Following the liquidation of the Geospatial Council of Australia (GCA), a new assessing authority has officially been appointed.
Institution of Surveyors NSW (ISNSW) is now the designated assessing body for:
– Surveyor (ANZSCO 232212)
What does this mean?
Applies to visa applications lodged from 8 October 2025 (including those still under process)
No need to redo skills assessments already completed with GCA
Ensures fairness and continuity for applicants impacted by the transition
Key Takeaway
While technical in nature, this update is crucial—it ensures that applicants are not disadvantaged due to the liquidation of GCA and can continue their migration journey without disruption.
