Total Invitation
Point distribution among the invitees*
Lowest point that got lucky (Non-prorata)
Invitation statistics for high demand occupations
Due to large numbers of EOIs being received for the below occupations, DIBP decided to invite on a pro rata basis for these occupations over the 2017-18 program year. However, this process can be changed if the situation demands. SkillSelect first allocates available places to Skilled – Independent (subclass 189) visas and then remaining to Skilled – Regional (subclass 489) (Provisional – Family Sponsored) visas. If all places are taken up by subclass 189 visas then there will be no invitations issued for subclass 489 visas in these occupations.
| Visa Subclass | Number |
| Skilled - Independent (subclass 189) | 300 |
| Skilled - Regional Provisional (subclass 489) | 5 |
