NSW Skills Lists 2022/2023 (NSW Skills Occupation Lists 2022/2023)

 

NSW invites and nominates SkillSelect EOIs at the ANZSCO unit group level. To be eligible for NSW nomination you must be skilled in an occupation that BOTH:

  • appears within an ANZSCO unit group identified below, AND
  • is eligible for the respective visa

It is important to note that not all occupations within ANZSCO unit groups are eligible for the respective visa. It is the responsibility of the prospective migrant to ensure their occupation is eligible for the visa before obtaining a skills assessment.

 

New minimum point scores and skilled work experience requirement

NSW has introduced new minimum point scores and years of skilled work experience requirements in the 2022-23 financial year.

To be eligible for NSW nomination you must meet the minimum point score AND minimum years of work experience in your occupation’s ANZSCO unit group.

For example, if you are skilled as a Finance Manager (occupation code 132211), you must have a minimum point score of 110 and 3 years of eligible skilled work experience to be considered in an invitation round.

NSW Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) Nomination guidelines

NSW 190 Visa Nomination Guidelines 2022/2023

UPDATED 10/12/2022

The Federal Government retains ultimate responsibility for Australia’s migration program, including the allocation of available places across program streams and making decisions on visa applications.

Previously published points scores and work experience guides for the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) have been removed due to increased availability of the Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189) by the Department of Home Affairs.

NSW uses a selection-based invitation process to ensure that NSW nominees are aligned with the skills needs of the state’s economy.

Nomination for this visa is exceptionally competitive. We strongly encourage you to consider all other migration pathways on the Home Affairs website and do not wait to be invited to apply for NSW nomination.

See Common questions about skilled visas page for answers to a full list of our most commonly received questions.

Basic eligibility

To be considered for NSW nomination, at a minimum, you must meet the following basic criteria:

  • Meet all requirements outlined by Home Affairs for this visa
  • Be skilled in an occupation that is:
    • within an ANZSCO unit group identified on the NSW skills list for this visa; AND
    • is eligible for the visa
  • Be currently residing in NSW, or offshore, and have continuously done so for a minimum period of six months
  • Have submitted an EOI SkillSelect seeking nomination for the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) only and NSW only

Key steps

  1. Confirm you are eligible for this visa
  2. Confirm you meet the NSW basic eligibility criteria outlined above
  3. Complete an EOI in SkillSelect ensuring that all information is accurate
  4. Be invited to apply for NSW nomination – because of the overwhelming demand for NSW nomination, the vast majority of migrants seeking nomination will not be invited
  5. If invited, apply for NSW nomination within 14 days and provide evidence for all points claims in your SkillSelect EOI and where you currently reside

Invitation rounds

Invitation rounds occur ongoing throughout the financial year. There are no set dates, and rounds are not announced beforehand.

We cannot advise the date of upcoming invitation rounds or the provide the likelihood your SkillSelect EOI will be invited to apply for nomination.

We generally consider such things as points score, English proficiency, and years of skilled experience during invitation rounds. Being invited to apply for NSW nomination is at the sole discretion of the NSW Government.

When you submit, or amend, your SkillSelect EOI does not affect your likelihood of being invited to apply for NSW nomination.

Common reasons applications are declined after being invited to apply

Common reasons why applications are declined include where an applicant:

Overclaimed skilled employment

For the purpose of NSW nomination, you may only claim employment that is:

  • after the date you have been deemed skilled by your skills assessor (if applicable), or
  • after the date you have completed your qualifying study

If you claim employment in your SkillSelect EOI before the date you are deemed skilled in your occupation, you are not eligible to apply for NSW nomination if invited. There are no exceptions for any reason.

Does not meet the residency requirement

You must be currently residing in NSW, or offshore, and have done so for a minimum period of six months to be eligible for NSW nomination.

