Last year, I got invited with 75 points. At that time, 75 points will get you an invite right away. But now, you need 90 points to avoid waiting long.
Check Iscah FB page. They make fairly accurate estimates.

Hello, nowadays a civil engineer needs 90 points to get an invite. I think the last 65 pointer selected was back in 2017 already.

Salamat!

Aside from the 9.5 to 12 % superannuation contribution from employer. Probably 30% or higher will go into taxes, still worthy. We can go back to again comparing an employee status in Dubai vis-a-vis in Australia, lots of forum or queries about this in here.
