Questions answered by this monthly evidence

How concentrated is the subclass 189 EOI score distribution for Stonemason?

More than half of the three-status total is concentrated in the three largest score bands. NovenAI calculates that 65 points is the largest score band across Submitted, Lodged and Closed statuses, with 30 EOIs or 50.0 percent of the three-status total. The three largest bands are 65, 100, 75 points, containing 50 EOIs or 83.3 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 October 2025, NovenAI's state aggregation shows that VIC has the largest subclass 190 Submitted count at 30; NSW has the largest subclass 491 Submitted count at 20. 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 7 available snapshots and 4 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.
