IN case anyone is interested they are raising the total number of points required to get a PR from 115 to 120 next year.

I talked to a migration specialist who said that they are raising the points this year. With the points at 120 it will be almost impossible to get PR before graduating unless you have a relative here closer than a cousin (gets you 15points). Even if you thought about applying now, by the time you have your skillz assessed it would likely be past the deadline.

It won't quite be impossible...what they are trying to do is get people to migrate to "rural" areas. Migrating to one of these places gives you an extra 5 points ...which is why they raised the points.

Also getting a PR from the big cities like Melbourne or sydney is very difficult now a days due to long lines and a massive number of ppl. apply each year.
