    Welcome to our community MD

    If you want to migrate to Australia as an Automobile Engineer or someone in the After-Sales Service sector for Commercial Vehicles, you need to check whether your occupation is listed on the relevant skilled occupation lists. This helps align your skills with the Australian visas available for that Skill.

    Step 1: Check Your ANZSCO Code

    Your role could fall under one of the following Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO) codes:

    If your work is more focused on engineering and technical development, you may be eligible under Mechanical Engineer (233512). However, if your experience is more hands-on with vehicle servicing and repairs, then a Diesel Motor Mechanic (321212) or Motor Mechanic (321211) might be a better fit.

    Step 2: Skills Assessment

    Before applying for a visa, you must have your skills assessed by the appropriate authority:

    Step 3: Choose the Right Visa

    Based on your occupation and skills assessment, you can consider the following visa options:

    1. Skilled Independent Visa (Subclass 189) – If your occupation is on the MLTSSL and you score enough points in the Points Test (age, experience, English skills, etc.).
    2. Skilled Nominated Visa (Subclass 190) – Requires nomination from an Australian state or territory government.
    3. Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) Visa (Subclass 491) – If willing to live and work in regional Australia.
    4. Employer-Sponsored Visa (Subclass 482 – Temporary Skill Shortage Visa) – If you can secure a job offer with visa sponsorship from an Australian employer.

    Step 4: Improve Your Eligibility

    Step 5: Submit an Expression of Interest (EOI)

    Once your skills assessment and English test are complete, submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) through SkillSelect and await an invitation to apply for a visa. We actually published a guide titled “How to Submit a High-Scoring EOI” which you might also find helpful

    I hope this helps! Let me know if you need more guidance.
