Skilled migration points calculator

The points test is public arithmetic. This works it out line by line and shows the rule behind every score, so you can check it - and so can your agent.

This calculator is information, not immigration assistance

VisaBid is not a migration agency and cannot advise you. Only a registered migration agent or an Australian legal practitioner may give immigration assistance. Points, charges and processing times shown here are general information drawn from published sources and may be out of date or wrong for your circumstances. Nothing here is a prediction of any outcome.

Points are not eligibility

You also need a positive skills assessment in an occupation on the relevant list, to meet health and character requirements, and to be invited in a round that reaches your score. Plenty of people with 90 points wait a long time, and plenty with 65 never get invited at all. What a score is genuinely useful for is deciding whether it is worth paying for advice yet.
