COVID-19 Update

The ACS Migration Skills Assessment Team would like to assure applicants and migration agents that we have robust business continuity plans in place during this time. All of our systems and processes are functioning as per normal and we would encourage you to continue to submit your migration skills assessment applications with us.

We are aware that applicants may be adversely impacted by the current pandemic and again want to assure applicants that our customer service channels through phone and email are operating as normal.

GLOBAL TALENT INDEPENDENT PROGRAM

The Global Talent Independent (GTI) program is designed to attract the best and brightest skilled migrants to Australia in a number of sectors. Candidates who meet eligibility requirements are invited by the Department of Home Affairs (DoHA) to apply for a Distinguished Talent visa. The Department of Home Affairs accepts GTI nominations from the ACS. We can work with you and your clients to assist in this process.

Please see our "Information for Applicants" page for further information.

Information For Migration Agents

ACS can assist migration agents who have clients that intend to apply for a skills assessment in order to migrate to Australia. Migration agents can register their details with ACS to create their own agent profile. This allows agents to use the same login details for each client application they submit.

Migration agents who have already registered with ACS, please proceed to the Agents Login to access your dashboard where you can manage all your ACS applications.

Please Note: Only one application per client can be active at any one time.
