We call Australia PR a dream because for many that is what it is. People dedicate most of their lives to being in a country that can develop and support them, however, sometimes one slip-up can destroy the entire foundation and we do not want that to happen. Therefore here is a guide on how to apply for an Australia PR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Determine_Visa_Type\"><\/span><strong>Determine Visa Type<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various visa types that can get you access to the Australia PR, based on your eligibility the right type must be selected. The following are the most popular methods:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Skilled Independent<\/strong> &#8211; This visa is beneficial for those who possess skills that the Australian government are seeking<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Skilled Nominated<\/strong> &#8211; This is when an individual is nominated as per skill by an institute or citizen of Australia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Skilled Work Regional<\/strong> &#8211; The following has to be a nomination or sponsorship by a state, region or territory<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The steps below are considering a skilled independent visa but the steps for the other visa types wouldn\u2019t differ a whole lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Australia_PR_Eligibility_Criteria\"><\/span><strong>Australia PR Eligibility<\/strong> Criteria<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step is to check if you are eligible for the PR. You can use the PR Points Calculator to see your initial points. A few checklists have to be passed in order to be eligible. The things that come under the Australia PR requirement are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The occupation you are doing or going to Australia for must be listed under the Skilled Occupation list<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The age should be below 45<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overall points from the point grid should be a minimum of 65<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Languages test scores should be; IELTS 7 or above, TOEFL 25 or above, and PTE 65 or above<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Australia_PR_Skill_Assessment_Report\"><\/span><strong>Australia PR Skill Assessment Report<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are eligible then the next step to attaining an Australian PR would be a skill assessment by \u2018SkillSelect\u2019, which is an online portal. After answering a few questions and submitting certain documents the report should be finalised in 8-10 weeks.<br>The evaluation criteria will be based on:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Age<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Education&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work Experience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Language test scores&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Longevity of stay&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Expression Of Interest (EOI)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a statement showing that you are interested in utilising your skillset for the betterment of the place and yourself, and it is also a very crucial step for PR Visa Australia. The Expression Of Interest (EOI) can be submitted on the SkillSelect portal along with the skill assessment report. Your EOI will be scored based on the few questions and documents that are submitted which pertain to your background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Invitation&nbsp; To Apply (ITA)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the EOI gets approved then the next step is to wait for an invitation to apply. This can take some while if the EOI does not have a good enough score based on assessment factors.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the invitation is received then you can go ahead and apply for the visa. The visa application must be submitted within 60 days of the Invitation to apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your visa application for an Australia PR will also require most of your official documents and passport for stamping. Once your visa gets approved, it is just a matter of booking tickets and flying over to Australia to start your new life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span><strong>FAQs<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.
