Skilled Migration to Australia: How We Can Help

Australia offers a diverse range of skilled migration pathways for professionals, tradespeople, and graduates seeking to build a future in the country. At McLean Legal, we provide expert legal guidance through every stage of the skilled migration process, from eligibility assessments and skills evaluations to visa applications and appeals. Whether you're applying independently, through state nomination, or via employer sponsorship, we are here to ensure your application is strategically prepared and has the best chance of success.

Independent Skilled Visas

Independent skilled visas are ideal for highly qualified individuals who do not require sponsorship from an employer or state government. 


We assist with Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189) and Skilled Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 489) (now closed to new applicants but still relevant for some pathways).


We help you navigate the points-tested system, prepare your Expression of Interest (EOI), and ensure your skills assessment meets the requirements of your nominated occupation. We also provide support for transitioning from provisional to permanent residency where applicable.

State and Territory Nominated Skilled Visas

State and territory nomination provides an excellent pathway for skilled professionals whose occupations are in demand in specific regions.


We assist with Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) and Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 491).


We help you identify eligible states, prepare nomination applications, and meet the specific criteria set by each state or territory. We also guide you through the transition to permanent residency via the Permanent Residence (Skilled Regional) visa (subclass 191).

Employer-Sponsored Skilled Visas

 Employer sponsorship is a powerful route for skilled workers with job offers in Australia.


We provide legal support for: Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186), Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 494), Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (subclass 187) (closed to new applicants but still relevant for some), Skills in Demand visa (subclass 482) (formerly TSS visa).


We work closely with both employers and employees to ensure compliance with sponsorship obligations, prepare nomination and visa applications, and manage transitions to permanent residency.
