The Skill Matching Visa is designed to encourage potential migrants who don't have a high enough score for the Independent Skilled Migrant Points Test. For this category you will only require threshold qualifications in regard to your age, skill, work experience, and ability to speak English, so it is not that hard to apply. In addition, the initial entry cost is quite low. This is a real opportunity for young people to start a new life in Australia.
