Frequently asked questions

Do I need a job offer for skilled migration?

Not for the points-tested independent (189) or state-nominated (190) visas. You need a positive skills assessment in an eligible occupation and a competitive points score. We assess your profile and recommend the strongest stream.

How many points do I need for skilled migration?

The minimum is 65, but in practice you need a competitive score because invitations are issued to the highest-ranked applicants. We help you identify legitimate ways to maximise your points.
