Migration Skills Assessments are issued by relevant skills assessing authorities. A skills assessing authority is an organisation that checks that your skills meet the standards they set to work in a relevant occupation. For most of the Australian skilled migration pathways, the applicant needs to obtain the skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority. Each assessing authority has its own assessment procedures, timeframes and charges. Obtaining a suitable skills assessment is mandatory for some visa subclasses (and streams) and may be requested for others.
Due to the higher demand for services of skills assessing bodies in Australia, they maintain strict information and documentation standards. Any deviation from their expected standards will result in an unfavourable outcome. These outcomes may range from a shorter length of experience being assessed out of the total years of submitted experience, asking for numerous further information requests and even issuing a negative outcome making your entire investment in the process a waste. Further, assessing authorities like Trade Recognition Australia, Engineers Australia, and VetAssess change their available pathways and document requirement more frequently. Further, due to the higher caseload, submission of any substandard may be very costly, considering the time it takes to apply for the review process or reapplication. As experienced migration professionals, we handle your migration skills assessment with utmost care to obtain a positive outcome with the maximum possible length of experience within the shortest possible time, which, intern expedites the migration process saving you a considerable amount of time and money.
