Expression Of Interest For Points Based Skilled Visas.
To begin their Visa application process, individuals are first required to submit a free Expression Of Interest (EOI) for points based skilled visas which include Subcalss 491, Subclass 190 and Subclass 189.
The EOI is a way for individuals to indicate their interest in migrating to the country and to provide information about their skills, qualifications, and work experience. We always recommend seeking professional assistance whilst preparing to lodge the EOI. Our experienced migration agents at Global Migration & Education Solutions can help you apply for an EOI.
Visas that require you to submit an EOI include:
- Skilled-Independent (Permanent) Visa (Subclass 189): This visa category is for individuals who have skills in an occupation that is in demand in Australia and have been able to score enough points in the points-based system.
- Skilled-Nominated (Permanent) Visa (Subclass 190) : It is a permanent visa for skilled workers who are nominated by a state or territory government in Australia.
- Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) Visa (subclass 491) : This is a provisional visa which allows the skilled workers who want to live and work in the regional areas of Australia.
It is important to note that although the minimum points required to lodge the EOI for the above visa classes is 65, scoring higher than 65 points gives one a better chance to secure an invite.
Pre Requirements of Expression Of Interest in Australia
When applying for EOI, requirements can vary depending on the specific visa program, but generally, individuals are required to meet the following prerequisites:
- Age: Individuals must be under the age of 45 at the time of submitting their EOI.
- English language proficiency: Individuals are required to demonstrate a certain level of English language proficiency, usually a minimum equivalent to an International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test score of 6.0 or higher.
- Educational qualifications: The pattern of study does not matter as long as the Australian study requirement is met. Applicants must complete at least 16 months of study while you are physically present in Australia.
- Points test: Individuals must score a minimum number of points on the points test, which is used to assess their qualifications, skills, and work experience.
- Nomination of an occupation: Individuals must nominate an occupation that is on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) or the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL) at the time of submitting their EOI.
- Skill assessment: Individuals must have a positive skill assessment from the relevant assessing authority for the occupation they have nominated.
Steps Involved in EOI Application
To submit an EOI for a Skilled Migration visa in Australia typically involves the following stages:
Step 1
Information and Account Creation in Skill select
Gather information and create an account in Skill select at the Department of Home Affair’s website in order to submit an EOI.
Step 2
EOI form completion and skill nomination :
Fill in the online EOI form by nominating your occupation and information regarding your qualifications and work experience.
Step 3
Submit Your EOI :
Applicants can then submit the EOI form and wait for an invite which depends upon the demand of their occupation and the points scored.
Step 4
Apply for Visa :
After receiving the invitation applicants can apply for their relevant Visa subclass.
It is important to note that for state nominated visas, there is an additional step to apply for a state nomination after lodging your EOI.
How long does EOI take to process in Australia?
The Australian Department of Home Affairs (DHA) provides approximate processing times on its website.
It’s important to note, that these are only estimates, and actual processing times may vary. You can track the status of your EOI via the DHA’s online system or by contacting them directly.
