Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about getting transcripts for Australia immigration.

Do I need transcripts for Australia PR?
Yes. To apply for a skilled migration visa (Subclass 189, 190, or 491), you must first obtain a positive skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority. This requires official academic transcripts, degree certificates, and mark sheets from your Indian university. Without these documents, the skills assessment cannot proceed.
Which skills assessment body do I need?
The assessing body depends on your nominated occupation. Engineers go through Engineers Australia (EA), IT professionals through ACS (Australian Computer Society), nurses through ANMAC, accountants through CPA Australia or CA ANZ, teachers through AITSL, and most other occupations through VETASSESS. You can check the relevant body for your ANZSCO code on the Department of Home Affairs website.
Does Engineers Australia need syllabus copies?
Yes, Engineers Australia typically requires detailed syllabus or course descriptions along with your transcripts, especially if you are applying through the Washington Accord pathway or the CDR (Competency Demonstration Report) route. The syllabus helps them assess whether your degree content meets their benchmark standards. FACTS can procure syllabus copies from your university as part of the document collection process.
Can FACTS send directly to ACS / Engineers Australia?
Yes. FACTS can arrange for your official transcripts and documents to be sent directly from your university to Engineers Australia, ACS, ANMAC, VETASSESS, and other assessment bodies. We ensure documents are properly sealed, attested, and dispatched via tracked international courier to meet each body's specific submission requirements.
What format do Australian assessment bodies accept?
Most Australian bodies accept documents in sealed, tamper-proof envelopes sent directly from the issuing institution. Some bodies like ACS also accept attested digital copies (scanned and emailed by the university). Engineers Australia and ANMAC generally prefer physical sealed documents. FACTS will confirm the required format with the specific body before dispatch.
How long does skills assessment take?
Processing times vary by body. ACS typically takes 6–8 weeks, Engineers Australia 4–12 weeks (depending on the pathway), ANMAC 8–12 weeks, VETASSESS 8–12 weeks, and CPA Australia 4–6 weeks. These timelines are in addition to the document procurement and dispatch time by FACTS (typically 2–3 weeks). Rush processing is available with some bodies for an additional fee.
