Subclass 476 Australia Visa for Pakistani Engineers

by | Apr 27, 2020 | blogs

Subclass 476 Australia Visa OR Australian Visa Subclass 476  is a golden opportunity for all the recent engineering graduates in Pakistan that aim to pursue a promising career in Australia. This visa (Subclass 476 Australia) provides an excellent chance to the recent graduates from PEC accredited Universities of Pakistan with an ideal way to gain professional work experience of up to 18 months in Australia.
After the completion of 18 months engineers can either come back to Pakistan to serve their homeland or they can continue their stay by applying for permanent residence in Australia.

Subclass 476 Australia Visa – The Key to An Engineering Career in Australia

  • 476 Visa is your gateway t o an Australian permanent residence
  • 476 Visa can help you to continue your higher education in Australia as well
  • You can also plan your own business in Australia
  • It provides an excellent opportunity for young engineering graduates to aim for earning a good salary early in their career

How Much Do Fresh Engineering Graduates Earn in Australia?

  • It’s quite easy to make a living in Australia. Just by doing couple of part time jobs for 10 to 12 hours a day and 6 days a week, you’re able to make an average AU$ 6500 in Sydney (the most expensive city in Australia)! 
     
  • After deducting the average living cost (i.e AU$ 2,000) in Sydney (the most expensive city of Australia), you’re still earning additional AU$ 4500!

Eligibility Requirements of Subclass 476 Visa (Australia)

While being a recent graduate from a PEC accredited university is the prime requirement of the 476 Visa, there are certain other eligibility requirements as well.

  • Be under 31 years of age
  • Must have completed their engineering degree from a recognized institution within the past two years
  • Must demonstrate English language ability (General/ Academic), at least 6.0 overall bands with a minimum score of 5 in each components
  • Must fulfill character and health requirements
