Each Australian skilled migration visa is multi-layered. Elena Koulikov can expertly assist you by explaining the various Australian skilled visa pathways and navigate you through the entire skilled visa process.
This includes assistance with the skills assessment application, state/territory sponsorship, lodgement of the Expression of Interest SkillSelect and main visa application with the Department of Home Affairs.
You will also be assisted with obtaining the required police clearance certificates and health checks for visa purposes.
Firstly, we determine your eligibility for skilled migration and determine the most suitable visa for your situation. It is important to understand the different stages of your visa application process and the steps involved.
The General Skilled Migration (GSM) visas subclass 491, 189 and 190 are points-tested, and require skills recognition. There is an age limitation, work experience and an English language visa requirement under the GSM visa program in addition to other mandatory visa requirements.
The subclass 190 Visa also requires state/territory sponsorship, which you will be assisted with. Participating states and territories select who is eligible for nomination on the basis of the skills in demand in that jurisdiction. There are a number of specific obligations that the visa applicants are required to meet when accepting the state/territory nomination. We discuss the process in detail to ensure your obligations and visa status in Australia are rightfully maintained. Visa compliance is important.
Elena will explain the different stages of your application, break down the work into manageable components and guide you through the visa process from start to finish. This means that your immigration journey will be mapped to ensure you meet the skilled visa requirements under the specific General Skilled Migration or Student visa program.
One of the mandatory visa eligibility requirements under the subclass 189, 190 and 491 Visa program is that you must have a suitable skills assessment for your nominated occupation.
There are currently 39 skills assessment authorities, authorised by the Australian government to assess visa applicants’ qualifications, skills and experience for visa purposes in Australia. This includes Vetassess, Trades Recognition Australia, Australian Computer Society, Engineers Australia, SSSI, MedBA, ANMAC, AITSL and many others. Elena will assist you with the skills assessment application if required, to ensure you can meet the skills assessment requirements for your nominated occupation.
The Skilled Migration includes many intricacies and can be legally complex. You do not have to navigate it alone. Elena has assisted thousands of clients with their permanent residence and student visa application processes with great success and is happy to assist you as well.
