Australia FAQ

Australian government has formulated the provision of 3 points tested streams for Australia Permanent Residency – ‘Skilled Independent Visa’ (subclass 189), ‘Skilled Nominated Visa’ (subclass 190), ‘Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) Visa’ (subclass 491) for the skilled workers outside Australia for candidates without any job offer or sponsorship from an Australian employer.

It is necessary to check the eligibility of the candidate’s occupation in the skilled occupation list. If the candidate is able to score 65 points based on distinct criteria such as age, education, work experience and language abilities then he/she is eligible.
