Let’s go through the whole process one step at a time:

**

**

Step 4: Expression of Interest

Apply by writing an Expression of Interest (EOI) addressed to the Department of Home Affairs using [SkillSelect](https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/working-in-australia/skillselect). SkillSelect carefully assesses those 65 points, after which you can start applying.

**

**

Step 5: Supporting documents submission

The Department of Home Affairs asks you to apply for candidacy, post your EOI gets accepted. You need to submit your supporting documents within 60 days. It’s better to collect your supporting documents from beforehand.

After your application is received, you will receive an e-mail—login to your ImmiAccount to check the status of your application.

Important: Every applicant has to go through some medical examinations and biometric scans.

**

**

Step 7: Getting accepted

After your visa gets approved, expect to get an email with your visa grant number, the start date of your visa, and visa terms and conditions. If you need any help with the visa application or get stuck on any step, do not forget to [contact us](https://www.kansaz.in/contact-us).
