The Migration Points Advice Program (the Program) is a documentary-evidence assessment that determines how your qualifications and employment history compare with Australian standards for your Nominated Occupation.
The Program is for applicants applying for a points-tested, independent skilled migration visa who have already received a successful outcome from a TRA skills assessment.
The assessment uses 2 standards:
- The Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF), which is the national policy for regulated qualifications in Australian education and training.
- The Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO), a skills-based system for classifying all occupations in Australia and New Zealand.
It will take approximately 120 days for your application to be processed and finalised after you have submitted it.
The assessment does not allocate points; this is determined by Home Affairs. It is used to tell Home Affairs how your qualifications and/or employment experience compare against Australian standards.
A Migration Points Advice letter can support your points tested visa application.
