Indian accountants interested in obtaining a Permanent Residency (PR) visa in Australia typically follow the General Skilled Migration (GSM) pathway.Here is a general guide on the steps to pursue  Australian PR  as an accountant:

1. Skills Assessment:

Obtain a skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority for accountants in Australia. The assessing authorities often include CPA Australia, the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Australia (ICAA), or the Institute of Public Accountants (IPA). The skills assessment is crucial to demonstrate that your qualifications and experience align with Australian standards.
