Highlighted bars are EOIs at or above your points. These counts include only EOIs with a status of Submitted: people still waiting in the pool for an invitation. Once an EOI is invited, lodged, or closed, it has left the queue, so counting those would overstate how many people are actually ahead of you.
9 in the pool. As at October 2026, 9 Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologist expressions of interest were sitting in the 189 pool, waiting for an invitation. The largest cluster sits at 65 points.
The Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologist 189 pool has held roughly steady since October 2025 (around 9).
An EOI moves through four stages. This chart counts only the first one. Here's the full picture so the numbers make sense.
Where you stand means how many people could be invited before you. That's only the people still in the queue with you, which is the Submitted pool. Everyone else has already been invited, has applied, or has left. Adding them would either inflate the number or compare people at completely different stages.

Since January 2022, 75 points was at or above the cutoff in 5 of the 12 rounds that invited this occupation. In 2 of the last 14 rounds, this occupation wasn't invited at any score. These are past rounds, not a prediction.
Different visas, different lists, different ends. The 189 is permanent residence, points-tested, employer-independent, and uses the MLTSSL for occupation eligibility. The 482 Skills in Demand is a temporary employer-sponsored visa that uses the Core Skills Occupation List (which also includes Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologist). The 189 sends invitations based on a points ranking. The 482 requires a sponsoring employer who passes labour-market testing.
For the 189 visa, yes. MedBA is the designated assessing authority for ANZSCO 253917 (Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologist). An EOI submitted without a positive skills assessment can't translate into a granted visa. Skills assessments have their own fees, processing times, and document requirements. Check the assessing authority's website for the current process specific to your qualifications and work experience.
No one can answer that honestly, and anyone selling certainty about future cutoffs is overstepping. What the data shows is the cutoff for Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologists has trended downward since 2022. The Department of Home Affairs sets the program direction. The official SkillSelect page publishes new rounds when they happen.
As at October 2026, 9 Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologist expressions of interest were waiting in the 189 pool: people who have lodged an EOI and not yet been invited. It's a monthly snapshot from official SkillSelect data, and it shows how crowded the pool is at each points score, not who gets invited (the Department of Home Affairs doesn't publish that).
These occupations share the same 4-digit ANZSCO unit group as Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologist and are also eligible for the 189. Cutoffs and invitation rates often diverge sharply between them.
