Hi I'm ready to lodge my 189 visa. Would I have a better chance getting it if I went through a agent or did it my self?

Using an agent does not give you a better chance - if you meet the criteria and have been invited to apply then there is no reason why you would not get the visa if you supply all the documents required and you have not overclaimed points.

Won't make a difference, but there's no reason why you can't do it yourself providing you follow the instructions and can evidence the points you've claimed.

My view - and you can call me biased if you want - is that a good migration agent will almost always reduce the risk of an adverse decision on the visa application.

Whether there is a high risk of you getting it wrong is a function of your own knowledge and understanding of what the Department of Immigration requires to support your claims in the application. Unfortunately none of us on this forum can answer that for you.

Best regards.
