First of all - the link you refer to is not a legal document as clearly
indicated in red frame.
Secondly - it about the final stage of immigration process (landing from
abroad) after PR visa is granted, not about the application process. You
must submit your PR application to proper visa post abroad. After of course
you meet basic requirements like for example having at least 12 months of
full time, paid, continuous work experience in skilled occupation, having
enough money and meeting or exceeding the pass mark in selection grid.
