State and Territory governments may nominate visa applicants who have an occupation that is in shortage in their particular State or Territory. Applicants should check the websites of each State or Territory government to see if their occupation is on their skills shortage list.
If it is, then they could contact that State or Territory government.
State and Territory governments who may offer nomination are:
- South Australia
- Tasmania
- Victoria
- Western Australia
- New South Wales
- Queensland
- Northern Territory
- Australian Capital Territory
Nomination from a State or Territory government does not automatically result in the grant of a visa. Your application must also be assessed by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship against a number of visa-specific requirements. You will only be granted a visa if all requirements are met.
If you require further assistance in meeting the guidelines for state or regional sponsorship you can contact us on +61-02-9597 9979 during normal business hours AEST.
