Hello, thank you for choosing me as your immigration consultant. I'm happy to help you with your plan to emigrate to Australia and gain citizenship there. Based on your background and eligibility, I have researched the best visa options for you and the requirements, timeline, costs, simulated costs of living inventory and steps you need to take to successfully achieve your goal. Here is a summary of my recommendations: • The best visa option for you is the [https://www.bing.com/search?form=SKPBOT&q=Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189)](https://www.bing.com/search?form=SKPBOT&q=Skilled%20Independent%20visa%20%28subclass%20189%29). This is a permanent residence visa that allows you to live and work in Australia as a skilled worker. You do not need a sponsor or a nomination from an employer or a state or territory government. You can apply for this visa if you have an occupation that is on the relevant skilled occupation list, have a suitable skills assessment, meet the points test, and are invited to apply. • The requirements for this visa are: • You must be under 45 years of age when you are invited to apply. • You must have competent English or higher (IELTS score of at least 6 in each component or equivalent). • You must have at least 10 years of work experience in your nominated occupation or a closely related occupation. • You must have a positive skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority for your occupation. • You must score at least 65 points on the points test, which assesses your age, education, work experience, English proficiency, and other factors. • You must submit an expression of interest (EOI) through SkillSelect and receive an invitation to apply from the Department of Home Affairs. • You must meet the health and character requirements and sign the Australian values statement. • The timeline for this visa is: • The processing time for the skills assessment varies depending on the assessing authority and the occupation. It can take from a few weeks to several months. You can check the processing times on the websites of the relevant assessing authorities. • The processing time for the EOI depends on the demand for your occupation and the number of invitations issued by the Department of Home Affairs. You can check the invitation rounds and the points scores required on the Department's website. • The processing time for the visa application is currently 8 months for 75% of applications and 11 months for 90% of applications. However, this may change depending on various factors such as the complexity of your case, the completeness of your application, and the number of applications received by the Department. • The costs for this visa are: • The fee for the skills assessment varies depending on the assessing authority and the occupation. It can range from AUD$300 to AUD$1,050. You can check the fees on the websites of the relevant assessing authorities. • The fee for the EOI is free of charge. • The fee for the visa application is AUD$4,045 for the main applicant, AUD$2,020 for each additional applicant over 18 years of age, and AUD$1,015 for each additional applicant under 18 years of age. You may also have to pay additional charges such as biometrics collection fees, health examination fees, police clearance fees, etc. • The simulated costs of living inventory for this visa are: • The cost of living in Australia depends on various factors such as your location, lifestyle, family size, accommodation type, etc. However, according to Numbeo , a website that provides data on living costs around the world, here are some average monthly expenses for a single person living in Sydney, one of the most expensive cities in Australia: • Rent: AUD$2,200 for a one-bedroom apartment in the city center or AUD$1,600 for a one-bedroom apartment outside of the city center. • Utilities: AUD$200 for electricity, water, gas, heating, cooling, garbage collection, etc. • Food: AUD$500 for groceries or AUD$800 for eating out. • Transportation: AUD$200 for public transport or AUD$300 for driving a car (including fuel, insurance, maintenance, etc.) • Entertainment: AUD$300 for leisure activities such as cinema tickets, gym memberships, sports events, etc. • Health: AUD$100 for medical insurance or AUD$200 for out-of-pocket expenses (such as doctor visits, prescriptions, etc.) • Education: AUD$500 for tuition fees or AUD$300 for books and supplies (if applicable). • Miscellaneous: AUD$300 for personal care items such as clothing, toiletries, etc. • Therefore, the total monthly cost of living in Sydney would be around AUD$4,300 to AUD$5,700 depending on your choices and preferences. Of course, this is only an estimate and you may spend more or less depending on your situation and needs. You can use Numbeo's cost of living calculator to compare the costs of living in different cities and countries and adjust them according to your own circumstances. • The steps you need to take to successfully emigrate to and gain citizenship in Australia are: • Step 1: Prepare for the skills assessment. You will need to gather the required documents and evidence to prove your qualifications, work experience, and skills in your occupation. You will also need to check the specific requirements and criteria of the assessing authority for your occupation and follow their instructions on how to apply for the skills assessment. You can find the list of assessing authorities and their contact details on the Department's website. • Step 2: Submit an EOI through SkillSelect. You will need to create an online account and fill in your personal details, education, work experience, English proficiency, and other relevant information. You will also need to select the visa subclass that you are interested in (in this case, subclass 189) and indicate your interest in being nominated by a state or territory government (if applicable). You will then be given a points score based on the information you provide. You can update your EOI at any time if your circumstances change. Your EOI will remain valid for two years or until you receive an invitation to apply or withdraw your EOI. • Step 3: Wait for an invitation to apply. The Department of Home Affairs will issue invitations to apply for the visa based on the points score, the occupation, and the number of available places. The invitations are issued every month or every two weeks depending on the demand. You can check the invitation rounds and the points scores required on the Department's website. If you receive an invitation to apply, you will have 60 days to submit your visa application online. If you do not receive an invitation to apply within two years, your EOI will expire and you will have to submit a new one if you still want to apply for the visa. • Step 4: Apply for the visa online. You will need to log in to your SkillSelect account and access your invitation letter. You will then be directed to the online application form where you will have to provide more details and upload the required documents and evidence. You will also have to pay the visa application fee online using a credit card or PayPal. You can find more information on how to apply for the visa on the Department's website. • Step 5: Complete the health and character checks. You will need to undergo a health examination by a panel physician approved by the Australian government. You will also need to obtain police clearance certificates from all the countries where you have lived for more than 12 months in the last 10 years. You will have to provide these documents as part of your visa application or when requested by the Department of Home Affairs. • Step 6: Wait for a decision on your visa application. The Department of Home Affairs will assess your visa application and verify your information and documents. They may also contact you or your migration agent (if you have one) for more information or clarification. They may also ask you to attend an interview or provide biometrics (fingerprints and photo). You can check the status of your visa application online using your ImmiAccount or contact the Department of Home Affairs for updates. • Step 7: Receive your visa grant letter. If your visa application is approved, you will receive a visa grant letter by email or post. The letter will contain your visa grant number, the date of visa grant, the date of visa expiry, the conditions of your visa, and other important information. You should keep a copy of this letter for your records and future reference. • Step 8: Travel to Australia and activate your visa. You must enter Australia before the date specified in your visa grant letter. This is usually within one year from the date of visa grant or before your health and character checks expire (whichever is earlier). When you arrive in Australia, you must present your passport and a copy of your visa grant letter at the border. The immigration officer will then activate your visa and stamp your passport. You can then start living and working in Australia as a permanent resident. • Step 9: Apply for Australian citizenship. After living in Australia as a permanent resident for at least four years, you may be eligible to apply for Australian citizenship by conferral. You will need to meet certain requirements such as being of good character, having a basic knowledge of English, passing a citizenship test, etc. You can find more information on how to apply for Australian citizenship on the Department's website.
