Skilled migration provides visa pathways for eligible professionals and tradespeople whose skills may contribute to Australia’s workforce needs.

Applicants may be considered for pathways such as the Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189), Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) and Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 491). These visas are points-tested, and eligibility can depend on factors such as occupation, age, English language ability, qualifications, work experience and skills assessment.

Skilled Migration Process

The process commonly begins with checking whether your occupation is eligible and obtaining a suitable skills assessment. Applicants may then submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) through SkillSelect.

For subclass 190 and some subclass 491 pathways, State or Territory nomination requirements may also apply. Receiving an invitation is not guaranteed, even where the minimum points threshold is met.

We assist clients in understanding the available skilled migration pathways, preparing relevant information and navigating the application process based on their individual circumstances.

Visa Questions Related to Skilled Migration

Skilled migration is generally points-based, but meeting the minimum points requirement does not guarantee an invitation to apply. Invitations depend on the relevant visa pathway and current migration settings.

This depends on factors such as your occupation, points score, skills assessment, location preferences and whether State or Territory nomination is available.

A suitable skills assessment is generally required for the points-tested skilled migration pathways, subject to the requirements of the relevant visa and occupation.

No. An EOI indicates your interest in applying, but it does not guarantee that you will be invited to lodge a visa application.
