Why Is a Skills Assessment Required?
For certain occupations and visa pathways, applicants may need to obtain a Skills Assessment from the relevant assessing authority. Each assessing authority has its own criteria, document requirements, fees, and processing arrangements.
Why Is It Important?
A Skills Assessment can be an important step for applicants whose nominated occupation requires assessment. It helps confirm whether the applicant’s skills and experience meet the standards set by the relevant assessing authority for that occupation.
Applicants should always check the Department of Home Affairs and the relevant assessing authority for current requirements.
