Estimate your points for skilled migration
Australia's points-tested skilled visas use a points test to rank applicants. These are the Skilled Independent (subclass 189), Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) and Skilled Work Regional (subclass 491) visas. This calculator gives you an estimate of your score, based on factors such as your age, English language ability, skilled employment, qualifications, Australian study, and partner skills or state nomination. Use your estimate to understand where you stand and to see which factors could raise your score, such as improving your English test result or gaining more skilled work experience. Meeting the minimum points threshold does not guarantee an invitation. In many occupations, applicants are invited only with scores well above the minimum. It takes about 5 minutes to complete. Bring your results to your consultation, and we can discuss your occupation, your chances of an invitation and the best pathway for you. This calculator provides an estimate only. It does not determine eligibility and is not legal advice. Points are assessed by the Department of Home Affairs based on your evidence at the time of invitation, and the rules change regularly.

A partner visa application is about more than paperwork. It tells the story of your relationship. This guide helps you gather the key information before you meet with our lawyers, so your consultation can focus on your options and the strongest way to present your application. The guide asks a series of questions about you, your partner and your relationship. These cover how and when you met, whether you are married or in a de facto relationship, your living arrangements, and your immigration history. It then gives you a checklist of documents and information that are commonly needed. It also highlights issues that may need closer attention, such as previous visa refusals, a short relationship or time spent living apart. It takes about 10 minutes to complete. You can bring the results to your consultation or send them to us beforehand. This guide does not determine eligibility and is not legal advice. Every relationship and application is different. For advice about your situation, please book a consultation.
