Skilled migration refers to the process of individuals with specific skills, qualifications, and experiences moving to another country for work or residence purposes.

It involves the selection of immigrants based on their ability to contribute to the host country's economy and society. Skilled migrants often undergo assessment processes to demonstrate their expertise and eligibility for employment or residency in their chosen destination. Skilled migration is a common strategy used by countries to fill gaps in their labor markets and promote economic growth.

Skilled Migration

Australia's skilled migration selection process involves several steps to assess the eligibility of individuals who wish to migrate to the country based on their skills, qualifications, and work experience. Here is an overview of the key stages in the skilled migration process for Australia:

  • Skill Assessment: Applicants need to have their skills assessed by the relevant assessing authority designated for their occupation. The authority will determine if their qualifications and work experience meet Australian standards for their profession.
  • Expression of Interest (EOI): Candidates must submit an Expression of Interest through the online system SkillSelect. In the EOI, applicants provide details about their skills, work experience, and other relevant information.
  • Invitation to Apply: Based on the EOI, eligible candidates may receive an invitation to apply for a skilled visa. The ranking is based on factors like age, English proficiency, work experience, and qualifications.
  • Visa Application: Once invited, applicants can submit their visa application online, providing the necessary documents to support their claims regarding skills, health, character, and other requirements.
  • Points Test: Applicants need to score a minimum number of points on the points test to qualify for skilled migration visas. Points are awarded based on factors such as age, English language proficiency, work experience, and qualifications.
  • Visa Grant: If the application is successful and all requirements are met, candidates will receive a visa grant to migrate to Australia under the skilled migration program.

It's essential for applicants to stay updated on the latest immigration requirements and changes in the skilled migration process to navigate the application successfully.
