NSW Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190) Nomination guidelines

NSW Skills List 2022/2023

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.

For a further explanation of how our skills list works, see the Common questions about skilled visas (/visas-and-migration/skilled-visas/common-questions-about-skilled-visas) page.

NSW 491 visa NSW 491 visa nomination criteria

NSW 491 Visa Nomination Guidelines 2022/2023

UPDATED 10/12/2022

NSW Skilled Work Regional visa (subclass 491) Nomination Guideline 2022/2023

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.

About NSW nomination

NSW nomination for this visa allows skilled migrants to live, work and study in designated regional areas of NSW for a period of 5 years.

There are two pathways to NSW nomination for this visa:

  • Pathway 1 – Apply directly to a Regional Development Australia (RDA) office
  • Pathway 2 – Be invited to apply by Investment NSW

There are two nomination streams under Pathway 1, these are:

  • Stream A – Established work history with a regional NSW-based employer
  • Stream B – My skills are required in regional NSW

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

Nomination criteria

To be eligible for NSW nomination, you must meet all eligibility requirements outlined by Home Affairs for this visa. This includes being skilled in an eligible occupation.

Additionally, you must also meet all eligibility for the nomination pathway and/or stream you are seeking nomination. These are outlined below.

Note: You are not eligible for NSW nomination for this visa if you have previously been nominated by NSW for any visa.

Pathway 1 – Apply directly to a Regional Development Australia (RDA) office

The nomination criteria for each nomination stream include:

Stream A – Established work history with a regional NSW-based employer

To apply under this stream, you must be currently living and working in a designated regional area of NSW, and have continuously done so for the past 12 months.

Your qualifying skilled employment in the twelve months immediately before applying must be:

  • In your nominated (or closely related) occupation; and

  • With the same regional NSW-based employer; and

  • Deemed skilled by NSW; and

  • Paid a minimum of the TSMIT salary level of $53,900 (prorated if under 38 hours per week) from your qualifying employer in your nominated (or closely related) occupation

Your nominated occupation must be eligible for the Skilled Work Regional visa (subclass 491).

See our Common questions about skilled visas page for further information about eligibility under this stream.

Stream B – My skilled are required in regional NSW

To be eligible to apply under this stream, you must:

  • Be skilled in an occupation that is:

  • Meet the minimum point score and years of skilled work experience for your ANZSCO unit group

  • Be currently residing in NSW, or offshore, and have continuously done so for a minimum period of three months

Minimum point scores and years of skilled work experience are outlined for each ANSZCO unit group on the Stream B skills list.

Regional NSW study exemption

You are exempt from the minimum work experience requirement under Stream B if you:

  • Completed study in regional NSW within the most recent 24 months before applying; and
  • Your study is related to your nominated (or closely related) occupation; and
  • Your study in regional NSW makes you eligible to claim points for Study in regional Australia.

Pathway 2 – Be invited to apply by Investment NSW

To be considered for NSW nomination under Pathway 2 you must:

  • Be skilled in an occupation that is:

  • Be currently residing in NSW, or offshore, and have continuously done so for a minimum period of three months

  • Have submitted an EOI in SkillSelect seeking nomination for the Skilled Work Regional visa (subclass 491) only and NSW only

Previously published points scores and work experience guides for the Skilled Work Regional visa (subclass 491) have been removed for Pathway 2 due to increased availability of the Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189) by the Department of Home Affairs.

Pathway 2 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 NSW invitation rounds or the likelihood your SkillSelect EOI will be invited by contacting our office.

Meeting the minimum nomination outlined above in no way guarantees you will be invited to apply for NSW nomination.

Because being invited to apply is highly competitive, we strongly encourage anyone seeking NSW nomination to explore all other migration pathways and do not wait to be invited by NSW.

Nomination process

How to apply or be considered for NSW nomination is different for each nomination pathway:

Pathway 1 – Apply directly to a Regional Development Australia (RDA) office

To apply directly for NSW nomination under Pathway 1 you must:

  1. Confirm you are eligible for this visa with Home Affairs
  2. Confirm you meet all eligibility requirements for your chosen nomination stream outlined above
  3. Complete an EOI in SkillSelect ensuring that all information is accurate and that your EOI is seeking nomination for the Skilled Work Regional (subclass 491) only and NSW only
  4. Complete your application fee payment directly with the RDA office in your chosen nominating region
  5. Apply for NSW nomination using our online application form
  6. Wait up to six weeks for your application outcome

Pathway 2 – Be invited to apply by Investment NSW

To be considered for NSW nomination under Pathway 2 you must:

  1. Confirm you are eligible for this visa with Home Affairs
  2. Confirm you meet all pathway eligibility requirements outlined above
  3. Complete an EOI in SkillSelect ensuring that all information is accurate and that your EOI is seeking nomination for the Skilled Work Regional (subclass 491) only and NSW only
  4. Wait to be invited to apply – because of the high demand for NSW nomination, most migrants seeking nomination will unfortunately not be invited
  5. If invited, apply for NSW nomination directly to Investment NSW using the link provided to you by email
  6. Wait up to six weeks for your application outcome

Common reasons applications are declined

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

Participating RDA offices

Important information about providing false documents

NSW nominates applicants for the Skilled Work Regional visa (subclass 491) to support its regional economies and communities through the settlement of highly skilled migrants who are committed to living and working in regional NSW long term.

Providing falsified or misleading information to NSW in support of your claims against our nomination criteria is taken very seriously.

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

Alternative migration pathways

NSW nomination for the Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 491) is just one of a number of visa options for prospective skilled migrants.

 *Designated regional postcodes within the RDA Sydney area available on the Home Affairs website.

The Migration program is designed to achieve a range of economic and social outcomes. The program is set annually, with the total places available capped at a ceiling of 160,000 for 2020-21. The total program is broken down into the following streams:

  • Skill – designed to improve the productive capacity of the economy and fill skill shortages in the labour market, including those in regional Australia. In 2020-21, the Skill stream has 79,600 places allocated.​
  • Family – is predominately made up of Partner visas, enabling Australians to reunite with family members from overseas, and provide them with pathways to citizenship (77,300 places in 2020-21).
  • Special Eligibility – this covers visas for those in special circumstances. This can include permanent residents returning to Australia after a period away, and is the smallest stream (100 places in 2020-21).
  • At least 3,000 Child places will be available in 2020-21.

Occupation ceilings 2019/2020

Occupation ceilings

This document is published to give the readers an idea of the occupation ceilings & the number of invitations on the previous year. You can use this data to plan your studies & training accordingly.

Click Here to Check Current Occupation Ceilings for the 2020/2021 Program year.

 

An ‘occupation ceiling’ might be applied to invitations issued under the independent, skilled regional (provisional) visas. This means there will be a limit on how many EOIs can be selected for skilled migration from an occupation group. This ensures that the skilled migration program is not dominated by a small number of occupations. Once this limit is reached, no further invitations for that particular occupation group will be issued for that program year. Invitations will then be allocated to intending migrants in other occupation groups even if they are lower ranking.

The table below shows the occupation ceilings for the 2019-2020 program year for each occupation on the list of eligible skilled occupations by the four-digit ANZSCO code unit group.

Occupation ceiling values are based on a percentage of stock employment figures for each occupation. Stock employment figures are provided by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, and represent the number of people employed in Australia in each occupation.

Occupation ceilings do not apply to State or Territory Nominated, Employer Sponsored or Business Innovation and Investment visa subclasses.

Occupation ceilings for the 2019-20 program year.
