A skill assessment is required for most permanent visas (Such as General Skilled Migration
Visas – 189, 190 and 491) and also for Permanent Employer Sponsored – 186 Direct Entry.

What is Required to pass a skill assessment:

Generally speaking, for most non-trade occupations VETASSESS does not require any
practical skill evidence. Instead, you will usually be required to provide evidence you have
the relevant qualifications and a specific number of years of work experience.

Each occupation requires a different level of education and a certain number of years of work
experience. For example, for a Restaurant Manager, you only need to have studied at a
Diploma Level, however, for a Marketing Specialist, you must have studied at a Bachelor
Level.

When looking at the requirements for a Restaurant Manager you must have a relevant
qualification (either from your home country or Aus) + at least 1 year of work experience.

What documents must be provided:

Each occupation has different documents required, however, you will generally need to have
Education documents, employer reference + 2 types of pay evidence (Eg – payslips, tax
assessment, bank statement etc..)
