The public AusVisa 189/190 thread includes questions about choosing ACT and comparing state nomination options. This is applicant discussion, not evidence that the October ACT round has begun. The thread also contains visa grants and other states, which should be read separately from new ACT invitations.
ACT lists the week beginning 12 October for subclass 190 only. The schedule is tentative. A specific invitation day or release time has not been announced on that page.
The latest round shown on the official results page is 11 June 2026. June figures are historical and are not October cut-offs. We will add October totals and occupation rankings when the government publishes them.
Has the October 2026 Canberra Matrix 190 round started?

The current ACT schedule lists the week starting 12 October 2026 for subclass 190 only. Check the official schedule for any changes.
What is the minimum Canberra Matrix score for October?
October occupation scores have not yet been published on the official invitation rounds page at our latest editorial review. Past scores and individual reports do not establish the October cut-off.
How often does this tracker update?
The page checks official sources on a ten-minute cache cycle while open. Editorial research is scheduled separately every ten minutes and publishes only material, sourced changes. A source change may need review before totals or rankings are added.
Does an ACT invitation mean my 190 visa has been granted?
An invitation to apply for ACT nomination, an ACT nomination and a visa grant are different stages. Check the government correspondence and official guidance for your stage.
