Skilled independent visa

Skilled independent visa (subclass 189)

This visa concerns people who have expertise in specific areas that Australia needs, and which are not sponsored by an employer. To get this visa you need to get a minimum number of points awarded according to various criteria.

Eligibility:

The application for this type of visa is both long and complicated. It is therefore advisable to use OBCO Migration Services. Since the procedure can be long, it is recommended to initiate the procedures as soon as possible. Moreover, the period of the Skills Assessment does not qualify you for a visa, or Bridging visa. Therefore you must have a valid current visa during the application or make it from abroad.

The members of your immediate family can be added to your visa application.
