Australia’s skilled migration program selects candidates through SkillSelect. You lodge an Expression of Interest (EOI), are ranked on a points test and may be invited to apply for a visa such as the Skilled Independent (subclass 189), Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) or Skilled Work Regional (subclass 491) visa.
Your occupation must be on the relevant skilled occupation list and you need a positive skills assessment. We assess your points, guide your skills assessment and manage your EOI and visa application.
