The rules for using PR Insight.
1. General disclaimer
PR Insight is an independent, data-driven information tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Australian Government, the Department of Home Affairs, the Office of the Migration Agents Registration Authority (OMARA / MARA), or any official government or regulatory body.
All information on this platform is provided for general informational, statistical, and reference purposes only.
2. What PR Insight is (and is not)
PR Insight aggregates publicly available Australian skilled migration data — SkillSelect EOI rounds, occupation ceilings, state nomination allocations, points cutoffs, processing times, and visa fee schedules — and presents it as statistical estimates, side-by-side comparisons, and your-own points calculations across visa subclasses 189, 190, 491, 482, 186, 494, 191.
PR Insight is not a migration agent, migration lawyer, or immigration assistance service. We do not, and cannot lawfully, provide “immigration assistance” as that term is defined in the Migration Act 1958 (Cth).
2.1 Migration Act 1958 (Cth) — section 276
Under section 276 of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth), it is a criminal offence to provide “immigration assistance” in Australia unless you are a registered migration agent (MARA-registered) or a legal practitioner with an unrestricted practising certificate. Penalties include substantial fines and imprisonment for up to 10 years.
“Immigration assistance” under s.276 includes: advising a person on a visa application or visa matter; preparing, or helping to prepare, a visa application or related document for lodgement; representing a person in their dealings with the Department of Home Affairs; or otherwise assisting in connection with a visa application or visa matter in a way that is directed to the individual circumstances of that person.
PR Insight does not do any of these things. Specifically, PR Insight does not:
- Tell you which visa you should apply for;
- Tell you whether to lodge, withdraw, or delay an Expression of Interest (EOI);
- Prepare, lodge, or represent you in any application to the Department;
- Communicate with the Department on your behalf;
- Provide advice tailored to your individual legal circumstances.
What PR Insight does is purely statistical and data-driven:
- Shows you publicly available cutoff and round data;
- Calculates your indicative points score using the published points test;
- Shows historical invitation-round patterns based on public data;
- Surfaces occupation and state allocation information;
- Lets you compare pathways and states side by side.
If you need advice on what to do with this information, you must consult a MARA-registered migration agent or an Australian legal practitioner. The official register is at portal.mara.gov.au.
3. Not professional advice
Nothing on PR Insight constitutes immigration advice, legal advice, financial advice, or professional consultation of any kind. The outputs of our calculators, comparisons, and any modelled estimates are statistical reference material only and must not be used as a substitute for advice from a registered migration agent, immigration lawyer, or other qualified professional.
Immigration decisions involve complex legal requirements, individual circumstances, and discretionary departmental and ministerial considerations that no statistical model can capture. Always consult a qualified professional before making any immigration-related decision.
4. Historical data is not a prediction
Features such as the points calculator, eligibility scoring, pathway comparison, and historical round summaries are based on past published government data. They are not predictions or guarantees that an invitation, nomination, or visa grant will occur by a particular date or at a particular points level.
Actual outcomes depend on factors outside our model, including:
- Occupation ceilings being reached mid-program-year;
- Ministerial Direction changes (e.g. priority processing categories);
- ANZSCO and Skilled Occupation List (SOL / CSOL) updates;
- Mid-year planning-level adjustments to the migration program;
- State and territory nomination allocation changes and policy shifts;
- The discretionary nature of state-nominated subclasses;
- Your individual circumstances, documentation, and conduct;
- Health, character, and Public Interest Criteria assessments.
You should not make irrevocable decisions — such as resigning from a job, breaking a lease, relocating internationally, declining other visa pathways, or paying for skills assessments — based solely on PR Insight’s figures. Verify everything against official sources and consult a registered professional.
5. Data sources & accuracy
Data on PR Insight is sourced from publicly available government datasets, including:
- The Department of Home Affairs SkillSelect EOI dashboard and published invitation round results;
- Home Affairs visa-listing pages, fee schedules, and Ministerial announcements;
- State and territory migration portals (NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, NT, ACT);
- Jobs and Skills Australia and Australian Bureau of Statistics labour-market data;
- The CRICOS register and other public registries.
While we make reasonable efforts to keep the information up to date and correct, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, timeliness, or suitability of the information. Visa rules and program parameters change frequently — you must verify all figures against the Department of Home Affairs website (immi.homeaffairs.gov.au) and consult a registered migration agent before relying on any of this information for an actual visa application.
Any reliance you place on PR Insight is strictly at your own risk.
6. User responsibility & liability
You are solely responsible for verifying any information obtained from PR Insight against official government sources before making decisions. Official information is available at homeaffairs.gov.au, the relevant state nomination portals, and the SkillSelect portal in your ImmiAccount.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, PR Insight shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost, or expense (including but not limited to loss of opportunity, visa application fees, relocation costs, or lost income) arising from the use of, or reliance on, information on this platform.
7. Account & subscriptions
To access certain features (saved scenarios, alerts, the dashboard), you must create an account. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your sign-in email and the magic-link emails we send. We use a passwordless magic-link flow — we never store passwords because we never collect them.
Certain features may, in future, require a paid subscription billed through Stripe. At launch, the founding-member tier is A$5/month, grandfathered forever for the first 100 sign-ups. The standard tier is A$9/month or A$79/year. No payment is taken during the pre-launch waitlist period.
Unless required by the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)), all payments are non-refundable. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy under the ACL that cannot be lawfully excluded.
You may cancel your subscription at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
