Applicants for this visa must be

  • Be under the age of 45.

  • Have Competent English or higher, and their dependent family members over 18 years of age have at least Functional English

  • Obtain a positive skill assessment in an occupation on the relevant Skilled occupation list

  • Meet the pass mark in the skilled migration points test - currently 65.

  • Lodge an Expression of Interest (EOI) through the SkillSelect system, and be invited to apply

  • Be nominated by a State or Territory Government, or have sponsorship from an eligible family member

 

You can be either in or outside Australia when you apply for the visa, but you must

not be in immigration clearance at the time of your application. If you apply from

within Australia, you must hold a substantive visa or one eligible bridging visa.

 

You can include family members of the family unit in your application when you

submit your visa application. You can also add a dependent child after you submit

but before any decision is made on your visa application.

 

You can travel out of Australia and return as many times as you wish while the visa is

valid. However, any time spent outside Australia does not extend the duration of the

Visa.

 

In the first free consultation, after checking your visa status and conditions, we will

recommend to you whether you are eligible to apply for a skilled employer sponsored

regional visa application. For your successful visa application, based on our

knowledge and experience in applying for a visa, we will fill out your visa application

and prepare additional documents. After your skilled employer sponsored regional

visa permit grant, we will let you know the decision from the department of

immigration. If your visa has been refused, contact us. We will help you to apply for

ART.
