Frequently Asked Questions About Australia PR in Surat

Everything you need to know about SkillSelect points, state nominations (190/491), skills assessments, and family migration.

The three main General Skilled Migration (GSM) points-tested visa subclasses are: 1) Subclass 189 (Skilled Independent): Permanent residency allowing you to live and work anywhere in Australia without state sponsorship. 2) Subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated): Permanent residency sponsored by an Australian state or territory (giving +5 nomination points). 3) Subclass 491 (Skilled Work Regional): A 5-year provisional visa pathway to permanent residency sponsored by regional states or eligible relatives (giving +15 nomination points).

The statutory minimum to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) on SkillSelect is 65 points. However, competitive invitations for high-demand occupations (Engineers, IT professionals, Accountants, Nurses, Trades) typically require 75 to 85+ points. Achieving Superior English (IELTS 8.0 each or PTE 79+ each) adds a vital 20 points to your profile.

A positive Skill Assessment from the designated Australian assessing body is mandatory before lodging your EOI. Major assessing authorities include ACS (Information Technology), Engineers Australia (Engineering), VETASSESS (General professional occupations), CPA/CA ANZ (Accountants), and ANMAC (Nurses). We assist with CDR drafting and documentation.

Yes. Your spouse and dependent children under 23 can be included as secondary applicants in the same PR visa application. If your spouse has competent English and a positive skill assessment, they can also contribute up to 10 partner points to your SkillSelect score.

Each Australian state and territory (including New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, and Western Australia) operates a state migration plan with dedicated occupation lists. Receiving a state nomination awards +5 bonus points for Subclass 190 or +15 bonus points for Subclass 491, making it a critical pathway for applicants needing higher SkillSelect scores. Inspire Education assists with state nomination tracking and ROI submissions across all states.

The NAATI Credentialed Community Language (CCL) test evaluates your ability to translate dialogue between English and your community language (Hindi, Gujarati, Punjabi, etc.). Passing the online CCL exam awards 5 valuable bonus points toward your SkillSelect points total.

Holders of the Subclass 491 visa can apply for the Subclass 191 Permanent Residence (Skilled Regional) visa after living and working in a designated regional area of Australia for at least 3 years and submitting 3 years of Australian tax notices (NOA).
