Each state and territory government have their own processes for nomination in addition to the criterion under the Migration Act, the process is complicated and if you do not approach it the correct way the first time, the consequences may be devastating and include possible entry/visa bars to Australia. We recommend that you book an appointment for an assessment.
State nomination requirements include:
- Commitment to South Australia – You need to commit to living and working in South Australia for two years from when you arrive, with a view to long-term settlement
- Age – under 45 years at the time of nomination
- Occupation – this must be listed on the State Nominated Occupation List as available. Access to a supplementary occupation list and ‘special conditions apply’ occupations are available in some circumstances.
- Skills Assessment – a positive General Skilled Migration skills assessment from the relevant authority
- Work experience – at least one year of skilled work experience in the last three years. Some occupations have a higher work experience requirement. If you are an international graduate of South Australia, you may be able to access a work experience waiver
- English – ability to meet Immigration SA’s minimum English language requirement for your occupation. If you are a passport holder or citizen of the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada or New Zealand, you don’t need to provide an English test result
- Financial capacity – sufficient funds to settle in South Australia
- SkillSelect Expression of Interest (EOI) - you need to have an EOI which meets the Department of Home Affairs criteria and Immigration SA nomination requirements.
