Immigration Data Sources

Last reviewed 2026-05-20

Every eligibility rule, salary threshold, points formula, and processing time on VISA AI is sourced from the destination country's official immigration authority. We don't summarise from blogs or third-party aggregators — we encode rules straight from the primary source and review them monthly. See our Methodology for how those rules feed into your eligibility score.