Could not provide evidence for all claims in EOI

It is the responsibility of the EOI owner to ensure they can provide evidence for all the claims in their SkillSelect EOI. This includes:

  • Claiming points for skilled employment before the date you are deemed skilled in your occupation (see below)
  • Claiming credentialled community language points when your qualification has expired. Your CCL certificate must be valid on the day you are invited to apply by NSW to claim these points
  • Claiming professional year points when you are not eligible. Your professional year must:
    • be in your nominated (or closely related) occupation; and
    • have commenced within 4 years of the day you were invited to apply

Important information about providing false documents

NSW nominates applicants for the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) to support its economy and communities through the settlement of highly skilled migrants who are committed to living and working in NSW long term.

The providing of falsified or misleading information to NSW with your application is taken very seriously.

Any instances of fraudulent activity will be reported to Home Affairs and/or NSW Police and may result in any nomination being withdrawn and/or visa canceled.

Alternative migration pathways

NSW nomination for the Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) is just one of a number of visa options for prospective skilled migrants. There are a range of visas offered by Home Affairs, including both temporary and permanent employer nominated visas.

  • Was your baby born in Australia? Yes
  • Was one parent an Australian citizen, a permanent residence visa holder, or an eligible New Zealand citizen at the time of the baby’s birth? No
  • Did one parent hold a temporary visa at the time of the baby’s birth? For example, a Student (subclass 500) visa or temporary work (subclass 457 or 482) visas. Yes

If your circumstances are like the above questions, the Australian immigration says:

Your baby’s status

Upon receipt of the information of your baby’s birth and required documents by the department, your baby will be considered to hold any visa(s) that you and the other parent held when the baby was born.

Your baby will also be added to any unfinalised visa applications you may have before the Department at the time of your baby’s birth.

Your baby is not an Australian citizen or a permanent resident.

Tell Immigration about your baby

You must tell the immigration about your baby as soon as possible (even if they don’t have a passport yet) so they can determine whether your baby can be added to your current visa and any pending visa applications you have.

If the baby doesn’t have a passport yet, you can give us copies of your baby’s passport pages later. However, you must send them as soon as you can.

Using ImmiAccount

If you currently have a visa application in ImmiAccount that is not yet finalised, sign in to ImmiAccount and upload these documents:

By post

If your visa application in ImmiAccount is finalised or you did not apply for your visa via ImmiAccount, post these documents to your nearest Departmental office.

We recommend you send them by express or registered post so you can track their delivery.

Cost

It is free to add your baby to your visa. It is also free to add your baby to an unfinalised visa application and/or to link the visa to their passport.

Terms and conditions

Your baby’s visa(s) will have the same terms and conditions as per the visa(s) that you and the other parent held when the baby was born. This includes any Bridging visa(s).

Your baby must comply with the terms and conditions of their visa(s) like both of you.

What happens next

The department will let you know if you need to do anything else. When you have given the department everything they need, they will include the baby in any unfinalised visa applications you have before the Department, and the baby will be assessed along with yourself and any other dependents for a decision on your visa.

Your baby must, also, meet all requirements for visa grant. For example, this includes:

  • being included in a sponsorship (where applicable)
  • meeting the health requirement
  • having a valid passport for travel (where applicable).

If you do not tell the department about your baby:

  • you cannot access Visa Entitlement Verification Online (VEVO) for your baby
  • you and your baby might be delayed at the airport if your baby attempts to travel
  • your baby’s immigration status might be adversely impacted. This could, in turn, adversely impact your own immigration status

What if my visa application has already been refused by the time I notify the department of my baby’s birth?

In such cases, you must still notify the department of your baby’s birth as soon as possible, even if your baby does not have a passport yet.

Your baby’s visa application will most likely be refused as well. This will, however, allow your baby to also seek merits review where applicable and ensure that your baby remains lawful in Australia while the application(s) for merits review is being considered.

If your baby has not had a refusal in their own right, the merits review tribunal will most likely have no jurisdiction to consider your baby’s application for merits review until the Department has refused your baby first.

