Skilled Independent Visa (subclass 189) (Points-tested stream)
Subclass 189 is a points-based visa that allows skilled workers to live and work in Australia as permanent residents. Applicants are assessed based on several factors, such as:
- age;
- work experience;
- educational qualifications;
- English; and
- suitable skills.
EOI Before Course Completion
You may lodge an EOI before or after completing your course or program. However, if apply prior to completion, you cannot claim points for the Australian study requirement and the specialist education qualification (and regional study if you are in regional Australia). Nevertheless, you can still claim points for your English language ability, existing educational qualifications and skilled employment experience.) Alternatively, you may lodge an EOI after completing your course or program.
Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190)
Subclass 190 is similar to subclass 189, with the addition of state nomination. This visa also requires you to submit an EOI where you will be able to claim state nomination points. You may be required to satisfy additional state nomination requirements, such as active residence in the relevant state or employment in the nominated occupation. https://www.arlaw.com.au/personal-migration/skilled-visas/
