Maximizing points for skilled independent

Ric_SuizoRic_Suizo Davao CityPosts: 11Member
Hello po

Currently going over the skilled migration requirement for Australia and so far its not really fairing well. here are the points i have gathered so far:

Age=30
Skilled employment outside of Australia=5

There are other categories that i think i can acquire like:

Award or qualification recognized by the assessing authority in assessment of the skilled occupation=10

English language ability=10-20

Spouse skills=5

if I can somehow acquire the maximum points for the categories above i would have a 65-70 points which is around the minimum points to be eligible for a visa Subclass 175 Skilled Independent according to http://www.workpermit.com/australia/general-skilled-migration/points_requirements.htm (65 points).

are there other ways to acquire additional points?
i would really appreciate your advice

thanks po

    Visa Subclass 175 has permanently been stopped and not offered anymore. It is replaced with Visa Subclass 189. Please check this link for reference. https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/189-
