Skilled Migration Visas are designed for individuals who have skills and qualifications in high-demand occupations within Australia. This pathway is particularly beneficial for professionals in fields such as engineering, IT, healthcare, and trades. With a robust economy and a high demand for skilled workers, Australia offers numerous opportunities for those looking to build a career in the country.
To apply for a Skilled Migration Visa, individuals must first complete a skills assessment, which evaluates their qualifications and experience against Australian standards. This assessment is typically carried out by a relevant assessing authority, depending on the occupation. Once the skills assessment is complete, applicants must submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) through the SkillSelect system, which ranks candidates based on a points-based system. The higher the points score, the better the chances of receiving an invitation to apply for a visa.
The Skilled Independent Visa (subclass 189) is one of the most common skilled migration visas. This visa allows individuals to live and work in Australia without the need for employer sponsorship. Alternatively, applicants may apply for a Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190) or Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) Visa (subclass 491), which requires state or territory nomination.
