Note that such data will vary between invitation rounds as monthly intakes and levels of interest vary.

It is thus merely indicative of trends within the Australian skilled migration scheme.

If you are planning your own Australian permanent residency journey, it is critical that you receive professional advice from a legal practitioner.
