Appointing a Migration Agent

You may choose to appoint a Migration Agent to handle your application.

To do so, complete and submit the CA ANZ Third-party Authorisation Form.

This form is necessary to authorise, change, or remove a migration agent’s details.

Information for third parties and migration agents

Third parties and migration agents can now have the ability to manage their client’s skills assessment application from their own CA ANZ account.

Combined assessment

For applicants seeking a combined qualification and skilled employment assessment, skilled employment will only be considered if the qualifications are deemed suitable.

If the qualifications are found not suitable, claims of skilled employment will not be considered due to the absence of a suitable qualification assessment. Fees are non-refundable. 

Applicants may submit a reassessment for a combined qualification and skilled employment reassessment once they meet the criteria.

Document submission

• Ensure all required documents are included with your application.
• Incomplete or incorrect documentation can lead to processing delays and a not suitable assessment outcome.
