Are you a skilled worker who wants to accelerate your career in a country of endless opportunities? Come and share our relaxed lifestyle and enjoy our beautiful weather – a combination perfect for raising a family and making lifelong friends.

 

We want workers from a range of industries, especially health, education, infrastructure, ICT and technology to make the smart move Down Under. With the Australian Government fast-tracking visa applications from skilled workers outside the country, now is the time to turn your Aussie dream into reality.

 

And there’s a big plus. Once you’ve got your skilled visa, you can stay and make your life here. The Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189) and Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) are both permanent residence visas. With the Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) (subclass 491) visa you can apply for permanent residence after 3 years.

You’ll be pleased to know all 3 visas have pathways to citizenship. And you can bring your family with you.

Stop dreaming. Start moving.

From dream to reality

Some of the many reasons why Australia is a smart move.
