Yes, you can apply for Australia PR with 70 points. The minimum point required for permanent residency in Australia is 65 points. Australia uses an online system, SkillSelect, to process the visa applications. It evaluates the candidate's profile and gives them points based on age, work experience, proficiency in the English language, and occupation. You are required to submit an Expression of Interest in the SkillSelect system. If you fulfill the points eligibility, you are invited to apply for an Australian Skilled Visa.
