making it a reality.
Why Australia?
● Strong Economy: A steady economy and innumerable opportunities in the engineering,
health, IT, construction, and education sectors!
● PR-Friendly Immigration System: Skill migration in Australia is based on a point and
transparent system that makes it one of the easiest permanent residency pathways.

Main Immigration Pathways for Pakistanis
1. Residence through the Skilled Independent Visa, Subclass 189: For skilled workers
who do not require sponsorship, with points awarded on (age, education, experience,
English).
2. Also, the Skilled Nominated Visa, Subclass 190: In this type of visa, applicants are
nominated by one of the states or territories in Australia. Pakistani professionals in
demand (engineers, IT professionals, nurses, and tradespeople) can benefit a lot.
3. Regional Provisional Visa, Sub-class 491: Good for those willing to reside in regional
areas. It is the pathway toward permanent residency.
4. Student Visa (Subclass 500)
For young Pakistanis who want to pursue higher education. It often serves as a stepping
stone to permanent migration.

● Step 2: Book your IELTS or PTE Academic test.
● Step 3: Calculate your points and check your occupation on the MLTSSL or STSOL
list.
