Most occupations have their own skills assessing authority. The Department only accepts a skills assessment issued by the relevant assessing authority therefore you are encouraged to arrange your skills assessment well before you intend to submit your Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect or your Visa application. You cannot rely on a skills assessment that was obtained after you were invited to apply.
