In fact, they follow two completely different logic systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">1. Subclass 189: National Ranking Competition<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">The 189 Skilled Independent Visa is a state-independent skilled migration visa.It does not rely on any state nomination. The Department of Home Affairs essentially puts all eligible applicants in a nationwide queue.\nCore logic of 189:Higher points get invited first.For popular occupations, candidates only compete against others in the same occupation list.\nCommon popular professions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Accountant<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ICT<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>engineers,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nurse<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Teacher<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>189<\/strong><strong>Key Features of 189 Invitations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Nationwide competition<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">You do not only compete with applicants in one state \u2014 you compete with all candidates across Australia in the same occupation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Points priority rule<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Within the same occupation pool, EOI candidates are ranked by points. The higher your score, the higher your ranking and the faster you get invited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Larger invitation quotas for in-demand occupations<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Australia consistently invites more candidates for long-term shortage professions. However, these occupations also have far more applicants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What matters most:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>EOI points<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>English testing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work experience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Educational qualification<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Partner points<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The stronger your overall profile, the higher your chance of receiving an invitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">2. Subclass 190: Not Just a Points Game<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">The 190 Skilled Nominated Visa is the most misunderstood visa subclass.It does not follow a nationwide points ranking. Its essence is:State governments select candidates based on their own needs.\nState immigration authorities look far beyond just points. They prioritise applicants who fit the state\u2019s labour market and settlement needs. Soft factors play a huge role in 190 nominations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Main Assessment Criteria for 190 State Nomination<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>In-state work experience<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Highly valued by most states, especially:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Full-time role<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Long-term stable employment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work relevant to your nominated occupation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Local study qualification<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Most states give priority to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>International students who graduated locally<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Applicants with long-term in-state residency<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>as they show stronger settlement intention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Occupation in regional shortage lists<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Each state updates its in-demand industry list annually<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nursing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Education<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Social Workers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>construction,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>healthcare<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>and more<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Work location advantage\uff0cCandidates working in regional areas have a major edge. State governments aim to guide skilled labour to regional locations to balance population distribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>English competency<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Superior English scores are favoured for competitive occupations in many states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Genuine intention to settle locally<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This is often overlooked. States carefully assess whether you will stay and contribute locally instead of moving to another state right after obtaining PR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Evidence includes local study,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>local employment,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>in-state residency<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>and clear long-term settlement

points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Candidate A:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>90 points<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>no local work,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>no in-state residency,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>no regional background<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Candidate B:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>75 points,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1-year local work experience,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>regional employment,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>working in a high-demand occupation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">In most cases, the state will nominate Candidate B, as they better match the state\u2019s actual labour and settlement needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Core Difference Between 189 and 190<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">189: Like a national unified exam \u2014 compete on points, ranking and hard credentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">190: Like a state government recruitment \u2014 compete on overall background, state relevance and genuine settlement intention.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u6700\u8fd1\u5f88\u591a\u4eba\u5728\u95ee\uff1a\u201c\u4e3a\u4ec0\u4e48\u6709\u4eba85\u5206\u8fd8\u6ca1\u62ff190\uff0c\u522b\u4eba75\u5206\u5374\u5df2\u7ecf\u83b7\u9080\u4e86\uff1f\u201d\u672c\u8d28\u4e0a\uff0c\u5f88\u591a\u4eba\u4e00\u76f4\u628a189\u548c190\u7684
