What is Strategic Migration Guidance?

Strategic Guidance is a holistic, long-term service that connects your education directly to Australia’s Skilled Migration Program. We build a pathway for you before you even enrol, helping you make the right choices today to secure your opportunities for tomorrow.

Our expert guidance covers:

• Study-to-PR Pathways: Designing your education journey (e.g. Bachelors, Masters) to maximize your migration outcomes.
• The Skilled Migration Points Test: A complete analysis of your profile and a strategy to gain maximum points.
• Occupation & Course Alignment: Ensuring the course you choose leads to an “in-demand” occupation on Australia’s Skilled Occupation Lists.
• Post-Study Work Visa: Securing the vital Temporary Graduate Visa (subclass 485) to gain crucial Australian work experience.
• State & Regional Nomination: Using state-based migration (Subclass 190) and regional pathways (Subclass 491) to your advantage.
•  

Our Strategic Process: Building Your Future

We don’t just find a course; we build a complete migration file.

1. The Foundation: Course & Occupation Analysis

This is the most critical decision. We analyze your background and career goals against the current Skilled Occupation Lists (SOL). We will advise you on which courses (e.g., in IT, Engineering, Health, or Trades) and locations (including regional areas) give you the strongest foundation for a permanent residency application.

2. The Bridge: The Temporary Graduate Visa (Subclass 485)

After graduation, the Subclass 485 visa is the essential bridge. It allows you to live and work full-time in Australia for 2-4 years. We provide expert guidance to ensure you meet the strict “Australian Study Requirement” and lodge a flawless 485 application, so you can gain the vital local work experience needed for your points test.

3. The Goal: Permanent Skilled Migration

As you complete your studies and 485 visa, we work with you to lodge a powerful Expression of Interest (EOI) for a skilled visa (like the 189 or 190). Our service includes:

• Points Test Maximization: We identify every point you can claim—for age, English, qualifications, work experience, and partner skills.
• Skills Assessment Guidance: We manage your application with the relevant assessing authority (e.g., ACS for IT, Engineers Australia) to get your occupation formally recognized.
• State Nomination Strategy: We target states and territories that are actively seeking your specific skillset, dramatically increasing your chances of receiving an invitation to apply for PR.
