Australia: General Skilled Migration Visa Skills Assessment Submission Timeline Relaxed
March 8, 2023
The Australian government is now accepting skills assessments obtained by applicants within 60 days of receiving an invitation for a General Skilled Migration (GSM) Visa. Previously, the Australian government required applicants to complete the required skills assessments before the submission of the Expression of Interest for a GSM Visa. As a result, applicants benefit from a longer duration to submit the skills assessment, where the previous submission timeframe was a common cause of rejection due to assessments not being completed prior to the Expression of Interest stage.
