How skills assessments workPoints and other factors
Points sit in set age bands. Confirm the current test before you claim a number.
Competent English is the usual baseline. Proficient or superior English can add points.
Work in the nominated or closely related occupation can add points. Dates have to survive a skills assessment.
Recognised qualifications can add points. The assessing authority decides comparability.
Australian study, specialist education, partner skills or community language may add points.
State nomination (190) or regional nomination (491) can add points. 189 has neither.
