Trades Recognition Australia (TRA)

1. Purpose: Required for skilled migration visa application to the Department of Home Affairs.
2. Outcome: Recognises skills and experience at the required level for work in the nominated occupation.
3. Limitations: Solely applicable for visa application to Home Affairs, not for employment, licensing, or qualification-recognition purposes.

To apply for the Migration Skills Assessment (MSA), ensure you meet the following criteria:

1. Possess a qualification closely aligned with your nominated occupation.
2. Acquire the necessary duration of directly pertinent work experience in your occupation.
3. Familiarise yourself with the employment prerequisites outlined in the MSA Applicant Guidelines.
4. Confirm that your occupation is included in a skilled occupation list with TRA specified as the relevant assessing authority.

Notably, you are exempt from applying for MSA if you are pursuing the Offshore Skills Assessment Program (OSAP) or the Temporary Skills Shortage (TSS) Skills Assessment Program.

For those considering our services, we provide an initial meeting. In this session, we will simplify the legal aspects of the visa, explain the process ahead, and address any questions you may have.
