Australia hub FAQ

What score do I need for a 189/190/491 invitation?

The statutory pass mark is 65 points, but recent SkillSelect rounds for ICT, Engineering and Nursing have invited at 85–95+. State nomination (190) and regional sponsorship (491) effectively add +5 and +15 points.

How does the NAATI CCL test work?

Two 20-minute recorded dialogues between English and Bengali speakers; you interpret each segment. Pass mark is 63/90 — and it adds 5 migration points without needing the full NAATI certification.

When can I apply for Australian citizenship?

After 4 years of lawful residence (1,460 days) including 12 months as a permanent resident, with no more than 365 days absent overall and 90 days in the final year. Track your exact numbers above.
