Eligibility and Visa Types: The blog post discusses Australian immigration, specifically focusing on the eligibility requirements for various visas. Individuals who have resided in Australia for five years can apply for an Australian visa after four years of residency. The application process considers several factors to determine eligibility. There are various visa types, such as 189, 190, and 186 visas, but primarily on the 189 and 190 visas, detailing their key differences. The 189 visa is emphasized as a prominent visa category.
Points Calculation for the 189 Visa: The point calculation involves various human factors, including age, English language proficiency, education, and professional experience.
Age Points: The age bracket of 25 to 32 years old is highlighted as receiving the maximum points (30), crucial for reaching the qualifying score of 65 points.
4th Language Proficiency Points: English language proficiency is assessed through IELTS or PTE Academic exams. Achieving a band score of 8 in IELTS (or equivalent in PTE) grants the maximum 20 points. In my opinion, this score is attainable with practice.
Regional Language Proficiency Points: demonstrating proficiency in a regional language (eg, French, Chinese, Urdu, Hindi) through a specific exam can earn an applicant an additional 5 points.
Professional Experience Points: Applicants with professional experience, especially in fields like technology or finance, can earn 5 points if they have a year of relevant experience.
Regional Area Points: Studying in regional areas of Australia can earn applicants an additional 5 points. This is promoted as a benefit of studying in regional areas due to the educational consistency across the country.
Education Points: Holding a recognized bachelor's degree from an Australian-authorized institution grants 15 points, and completing a master's degree within two years in Australia adds another 5 points, totaling 20 points for education.
Work Experience Points: Points are awarded for previous work experience, both within and outside Australia. The number of points varies depending on the duration of experience (eg, less than 3 years, 3-4 years, more than 4 years). checking the Department of Home Affairs website for the most up-to-date point allocation. Marital Status Points: Single applicants receive 10 points, while married applicants can gain points based on their spouse's English proficiency (5 points for qualifying exam) and education (5 points for a bachelor's degree or higher), for a total potential of 10 points.
