Deeper look
State DNA — what invited EOIs looked like by state
The published tables carry more than points: English level, partner skills, Australian study and other flags. This view compares how common each trait is among invited EOIs against how common it is in the pool, jurisdiction by jurisdiction.
What this view measures
For each trait, the view shows how much more or less common it is among invited EOIs than among submitted ones, for the jurisdiction and subclass you selected.
Reading the chart
A trait that is much more common among invited EOIs suggests it correlated with invitation in that snapshot. Whether it caused anything is outside what this data can show.
Traits with small counts move wildly between snapshots. Treat a single large difference with the same suspicion you would give any small sample.
What the figure represents
Consistent patterns across several months and several jurisdictions are worth noting: they usually reflect the fact that higher-scoring EOIs are invited first, and the traits that carry points travel with them.
In the dashboard
Set the visa to 190 or 491 and pick a jurisdiction. Comparing two jurisdictions is more informative than reading one in isolation.
This view is behind sign in. Occupation Trends on 190 is open in the guest trial.
State DNA is behind sign in. Occupation Trends for 189 and 190 plus five occupations is open in the guest trial.
For applicants
Read it as background on what the invited group tended to look like, not as a checklist. Traits you cannot change should not become a source of worry.
For migration professionals
Helpful for setting expectations about what a competitive profile has looked like, provided you separate correlation from criteria in the same sentence.
Limits of this view
Only published traits appear, small groups are suppressed, and nothing here reveals a jurisdiction’s actual selection criteria, which each publishes itself.
Common questions
Does a strong English trait mean the state prefers it?
It means invited EOIs there had it more often. English also carries points, so the pattern may simply reflect higher-scoring EOIs being invited first.
