What are the nomination requirements, and what are the new occupations?

South Australia State Nomination Requirements for Skilled Migration Program

Each Australian State has different state nomination requirements for their Skilled Migration Program. If you wish to be invited by the State Government of South Australia, you must meet these requirements:

a. Residency requirement

Generally, to be invited by the South Australian Government, you must be residing in South Australia for a particular time. The residency requirement is different for each occupation. If you live offshore and your occupation is listed in the South Australia occupation list for offshore applicants, you can apply for a Registration of Interest (ROI).

b. Age

You must be under 45 years old at the time of nomination.

c. Occupation

Your occupation must be listed on South Australia’s Skilled Occupation List, and you must meet the eligibility requirements for your occupation.

d. Skills Assessment

You must have a valid and positive Skilled Assessment from the relevant Skills Assessment Authority. The Skills Assessment must be for your nominated occupation and must have been issued within three years.

e. Work experience

You must meet the work experience requirement specified for your nominated occupation.

f. English

You must meet the English language requirement specified for your nominated occupation.

Important Notes for Skilled Migration Program Applicants

Skilled Migration program is one of Australia’s migration programs that attract skilled workers around the world. As we know, the Skilled Migration program has three visa subclasses, namely 189 visa, 190 visa and 491 visa.

Two of these visa subclasses, 190 visa and 491 visa; are state-nominated visa subclasses. It means if you wish to migrate to Australia on 190 visa or 491 visa, you must receive an invitation from the Australian State or Territory Government.

It is a very competitive process to get an invitation or being nominated by the Australian State and Territory Government. There is no guarantee that you will directly be nominated after lodging an Expression of Interest (EOI) or Registration of Interest (ROI), even though you have met the minimum requirements.

However, it does not mean you have no chance to work in Australia as part of the Skilled Migration program. All you need to do is be patient and do everything to maximise your point.
