Could an American green card holder apply for Australian perminant visa?
Your citizenship or country of residency is completely irrelevant as the rules and requirements are exactly the same for everyone. You can only apply for an Australian permanent visa if you have qualifications and experience in an occupation on our Skilled Occupations List (SOL) and if you can pass the points test and meet English language, health and character requirements. http://www.immi.gov.au/allforms/pdf/1121… The current SOL – a new, much shorter SOL will be released in April to take effect from 1 July http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-s… The current points test. Will be replaced by a completely different one in July.
