The Australian Computer Society (ACS) is the designated professional assessing authority for persons seeking to apply for Skilled Migration as IT Professionals.

In addition to the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANZSCO) code descriptions for each of the IT Professional occupations, the ACS has established criteria for the level of qualifications, training and work experience required for an IT Professional for the purposes of migration to Australia, outlined in the ACS Pre-application Skills Assessment Guidelines for Applicants [Microsoft Word Icon DOC: 1,029KB].

Timelines for assessment

As a general rule, applicants should allow at least twelve weeks between the time of making a complete and satisfactory application to the ACS and a decision being made by the responsible decision maker. Timelines may be extended by a number of factors, including the complexity of the application, incomplete applications, requests from the ACS for additional information and the time taken by the applicant to provide additional or revised information.
