• Changes to Vetassess skills assessment from 1 January 2010
  • 2010-01-22 07:29:34

From 1 January 2010, Vetassess will be changing its requirements for skills assessments for migration purposes.

The essential changes are that:

  • the qualification must be relevant to the nominated occupation
    AND
  • that at least one year’s relevant work experience will be required. This has to be work experience/on-the-job training completed in the five years before the date of application for a skills assessment.
  • In some cases, one or two additional years of relevant employment may be required IF the qualification does not have enough content which is relevant to the nominated occupation.

NOTE: Subclass 485 (Skilled - Graduate Temporary) visa applicants

There will be a Stage 1 skills assessment for Subclass 485 (Skilled - Graduate Temporary) visa applicants, which will not require one year’s work experience. The full skills assessment (which will require work experience) must be done for an application for a permanent GSM visa.

Subclass 485 applications can only apply for a Vetassess skills assessment if they have a nominated occupation in Vetassess’s new occupation Groups A and B.

 

For more information about these changes, please consult our Registered Migration Agent.
