Onshore Permanent Residence Visas under the General Skilled Migration Scheme are primarily targeted to provide pathways for permanent residence to international students and holders of certain provisional visas.

The permanent visas are categorised as:

• Skilled Independent (Residence) Visa
• Skilled Sponsored (Residence) Visa
• Skilled Regional (Residence) Visa

The applicants are required to meet the basic criteria and score the required pass marks in order to make an application under the General Skilled Migration Scheme. However, overseas students do not have to meet the recent work experience requirement of the basic criteria if they have completed 2 years of full-time studies in Australia within 6 months of making their visa application.
