Migration FAQs
Can I apply for PR directly after my studies in Australia?
Most students first apply for a Temporary Graduate Visa (SC 485) to gain work experience, then transition to a skilled migration visa (SC 189/190/491) once they meet points and occupation requirements. Our migration team will map the right pathway for your profile.
How many points do I need for skilled migration?
You need a minimum of 65 points to be eligible, but invitation cut-offs are typically 80–90+ points for competitive occupations. We calculate your exact score and advise on how to strengthen your profile.
Do I need a registered migration agent?
Yes — under Australian law, only registered migration agents (RMAs) can provide migration advice for a fee. Planet Education works with registered agents who will be your official representative for all visa applications.
How long does skilled migration take?
Processing times vary widely: SC 189 can take 6–24 months, SC 190 varies by state, and SC 491 depends on regional demand. We keep you informed of current processing times and help you plan accordingly.
