What the evidence says

Pool composition

Submitted represents 36.8 percent of the three-status total, which is less than half of the selected-status total. NovenAI keeps it separate from the combined measure that includes Closed records.

State signals

The largest Submitted EOI state totals are 190: NSW 40; 491: WA 70. These are not nomination allocations or invitation probabilities.

Questions answered by this monthly evidence

How concentrated is the subclass 189 EOI score distribution for Carpenter and Joiner?

The three largest score bands form a notable concentration without containing a majority of the total. NovenAI calculates that 70 points is the largest score band across Submitted, Lodged and Closed statuses, with 30 EOIs or 15.8 percent of the three-status total. The three largest bands are 70, 80, 75 points, containing 70 EOIs or 36.8 percent. This measures distribution concentration, not an invitation cutoff.

Is the Submitted EOI pool increasing or decreasing?

NovenAI compares Submitted status only. Submitted EOIs decreased from 90 in April 2025 to 70 in May 2025, a change of 20 EOIs or approximately 22.2 percent across consecutive monthly snapshots.

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

For May 2025, NovenAI's state aggregation shows that NSW has the largest subclass 190 Submitted count at 40; WA has the largest subclass 491 Submitted count at 70. 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 5 available snapshots and 11 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.
