If you have worked in a National Occupational Classification (NOC) job group in a managerial, professional, or technical position, you’re a skilled worker. The skilled immigration visa or your skill would be taken into account if you meet certain minimum requirements. Some of these requirements would include applying for your primary occupation, i.e., the same position as mentioned in the NOC, and having proof of covering all the duties as provided in the lead statement.
Your work should be paid, continuous and meet all the requirements of the given country regardless of whether you worked part-time as a student or full time as a professional. Along with skill requirements, you should also have proof of educational qualification and should develop linguistic skills required for the country you’re applying for. If you meet all these requirements or would like to reach this goal, A2W has your back to answer such queries. Contact Us now!

If you wish to apply for a Skilled Immigration visa for Australia you need to keep in mind the following.
The Skilled Occupations List (SOL) determines which occupations are eligible to apply for permanent residency through the General Skilled Migration program in Australia.
The General Skilled Migration program is for skilled individuals or families looking to permanently migrate to Australia, to fill Australia’s skill shortages. Visas within the General Skilled Migration program are points tested and are either independent, State / Territory sponsored, or family-sponsored permanent visas.
Applicants must obtain a minimum of 65 points on the point assessment to be eligible to apply for the Skilled Independent visa (Subclass 189). To apply for this visa, an applicant must submit an expression of interest (EOI) and be invited by skill selection. Upon receiving an invitation to apply for this visa, you have 60 days to submit your application. Once the Skilled Independent (Subclass 189) Visa has been granted, the visa holder and accompanying family members are able to live, work and study in Australia as permanent residents.
