Transcript of 4 Essential Skilled Migration Pathways for Engineers to Get Australian PR
Australia, with its culturally diverse society and growing economy, has always
welcomed skilled workers from all over the world to come and contribute to
the development process of the country.
This has been majorly reflected with the opportunities given to Engineers in
Australia through Skilled Migration Program.
Individuals with engineering backgrounds in Australia don’t require any work
experience, when it comes to lodging an application for skilled migration.
Since their field is featured frequently in the SOL (Skilled Occupation list).
Additionally, this program improves the prospects of gaining permanent
residency in Australia through a number of ways including:
1. English Language Proficiency: One of the most effective ways to get
qualified for Skilled Migration is to achieve a higher level of English
competency.
With IETS (International English Language System) test results, 6.0 overall
(proficient level) and 7.5 overall (Superior level) or PTE Academic test results,
65 band in each or equivalent (proficient level) and 79 band in each or
equivalent (Superior level), applicants can gain 10 or 20 points respectively.

2. Skilled – Recognised Graduate Visa (Subclass 476)
Engineers who have completed two years of study in a recognised institute of
Australia can apply for Skilled- Recognised Graduate Visa and gain up to 18
months of skilled work experience. However, applicant must have a
qualification of bachelor or higher level with an institute offering courses that
are specified by the DIBP.
3. Professional Year Program Certificate
Getting an engineering professional year program certificate is also a
great way to earn 5 additional migration points that can be used for skilled
migration point based visa. This program is specifically designed to help
international graduates enhance their employability skills and gain insight
into the Australian workplace through an internship placement.
4. State or Territory Sponsorship
Every year different states of Australia nominate people for skilled visa on the
basis of occupations with high demand. Engineers with state nomination can
receive 5 points for Skilled Nomination Visa (Subclass 190) and 10 points for
Skilled Regional Provision Visa (Subclass 489) towards the DIBP points test.
They are also given high priority for permanent resident application
processing.
However to receive a state nomination, one must have occupation featured on
the State Nomination Occupation List to meet the Government’s eligibility
requirements.
Epilogue
Without a doubt, Engineering is one of the most preferred occupations for
Australian Immigration and with the well-organised Skilled Migration
Program; the visa process has also become streamlined. However, in case, if
you mistakenly choose a category that is irrelevant to your qualifications and
experience, your visa may get refused or cancelled, which ultimately shatter
your dreams of getting PR for Australia.
Hiring a qualified consultant will not only help you to gather all sorts of
relevant information about the skilled migration process but also avoid
unnecessary delays and mistakes that reduce the chances of your visa
application getting selected.
