Canberra Matrix Invitation Round: 15 August 2022

admin 2 minutes read
Canberra Matrix Invitation Round: 15 August 2022

Each month, a set number of nomination spots are available in the ACT (pro-rata against the annual allocation). The top Matrix performers in each occupation were invited to submit an application for ACT nomination.

The occupation cap, demand, date, and time of Matrix submission, along with the remaining monthly allocation, all had an impact on the cut-off for selection. The higher the rank of the Matrix score invited, the stronger the demand for a given occupation.

The minimal ranking score simply serves as a guide and does not ensure that an invitation was sent. If your application is still being processed or if you’ve already been nominated for the ACT, no invitations will be sent to you.

Requests for ranking information

There is no assurance of invitations. Requests for information on ranking or the chances of getting an invitation won’t get a response from us. No invitations or priority will be given to Matrix depending on their individual circumstances. This includes, but is not limited to, the dates on which visas expire or when circumstances change, such as important birthdays.
