The three largest score bands form a notable concentration without containing a majority of the total.

The three largest bands are 65, 70, 75 points, containing 1,298 EOIs or 49.5 percent. This measures distribution concentration, not an invitation cutoff.

Is the Submitted EOI pool increasing or decreasing?

A complete earlier comparison is unavailable, so NovenAI does not publish a change conclusion for this snapshot.

Which states lead the subclass 190 and 491 Submitted EOI data?

For January 2025, NovenAI's state aggregation shows that NSW has the largest subclass 190 Submitted count at 741; WA has the largest subclass 491 Submitted count at 871. These are EOI volumes, not state nomination allocations, invitation outcomes or an individual's likelihood of invitation.

How does NovenAI standardise and interpret SkillSelect EOI data?

NovenAI standardises the official data by occupation, visa subclass, status, score band, state and snapshot month. This report covers 1 available snapshots and 15 subclass 189 score bands with data. When the official source suppresses a cell below 20, NovenAI uses 10 as the analytical estimate, so the results are not exact application-by-application counts.
