Audit your points claim before relying on it

A calculator adds selections. It cannot decide whether your documents satisfy the legal definition behind each selection.

Use this five-part check for every category

1. Rule: locate the current official points wording.
2. Relevant date: identify whether the rule applies at EOI, invitation or application.
3. Evidence: identify the document that proves the claim.
4. Limits: check caps, mutually exclusive categories and subclass restrictions.
5. Change: update the EOI if a claim becomes inaccurate.

High-risk claims to verify carefully

• employment dates and whether work is skilled and closely related;
• partner age, English and skills-assessment conditions;
• Australian study and designated regional study;
• test type, test date and all English components; and
• nomination or sponsorship points that depend on an actual pathway outcome.

Do not convert a threshold into a forecast

Sixty-five is the current minimum points threshold. Invitation outcomes vary. Use dated official invitation information for context and never represent a score as a guaranteed result.