Applying for another visa

First, you need to tell the department about the baby as soon as possible, even if the baby does not have a passport yet.

Next, the department can link the baby’s current visa to their passport.

Then, if you apply for a temporary or permanent visa after your baby’s birth, you can include your baby in your application.

If you cannot obtain a passport for your baby, please contact the immigration office.

NSW Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) Nomination guidelines

NSW Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) Nomination Guidelines

NSW Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) Nomination Guidelines

A permanent visa for points tested skilled workers who are nominated by a state or territory government agency.

NSW uses a selection-based invitation process to ensure that NSW nominees are aligned to the skills needs of the state’s economy. You cannot directly apply.

NSW Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190) is highly competitive due to the high demand, and the limited number of places available.

Consequently, we strongly recommend you consider all migration pathways and visa options available.

Invitation rounds

Invitation rounds occur ongoing throughout the Australian financial year. There are no set dates, and they are not announced beforehand. NSW cannot advise the date of upcoming NSW invitation rounds by phone or email.

Minimum eligibility

To receive nomination for a Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) visa, you must meet the following minimum eligibility requirements:

SkillSelect point score

You must be eligible to claim at least 65 points in your SkillSelect EOI. Please refer to the Home Affairs points calculator to see what points you are eligible to claim.

Age

You must be under 45 years of age to apply for the Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) visa.

English language

You must have at least a competent level of English (or equivalent).

If you are a citizen of the USA, UK, Canada, Republic of Ireland or New Zealand you are not required to complete an English assessment.

Residency

You must be currently residing in NSW and either be:

  • currently employed in NSW where your employment meets the standard for claiming skilled employment in your nominated occupation, or
    have genuinely resided in NSW for the past three months

Occupation and employment

You must hold a valid skills assessment in an occupation that exactly matches an occupation on the NSW subclass 190 visa occupation list.

You are not required to be currently, or previously, employed in NSW in your occupation to be eligible for NSW nomination.

Key steps for NSW Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190) Nomination

1 Submit an Expression of Interest

Submit an EOI in SkillSelect, selecting either ‘NSW’ or ‘Any’ as your desired state.

You do not need to contact the NSW Government after you have submitted your EOI. You will only receive correspondence from NSW if you are invited to apply.

Be aware that most candidates will not be invited to apply for NSW nomination as the number of candidates far exceeds the places available.

Please see our skilled visa FAQs website to see what employment you are eligible to claim in your EOI. 

2 Be invited to apply

NSW uses a ranking-based invitation process – you cannot directly apply for NSW nomination.

NSW will not issue invitations on the basis of visas expiring, losing points or eligibility, or living and working in NSW.

3 Read your invitation email

Your invitation email contains lots of useful information about how to successfully apply for NSW nomination, including how to troubleshoot common problems. The email is sent from noreply@salesforce.com on behalf of skilled.migration@treasury.nsw.gov.au. You are responsible for ensuring you can receive your invitation email – invitations will not be reissued.

4 Gather your documents

Gather the required documents to support your EOI points claims and your evidence of NSW residency.

5 Apply

Apply for NSW nomination by accessing the invitation link emailed to you within 14 days. Invitation links are sent to the email address contained in your SkillSelect EOI.

How invitation rounds work

Invitation rounds occur ongoing throughout the Australian financial year. There are no set dates, and they are not announced beforehand.

In an invitation round, EOIs in are ranked within an occupation by:

  1. Point score,
  2. English proficiency, then
  3. Years of skilled work experience in your nominated occupation.

The highest ranking EOIs, up to the number of places available for a given occupation, are generally issued an invitation to apply. When an EOI was submitted or amended, does not affect its ranking.

NSW will not respond to requests for the date of upcoming invitation rounds.

Because of the fluid nature of the NSW SkillSelect candidate pool, we cannot predict what point score/English score/work experience will be sufficient to be invited in future invitation rounds.

Candidates will not be prioritised on the basis of visas expiring, losing points or eligibility, or living and working in NSW.
