Tasmanian Skilled Migration State Nomination Program Update

Candidates who meet the minimum requirements for one of the nominations pathways AND have at least one gold or green priority attribute can now register their interest in nomination.

Those candidates who meet the minimum requirements but do not have at least one Gold or Green priority attribute will be able to register their interest at a later date.

Gold and green priority attributes – occupation on TOSOL and employment related to skills assessment or study

To qualify for gold or green priority attributes, employment must be skilled (ANZSCO 1-3) and average at least 20 hours per week.

Employment in ANZSCO skill level 4 – 5 roles or averaging between 9 and 19 hours per week may qualify for orange priority attributes.

Online study completed during the COVID-19 emergency

Courses that are registered for on-campus delivery, but which moved to online delivery as result of COVID-19 health directions will be accepted.

However online study completed after 31 July 2022 will not be recognised unless it was due to a state government health direction or the need to isolate as a result of a positive COVID-19 test or close contact notification.

Overseas-gained qualifications related to employment

Qualifications that were gained outside Australia will be recognised regarding relevance to current employment if the overseas institution is a nationally recognised institution in the relevant home country.

Interim Nomination Allocation

Tasmania’s interim allocation for the 2022-23 program year includes:

  • Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) visa: 2000 places
  • Skilled Work Regional (subclass 491) visa: 1350 places
