Skilled (Independent) Visa
Are you skilled in any particular area of interest and hold an impeccable acumen in the same? Do you also wish to work somewhere in Australia by optimizing your skill to the fullest? Well, if that is the case, then the Skilled Independent Visa offered by the Department of Home Affairs lets you live and work permanently in Australia itself by making the best use of the various skills and traits that you have acquired while living in your native country.
To say in a nutshell, it is basically a point based visa and the applicant has to score 65 points at the most in order to become entirely eligible for the skilled independent visa.
