Skilled Australian Sponsored PDF Print E-mail

In order to get this visa, you must have a relative who is willing and able to sponsor you, and is either Australian citizen/Australian permanent resident or an eligible New Zealand citizen.

Your relative/sponsor must be one of the following: parent, child, brother/sister, uncle/aunt or niece/nephew.

The main advantage of this is the fact that it has a lower pass mark-only 110 points. In addition to that, you are awarded 15 points for relationship to your sponsor.

 

However, you should be aware of one serious restriction that concerns Skilled – Australian Sponsored visa applicants whose sponsor live in Sydney, Gosford, Newcastle or Wollongong. Such applicants must nominate an occupation that is on the Sydney and Selected Areas Skilled Shortage List (SSASSL). This list is significantly shorter than the Skilled Occupations List.




Skilled-Australian Sponsored Student visa also has the pass mark of 110 and 15 points for relationship with the Australian sponsor can be claimed. Unlike with the Skilled-Independent Overseas Student visa, you can apply for this visa subclass even if your nominated occupation is worth only 50 points (and you do not need to have a doctorate for that). Your nominated occupation does not need to be listed in SSASSL, either-you can nominate any occupation from the Skilled Occupations List.

 

Please note that the information about visas is in general terms. There are many subclasses of visas that may be appropriate to your personal and unique situation that we can advise you about . Furthermore , the law concerning migration is subject to frequent amendment.
