The TSS Skills Assessment Program is an assessment pathway for applicants applying for a Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa, who:
- work in a nominated occupation and hold a passport from a nominated country or Special Administrative Region (SAR) as indicated in the table below;
- are required by the Department of Home Affairs (Home Affairs) to have a skills assessment for temporary migration.
A skills assessment determines if you have the skills and experience necessary to work in Australia at the trade level for your occupation.
Please Note: It is your responsibility to confirm with Home Affairs that your visa pathway requires a skills assessment, and that TRA is the relevant assessing authority for your nominated occupation, before submitting an application.
How to Apply
There are two skills assessment pathways available under the TSS Skills Assessment Program:
Pathway 1 is for applicants that do not hold an Australian qualification in their trade. Skills assessments are conducted against the requirements of the relevant training package qualification for the nominated occupation. The Pathway 1 assessment process consists of four steps that must be completed sequentially.
Pathway 2 is for applicants who hold a:
- relevant Australian VET qualification; or
- current identified Australian occupational licence*.
In addition to your qualification you must be able to demonstrate work experience of at least three years full-time employment in a directly related occupation. This must include 12 months full-time paid employment in your nominated occupation in the three years prior to lodging your application. For applicants applying with a current identified Australian occupational licence the 12 months full-time paid employment must be in Australia.
