Is this occupation a realistic migration pathway?
Roof Tiler may connect to skilled, state-nominated and employer-sponsored pathways. First confirm that the work covers the full trade scope, then use TRA Pathfinder to identify the applicable assessment program.
Skills assessment checkpoints
- TRA is the principal assessing authority; OSAP, JRP, MSA and TSS programs serve different applicants.
- Assessment may include document review, employment verification, technical interview or practical stages.
- Program eligibility must be checked from passport, location, qualifications, Australian study and visa purpose.
Evidence to prepare
- Relevant qualification, course, training or apprenticeship records
- Payment, tax, employer and period-specific employment evidence
- Project, site or third-party evidence showing the full trade scope

Common decision questions
Must every Roof Tiler applicant use OSAP?
Not necessarily. The program depends on occupation, passport/location, qualifications, study background and visa purpose; use TRA Pathfinder first.
Does occupation-list membership guarantee migration eligibility?
No. Skills assessment, visa, points or nomination, health and character requirements remain separate.
