ASMIRT skills assessment: occupations and visas

Every occupation ASMIRT assesses, with ANZSCO codes and the visa subclasses each one opens.

ASMIRT (Australian Society of Medical Imagery and Radiation Therapy) is the assessing authority for 3 occupations on Australia's skilled occupation lists. A positive assessment from the right authority is a precondition for lodging - the department does not accept an assessment from a different body, however good it is.

Official site: www.asmirt.org. Fees, evidence requirements and turnaround times are set by the authority, not by the department.

Where the assessment sits in the process

  1. Confirm your occupation and its ANZSCO code on this page.
  2. Apply to ASMIRT with your qualifications and employment evidence.
  3. Sit your English test - see the score tables.
  4. Score yourself on the points calculator and submit an EOI.

Assessments have a validity period, and yours must still be valid at invitation and at lodgement. Starting the assessment late is the most common reason a skilled application misses a round.

Frequently asked questions

What does ASMIRT assess?

ASMIRT is the skills assessing authority for 3 occupations on the Australian skilled occupation lists, listed in full on this page.

Can I use a different assessing authority?

No. The authority is fixed by your nominated occupation. An assessment from another body will not satisfy the criterion.

Do I need a skills assessment before submitting an EOI?

For most points-tested visas you need it before you are invited, and the evidence must be there at lodgement. Assess early - it is the longest lead item in the process.

Rules, fees and test scores change. Confirm current requirements at immi.homeaffairs.gov.au before you lodge. General information only - not immigration advice.
