When is the next round?
Home Affairs says rounds are run periodically. It does not publish a fixed next-round date, so this page does not predict one.
Departmental rounds cover subclass 189 and subclass 491 Family Sponsored. Subclass 190 and state-nominated 491 invitations are managed by each state or territory and are shown separately below as cumulative nominations.

How to read this data
Invitation-round totals are event data from the Home Affairs invitation-round pages. They are separate from eoidata.com's monthly Submitted, Invited and Lodged status snapshots.
The 190 and state-nominated 491 figures are cumulative nominations reported by Home Affairs. Detailed selection criteria, round timing and result formats depend on each state's own website.
No fixed federal schedule is published. Future automation will detect official page changes and require validation before publication rather than generating forecasts.
