Skill Select (w.e.f July 2012) :

Skill Select is an online system that enables skilled workers interested in migrating to Australiato record their details to be considered for a skilled visa through an Expression of Interest(EOI). Intending migrants could be found and nominated for skilled visas by Australianemployers or state and territory governments, or they could be invited by the AustralianGovernment to lodge a visa application.

Page 15: Australia

..:: Australia IRR ::..

http://www.opulentian.com/intranet/index.php/processing/preview_irr/20063/30168[26-03-2013 00:40:29]

Skill Select will ensure the skilled migration program is based on the economic needs ofAustralia. The Australian Government will be able to manage who is able to apply for skilledmigration, when they are able to apply and in what numbers, on the basis of this need.

As a result, the Department of Immigration and Citizenship expects tosignificantly reduce the time taken to process a visa application.

Skill Select will also help address regional skill shortages. Skill Select allows intending migrantsto indicate they are willing to live and work in regional Australia. This will be of particular benefitto employers experiencing regional skill shortages and state and territory governmentsattempting to settle migrants in regional Australia

EOI Submission: Once EOI is completed the system will give you a points score and resultsbased on your claims, result and points score, along with your time of submission becomesyour ranking for some visas. The ranking process will be an objective and automatic processwith no involvement of the department's staff.

One can update your EOI at any time prior to receiving an invitation. You may wish to do this ifyou have gained new work experience, gained a higher qualification and/or improved yourEnglish language ability and/or changed your family composition. If you provide updatedinformation which changes your points score or your ability to make a complete EOI against avisa, then SkillSelect will update your ranking and ability to be considered for an invitationautomatically.

Once you have completed your EOI, you will receive a confirmation notification fromSkillSelect. Your EOI will then remain in Skillselect for a maximum of two years.

Incomplete EOIs will also be stored for two years, but will not be eligible to receive aninvitation. EOIs that do not comply with the terms and conditions of SkillSelect can be removedby the department at any time.

Invitation and Selection

Depending on what type of visa(s) you want to be considered for, you mayreceive an invitation to lodge a visa application, or an Australian employermay contact you to discuss a job opportunity.

Occupation ceilings An occupation ceiling may be applied to invitations issued under the independent, family

sponsored or state/territory sponsored visas. This means there will be a limit on how manyEOIs are selected for skilled migration from an occupation group. This ensures that the skilledmigration program is not dominated by a small number of occupations.

Once this limit is reached, no further invitations for that particular occupation group will beissued for that program year. Invitations would then be issued to other EOIs even if they are

lower ranking. For the state and territory sponsored visas, a state or territory will not be able tonominate you if your nominated occupation has reached its occupation ceiling.

You will be able to view the occupation ceilings on this website when SkillSelect is introduced. Independent and family sponsored visas Invitations will be issued automatically to the highest ranking EOIs subject to occupation

ceilings. The department's staff will not be involved in the selection process. Invitations will beissued regularly, such as every month.

State and territory sponsored visas State or territory governments will locate and select skilled workers that they want to nominate.

State and territory governments may do their own assessment of people before they nominatethem. If you are nominated by a state or territory and you have indicated that you meet thepoints test, you will then receive an invitation, subject to occupation ceilings.

When you submit an EOI for one of these visas, you will be asked to select which state orterritory you wish to live and work. You can select one state or territory, or any state or territory.You will also be asked to indicate if you are prepared to live and work in a non-metropolitanarea.

The natural beauty of Australia is quite simply inescapable.

The climate facilitates a healthy, active lifestyle and makes it aperfect place to live. Australia has a wide range of climates but generally no extremes. The averagetemperature ranges from 23-26 degrees Celsius above the Tropic of Capricorn with the southernareas more temperate although subject to variations.

On the world stage, Australia has made a huge contribution toculture and sport. It is home to wonderful cinema, indigenousmusic and dance, ballet, theatre, opera and rock-n-roll. World-class sporting prowess in rugby and cricket is also close at hand.And even if you're not quite in that league yourself, you will neverbe far from a game of one kind or another.The culture and customs consists of a rich tapestry ofnationalities including traditions, legends, myths and folklore. Theindigenous 'Dream time' forms the base of tens of thousands ofyears of spiritual aboriginal art and culture. Australia really is acountry where you will experience all that life has to offer.

LanguageIn Australia over 200 different languages and dialects are spoken, including 45 indigenous languages.The most commonly spoken languages (other than English) are Italian, Greek, Cantonese, Arabic,Vietnamese and Mandarin.

