Last updated: 14 November 2025
We’ve scoured the web so that you don’t have to!
We’ve searched and gathered anecdotal reports from forums, social media, and migration platforms to compile this unofficial list of occupations and points for the 189 visa invitation round on 13 November 2025.
This list is not official, and it’s not exhaustive. It’s based solely on what people have publicly shared online. We’ve only included the lowest reported points for each occupation to give a rough indication of what was invited in this round, while we await official stats to be published.
