Here is the critical information:

There are many things to be aware of before registering for the PEV ballot.

This includes understanding the visa requirements should you be randomly selected. Before entering the ballot, you should consider whether you:

• are prepared to find a job in Australia so you can meet the employment requirement for the visa.
• understand what documentation you will need to include for everyone in your visa application (health check, police check, English language check, valid passport/s, etc).
• understand the costs and what to expect when you move to Australia.

You will also need to be able to pay the associated costs of the visa/s and all of your costs for moving to and settling in Australia.
