Skills Assessment
A positive skills assessment is the foundation of your migration journey. We get it right the first time.
Overview
Before applying for most skilled migration visas, you must receive a positive skills assessment from the relevant Australian assessing authority for your occupation. This critical step requires careful preparation — the wrong documents or an incomplete application can cause delays or refusals.
Eligibility Requirements
Our Process
Occupation & Authority Identification
We identify the correct ANZSCO occupation code and relevant assessing body for your profession.
Gap Analysis
We review your qualifications and experience against assessing body requirements and identify any gaps.
Document Preparation
We help you compile and present your employment references, transcripts, and supporting evidence in the required format.
Application Lodgement
We prepare and lodge your skills assessment application with the relevant authority.
Follow-up & Outcome
We monitor your application and advise on next steps once the outcome is received.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which assessing body do I apply to?
It depends on your occupation. Engineers use Engineers Australia, nurses use ANMAC, IT professionals use ACS, accountants use CPA/CAANZ/IPA, and tradespeople use TRA. We identify the correct one for you.
What if I don't have formal qualifications but have work experience?
Some authorities accept Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) — a process where your practical experience is assessed as equivalent to qualifications. We can advise if this applies to you.
How long is a skills assessment valid?
Most positive skills assessments are valid for 3 years from the date of the assessment, though this varies by authority.
