If all other points claims are equal, invitations for points tested visas will be ranked by the Migration Points Test as described below:·         First – primary applicants with a skilled spouse or de facto partner·         Equal First – primary applicants without a spouse or de facto partner·         Second - Primary applicants with a spouse or de facto partner who can demonstrate competent English but does not have the skills for skilled partner points (age and skills)·         Third -  Primary applicants with a partner who is ineligible for either competent English or Skilled partner points. These applicants will be ranked below all other cohorts, if all other points claims are equal.NOTE if you are granted this New Regional visa you cannot be granted any other permanent visa of any category for 3 years.You are fee to move to other states but you must reside in Regional Australia until qualifying for Permanent Residence Full details are here - <a href="https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2019L00578/Explanatory%20Statement/Text" target="_blank">https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2019L00578/Explanatory Statement/Text</a>(any questions to <a href="mailto:query@iscah.com">query@iscah.com</a> thanks)</blockquote>
