Dear NEHA SAINI

You have been contacted by the Department of Immigration and Border Protection
This letter refers to your Expression of Interest (EOI) submitted in the SkillSelect system.
Your EOI details are:

Changes to Skills Assessment Validity Period
This email is to advise you that from 1 July 2014, if a skills assessment is required, it will only be valid for a period of 3
years from the date of issue, unless a shorter validity period is specified on the assessment.
A skills assessment must be valid at the time of lodgement for the following visas:
The Direct Entry stream of the Employer Nominated Scheme (subclass 186) visa;
The Direct Entry stream of the Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (subclass 187) visa; and
The Graduate Work stream of the Temporary Graduate (subclass 485) visa.
A skills assessment must be valid at the time of invitation to apply through SkillSelect for the following visas:
Skilled Independent (subclass 189) visa;
Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) visa; and
Skilled Regional (Provisional) (subclass 489) visa.
These changes do not affect the Temporary Work (Skilled) (subclass 457) visa.
If you receive an invitation and your points have decreased or your personal information is not accurate, you should not
proceed to lodge a visa application. You should correct the information in your EOI once it lapses and wait to receive
another invitation.
