AUSTRALIA SKILLED NOMINATED VISA (SUBCLASS 190)

The Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190) is a type of visa that enables skilled workers nominated by an Australian state or territory government to reside and work in Australia permanently. This visa is intended for individuals who possess skills and qualifications in occupations that are in high demand in Australia and who have received a nomination from a state or territory government. Expression of Interest (EOI) is the first step in applying for the point-based Australia Skilled Nominated Visa. Applicants must indicate their interest in migrating to Australia under the subclass 190 visa category by submitting an EOI through the Department of Home Affairs Skill Select system. Once an applicant receives a nomination from a state or territory government, they can apply for the visa. Candidates must meet the conditions established by the nominating state or territory in order to be considered for nomination. These requirements may include having a specific amount of work experience, being fluent in English, and successfully passing a skills exam in the nominated occupation. Additionally, candidates must satisfy the basic requirements for eligibility for the subclass 190 visa. Once granted, the subclass 190 visa entitles the applicant to enroll in Medicare, Australia's national healthcare program, and to live and work in the country permanently. The ability to apply for Australian citizenship may also be available to those with a visa who fulfill certain residency conditions.
