Are you interested in residing and working in Australia? You may be able to apply for skilled migration to Australia from South Africa if you are a qualified professional or tradesperson who also has relevant job experience.

People who are not sponsored by an employer are eligible to participate in the General Skilled Migration program in Australia (have a job offer from an Australian company). Applicants must be at least 18 years old and no older than 45 years old, have a solid command of the English language, recent relevant skilled job experience, and qualifications that are comparable to those required by Australia.

If you presently operate a business or have finances that you would want to invest in Australia, you should seriously consider submitting an application for an Australian Business and Innovation Visa from South Africa. This visa is available to anyone who meet certain requirements.

You have the ability to own and run a business in Australia if you have the Business and Innovation (Provisional) Visa (Subclass 188). You also have the ability to engage in business and investment activity or perform an entrepreneurial activity with this visa. If you are in possession of a subclass 188 visa, you will have the opportunity to apply for a Business and Innovation (Permanent) Visa at a later time in order to seek permanent residence in Australia (Subclass 888).

You might be qualified for an Australian immigration family visa from South Africa if you are a partner or parent who is wishing to rejoin with their loved ones in Australia. If this sounds like then, you should read on.

The visa for people sponsored by family is available to anybody who:

is either the Australian sponsor's fiance, husband, or de facto partner, including a partner of the same sexual orientation, and has a kid or children living in Australia who are citizens of Australia, permanent residents of New Zealand, or eligible citizens of New Zealand.
