Northern Territory State Nomination EOI Data

State nomination availability changes month to month and can differ significantly between the 190 (State Nominated) and 491 (Skilled Work Regional) visas — Northern Territory might have one pathway open while the other is paused, or prioritise different occupations across the two. Rather than guess, use the visa Tabs in the Snapshot & Trend section above: switch between Subclass 190 and Subclass 491 to see Northern Territory's actual Submitted, Invited and Lodged EOI counts and trend for each, straight from SkillSelect. For the next step, see Subclass 190 EOI data by state. For the governing rule, see Northern Territory nomination requirements.

There's no fixed points score — both visas are points-tested, and a successful nomination adds bonus points to your total (5 points for a 190 state nomination, 15 points for a 491 state or family nomination) on top of whatever criteria Northern Territory sets to nominate you in the first place. Work out your own points score with the points calculator, then use the visa Tabs above to see Northern Territory's actual Submitted and Invited EOI numbers for each visa. Calculate your points first with the Australia PR Points Calculator.

Getting a state-nominated visa is a two-step process: you submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) through SkillSelect nominating Northern Territory (and, for the 491 visa, optionally a family-sponsorship pathway instead), then Northern Territory's own government reviews your EOI against its own occupation list and criteria before deciding whether to nominate you. Once nominated, SkillSelect issues the visa invitation and you lodge the full application. This page tracks only the EOI-stage numbers (Submitted, Invited, Lodged) — the nomination decision itself happens on Northern Territory's own nomination portal, outside SkillSelect. Before choosing a pathway, analyse EOI data for one occupation. When you are ready to check eligibility, follow the government’s Northern Territory nomination process.

Invitation rounds aren't published on a fixed public schedule and vary state by state — the Department of Home Affairs issues SkillSelect invitations as nominations come through from Northern Territory. This page's trend chart (switch the visa Tabs above for 190 vs 491) is built directly from SkillSelect's own EOI snapshot data, so you can see exactly how many Northern Territory EOIs have been invited each month for each visa, rather than guessing. For the exact date of the next round, check the official SkillSelect update timetable — this page reports on published EOI outcomes, not future scheduling.

The 190 (State Nominated) visa is permanent and needs a straightforward state nomination; the 491 (Skilled Work Regional) visa is provisional, needs either a state nomination or a family sponsor, and ties you to living in a designated regional area — Northern Territory's own occupation lists and criteria for each pathway are usually different, so it's worth checking both separately. You can lodge separate EOIs for both visas (and 189) with Northern Territory nominations at the same time; SkillSelect tracks each visa/state combination independently, so an invitation on one doesn't rule out the other. Compare the same EOI numbers on the Subclass 190 detail page. For the next step, see Subclass 190 EOI data and trends.

Every number here is compiled from the Australian Government's own SkillSelect system (Department of Home Affairs), refreshed monthly right after each official data reload — no manual estimation. eoidata.com holds no private or authenticated migration data; everything shown is derived from SkillSelect's published figures. You can compare the figures with the government’s SkillSelect EOI Data report.
