Partner skills

You can claim partner skills if, when you are invited, your partner:
is under 45 years of age
has competent English
has an occupation that is on the same skilled occupations list as your nominated occupation
has been assessed by the relevant assessing authority as having suitable skills for their nominated occupation
is coming to Australia with you
is not an Australian citizen or permanent resident.

Assessing authorities are listed against occupations in the relevant list of eligible skilled occupations.
