Reading the Numbers
At 70 points, your ranking score for the Subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated) is 75. In the Photographer pool, roughly 30 submitted EOIs rank ahead of you and about 10 are tied at your exact score, which puts you in the upper half of the pool.
Photographer is not on the 189 (points-only) list, so the ranking scores above already include the state nomination bonus (+5 for the Subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated)). Your invitation still depends on a state actually nominating you.
These figures are the national Photographer pool as at July 2026. They move every month as EOIs are submitted, invited or expire, and this page is rebuilt from the live data on every update, so the numbers stay current.
