Raj27 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Hi, I am on 457 visa. My employer has lodged a new ENS under Direct Entry. I have a positive skills assessment for ICT Managers nec (135112). I have worked with the same company for more than three years. However, I have only worked in the nominated position (ICT Managers) for few months. Will I be eligible for Direct Stream? Please let me know. Thank you.

For a Direct Entry 186, you must have 3 years of relevant work experience. http://www.immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/186.aspx 186 visa. See Visa applicants > Who could get this visa - Direct Entry stream. The same section lists the only grounds for exemptions from work experience requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kawal Kukreja Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I am bit worried as i have already lodged application 2 months ago. MA has got good reputation so i trusted him. I got it in writing from him that i am eligible. I have discussed my case with few MA and only 2 of them said that i am eligible as i got positive skill assessment for qualification and work experience. Do not know what to do? No, that isn't correct. For a Direct Entry 186, you must have 3 years of relevant work experience.http://www.immi.gov.au/Visas/Pages/186.aspx 186 visa.

Raj27 Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Hi Kawal, Ozmanic is correct. We need to have at least 3 years relevant work experience. So I didn't apply for Direct entry. I hope this information helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gclay19 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Hi Kawal,Ozmanic is correct. We need to have at least 3 years relevant work experience. So I didn't apply for Direct entry. I hope this information helps. yes the skills assessment is required for this visa. I just wonder how you get a positive skills assessment if you have only one year of experience. Can you shed us some light on this. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay24 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Depending on the occupation, you may only require one year experience to get a positive skills assessment. You'd have to check with the relevant skills assessor. However you still need 3 years relevant work experience to qualify for Direct Entry, so a positive skills assessment won't help with that.

Some occupations (e.g. Accountants and Engineers) don't require any work experience in order to get a positive skills assessment. The amount (if any) of experience required is determined by the skills assessment authority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
