Skill Assessment Overview

Skills assessments are issued by relevant skills assessing authorities. A skills assessing authority is an organisation that checks that your skills meet the standards they set to work in a relevant occupation.

The combined list of eligible skilled occupations sets out all relevant occupations under 4 occupation lists. Most occupations in each list have their own skills assessing authority.

Obtaining a suitable skills assessment is mandatory for some visa subclasses (and streams) and may be requested for others.

You might need a skills assessment if you apply for the following visas and streams:

  • General Skilled Migration (GSM) visas
  • Employer Sponsored visas
  • Temporary Skill Shortage visa (TSS)
  • Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485)

Getting a skills assessment

Step 1 Contact the assessing authority: Contact the relevant assessing authority for your occupation. Check which skills assessing authority is the correct one for your nominated occupation and organise your skills assessment well before you apply for the visa.

Each assessing authority has its own procedures, timeframes and charges. The assessment of your qualifications and experience by the assessing authority can take some time and can vary between different authorities.

Step 2 Receive your assessment: Provide a scanned certified copy of the suitable skills assessment with your visa application. If you don't get a positive assessment result you cannot apply for a skilled migration visa.
