Dear Expats,

I have gone through the suggested article but the information provided is for the people who are already living in Australia for 2 years or for partner visa etc.

To get PR visa, should I apply some other visa ??

For PR you have to be living and working in Australia first.聽 So you need to find a job, work here and then apply for PR.

as you are outside australia i suggest you apply for subclass 189 or 457 and migrate with a PR. i applied for subclass 189 and received australian Pr invitation within a time period of 3 months. the more score you obtain the earlier you get the invite. do some research before coming to australia and see which parts of the country have opportunities according to your skills. access linkedin and job search sites as well.
