In this article, we will be talking about Tasmania's 190 nomination criteria.
State nomination and your application for a visa are two separate processes. The Tasmanian Government assesses your application for state nomination, and the Department of Home Affairs to assesses your Visa application.
1. Meeting the minimum nomination requirements published on this website does not guarantee that you will be offered a Tasmanian nomination. Only the most competitive Registrations of Interest will be selected to be invited to apply for nomination.
2. Candidates nominated for a Subclass 491 Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa will not be nominated for a permanent Subclass 190 Skilled Nominated visa in the future.
3. If you or any family members (including those who don't apply for nomination with you) owe fees to Tasmanian Government agencies, such as for education or health, the debt must be paid, or arrangements for payment must be made prior to seeking the nomination. You will not be eligible for nomination until the debt has been paid or the agency has accepted a payment plan.
EOI- Expression of interest
ROI - Registration of interest Registration is free and valid for six months. You may register again if you are not invited to apply for nomination and your registration expires.
Nomination application- There is a non-refundable fee of $300 (plus $30 GST if in Australia) to apply for nomination.
You must meet the minimum nomination requirements for your chosen pathway to register your interest and be considered for nomination.
The priority attributes for each pathway are not required, but they will make you more competitive for a limited number of nominations.
The more attributes you have, the better your chances of nomination and the sooner you may be invited to apply for nomination.
When you register in the Gateway, depending upon your priority attributes, you will be given a Gold, Green, or Orange Pass, which will indicate your priority status. If you receive a Gold Pass, you can immediately apply for nomination. You will be invited to apply within the next six weeks if you receive a Green Pass. If you are given an Orange Pass, you may be invited to apply for nomination within the next six months, depending upon the volume of interest Tasmania has received and how many of the priority attributes you have. Suppose you are not invited to apply within six months. In that case, your registration will expire, and you will need to complete a new registration in the Gateway to be considered for a nomination invitation.
There are four nomination pathways for a 190 visa, each with different requirements and priority attributes that will determine your pass color. You may also need to possess one or more of the Priority Attributes listed for all pathways.
