The three largest score bands form a notable concentration without containing a majority of the total. NovenAI calculates that 65 points is the largest score band across Submitted, Lodged and Closed statuses, with 50 EOIs or 18.5 percent of the three-status total. The three largest bands are 65, 75, 70 points, containing 110 EOIs or 40.7 percent. This measures distribution concentration, not an invitation cutoff.

Is the Submitted EOI pool increasing or decreasing?

NovenAI compares Submitted status only. Submitted EOIs increased from 90 in July 2025 to 100 in August 2025, a change of 10 EOIs or approximately 11.1 percent across consecutive monthly snapshots.

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

For August 2025, NovenAI's state aggregation shows that QLD has the largest subclass 190 Submitted count at 60; QLD has the largest subclass 491 Submitted count at 80. 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 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.
