    Hi Saifullah,

    Thank you for the additional details about your experience. Based on what you’ve shared, your primary role seems to align with the ANZSCO codes for a Telecommunications Technician (ANZSCO 313214) or possibly Electrical Technician (ANZSCO 312312). These occupations are listed on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), which means there are potential skilled visa pathways available.

    Some visa options you might consider include:

    • Subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage) Visa: This requires employer sponsorship. You can search for jobs offering sponsorship on platforms such as:

    • Subclass 186 (Employer Nomination Scheme) Visa: A permanent visa also requires employer sponsorship.

    • Subclass 189 (Skilled Independent) or 190 (Skilled Nominated) Visa: These require you to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) and obtain a suitable skills assessment for your occupation.

    For the Telecommunications Technician pathway, you would need a skills assessment through TRA (Trades Recognition Australia), while an Electrical Technician assessment would typically be through VETASSESS.

    Feel free to ask if you’d like more information about the visa process or help with job searches!

    I hope this helps clarify things, and good luck with your migration journey!

    Kind regards,
    Mark

    Hi Saifullah,

    Thank you for your follow-up questions. Let’s address each concern:

    1. Skills Assessment Fees:

    I understand that the fees associated with skills assessments can be a significant consideration. For trade occupations, the assessment process typically involves multiple stages, each with its own fee. For example, VETASSESS outlines the following fees for trade occupations:

    • Stage 1 – Documentary Evidence Assessment: AUD $1,120.00
    • Stage 2 – Technical Interview: AUD $2,000.00
    • Stage 3 – Practical Assessment: AUD $2,200.00

    These fees can add up, and it’s important to plan accordingly. You can refer to VETASSESS’s official fee schedule for a detailed breakdown.

    2. Occupation Listing on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL):

    Upon reviewing the current occupation lists, it’s important to note that the status of specific occupations can change based on Australia’s labour market needs. The Department of Home Affairs provides up-to-date information on which occupations are currently in demand.

    I have checked the latest list and can see that the Telecommunications Technical Officer or Technologist under ANZSCO 313214 is listed (please see screenshot).

    Additionally (and posts like this can get confusing when talking about lots of different occupations), the assessing authority for this occupation is Engineers Australia, not VETASSESS (who access one of your other occupation options, Electrical Technician (ANZSCO 312312).

    If you are applying for a skills assessment using the occupation of Telecommunications Technical Officer or Technologist, you should review Engineers Australia and check their eligibility requirements and fees. You can find more information here: Engineers Australia Skills Assessment.

    On the face of it, it looks like this approach may be a little cheaper.
