rounds have paused since 7 November 2024, so a wait estimate can't be reliably projected while rounds are paused. The queue figures above are current; the wait will depend on when rounds resume.

"Met the cut-off" counts how many of the last 4 subclass-189 rounds your points would have been at or above the round's minimum.

Figures describe observed invitation rounds and the current EOI pool — indicative only, not migration advice.

189 rank can be estimated from points and DOE; 190 and state/territory-nominated 491 are selected by each jurisdiction under its own policy and priorities, so a national EOI queue rank doesn't apply.

Key Insights for Management Accountant

  • ↓

    Points are easing. The minimum invited score has moved from 100 to 95 over the past 3 rounds — this can reflect round size, occupation allocation or EOI pool changes.

  • ⚠

    Still 30 points above the EOI minimum. Despite easing, Management Accountant remains competitive. Applicants significantly below 95 points are unlikely to receive invitations soon.

  • ℹ

    1 round so far in FY25-26. Management Accountant has been invited in 1 invitation round this financial year. The round count alone doesn't indicate future demand or guarantee invitations.
