Skilled Migration (subclass 189 and 190)

Skilled Migration is a points-based program offering permanent residency to highly skilled professionals of industries that are in need in Australia.

What type of visa?

There are 2 kinds of permanent visas that can result from this program:

  • Skilled independent 189 - Points test
  • Skilled nominated 190 - nominated by State or Territory

Who is this visa for?

You are highly skilled and you wish to come to Australia to either work or live permanently but you do not have a sponsor.

This option is also open to people who are already in Australia temporarily and would like to apply for permanent residency.

The application process

This is a points tested program and follows 3 stages:

  1. Expression of Interest
  2. Invitation to apply
  3. Visa application

Generally this requires all requirements are met and all documents to be ready before submitting an expression of interest.

Occupation ceilings and monthly quotas apply.

As with all types of visas there are health and character requirements.

Family members may also apply on one application.
