Australia PR Process for Offshore Engineers
- Engineering Qualification: You must have a recognised degree in Diploma or Advanced Diploma or Bachelor of Engineering as a prerequisite.
- Competency Demonstration Report: If the university you have done your engineering from is accorded or recognised by Australian universities, or Washington, Dublin, Canada, UK universities, you do not need to write a CDR (Competency Demonstration Report).
In case your university is not accredited by any of the above-mentioned universities, you need to prepare a CDR to prove your skill sets match the occupation you are applying for in Australia. Although, work experience is not mandatory, it would certainly add value to your CDR.
We have decades of experience in dealing with offshore engineer migrants seeking Australia PR. Consult us to know whether your university is accorded or not and find further pathways that suit your candidature for applying for PR.
- English language proficiency: You must score at least 6 in all the bands of reading, writing, listening and speaking modules of IELTS. If you come from an English-speaking country, you are exempted to take this test.
- Points Test: You are required to score minimum 60 points on your points test to be able to submit your Expression of Interest.
- Skills Assessment: You need get a Skills Assessment done with Engineers Australia.Engineers Australia is an Assessing Authority for Engineers seeking immigration to Australia. Engineers Australia assess professional and para-professional qualifications in engineering for skilled migrants.
- Expression of Interest: Upon passing the Skills Assessment, submit your Expression of Interest (EOI) on Department of Immigration and Border Protection site through SkillSelect.
- Invitation to Application: You will receive an invitation for application from Immigration Department after reviewing your EOI.