Cost Of Living It’s difficult to calculate an average cost of living, as it depends onan individual’s circumstances and lifestyle.Australia has some of the least expensive cities in the world. Theeconomy is somewhat influenced by Western culture but the percapita gross domestic product (GDP) when it comes to thepurchasing power of the country is higher compared to theUnited Kingdom.Some of the notable cities that boast quality living and expensesare Adelaide, Brisbane and Melbourne. All of Australia’s majorcities made it in the top 30 best places for expatriates. InWestern Australia, the cost of living is even lower. Migrants canexpect nothing less when it comes to rent space, transportation,education, commodities and leisure.Compared to any other place in the United Kingdom, all of the cities and provinces in Australiasignificantly offer much cheaper living conditions not to mention the added financial and educationalbenefits provided to every citizen. In 2004, the World Competitiveness Yearbook remarked thatAustralia is the third best worldwide country when it comes to low cost of living

Language An average family of four would expect to spend around 500 euro every month for food and drinks.Usual meats in Australia are either lamb or beef which is acquired and processed locally. Fish isgenerally cheap but cities located near the sea and ocean will charge more for their catch.

What would cost more are imported products like cereals,biscuits, beer and imported fish. Australia is widely popular forexporting milk, beef for world-famous steaks and some exoticproducts like kangaroo meat and King Island cheeses. NewSouth Wales offers rock oysters and Illabo milk-fed lamb,Victoria offers Meredith lamb and Gippsland beef, SouthAustralia is known for its scallops and tuna while Queenslandhas great fruits like Bowen mangoes and papaya that arecommonly exported. Other exotic food products are crocodile,shark, ostrich and emu meat. Everything that is acquired locallyis very affordable.

Clothing and Accessories Cost in Australia Locally made Australian clothes and items are cheap whileimported ones are expensive. Citizens equally wear traditionaland modern fashion wear. People can find several productsavailable, especially clothes made from local Chinese material.A lot of the preferred cut and color of Australian clothes todaystemmed from Chinese culture brought by early migrants duringthe 1800s. Silk, chiffon and velvet are some examples that arestill used to make shawls and coats. In terms of localaccessories, there are several cheap items in flea shops andbazaars like bead necklaces and bracelets as well as woodenearrings and anklets that all have aboriginal roots.Australia also doesn’t lag behind when it comes to modern fashion. Although the locals typicallyprefer a more casual appearance, several designers can be found in most of the major cities. Victoriais still considered as the most fashionable place in Australia. The clothes and accessories designedby local designers are expensive since most are created for exportation purposes. The products arestill made available to locals if they want to and can be purchased after fashion festivals andpublicized catwalk shows. The Australian fashion industry is doing very well which is why the countryis known worldwide for textile and ingenious creation of design. As posted on Australia Expat Forumlast January 24, 2009, the average costs for casual clothes are as follows:

Housing Costs in Australia Australia is in need of more immigrants, and this is the reason why there are several housing optionsavailable for everyone’s comfort and preferences. People can choose from single room apartments tosmall houses with yard space to huge areas or condominiums downtown. Most Australians preferhaving a house and lot in suburban neighborhoods.Land is very much in excess in comparison with the actual number of residents in any given state.Housing in major cities will generally cost more compared to living out in the province and farmlands.On average, a family of four will spend around 600 AUD every month for rental or mortgage.

Hyderabad, New Delhi, Bangalore, Pune, Vizag, Mumbai, Chennai, UK, USA, Ireland

Sydney $528,500 (£215,400) Melbourne $398,200 (£162,300) Brisbane $388,200 (£158,200) Adelaide $355,800 (£144,800) Canberra $488,800 (£199,000) Perth $503,300 (£205,200) Darwin $421,000 (£171,700) Hobart $258,000 (£105,200)

Utilities are very affordable and some states provide free clean water to residents. A typical familywill have a bill of around 100 AUD every month for electricity and water consumption. Generally,middle class citizens get to buy their own house and lot after eight years. Giving an initial deposit andapplying for a bank loan is common practice. Renting apartments and condominiums are notcommon practice compared to the United Kingdom. Public housing is also offered for lower classcitizens. Part of their income automatically goes to rent.

Services Costs in Australia The Australian government gives national health policies to allcitizens and immigrants. Health services are subsidized and allmedical services, pharmaceuticals and health institutions areprovided financial assistance. Almost 10% of the country’s percapita GDP goes to the health sector. Technology andprofessional training is generally up to date.Australia also gives importance to education and everyindividual up to 17 years of age is ordered to stay in school.
