190 Visa

The Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190) is a permanent residency visa that allows skilled workers to live and work in Australia. This visa is designed for individuals who have an occupation listed on the Skilled Occupation List (SOL) and who are nominated by a state or territory government in Australia.

The subclass 190 visa allows you to:

• Live and work in Australia permanently.
• Access Medicare, Australia’s public healthcare system.
• Apply for Australian citizenship after meeting residency requirements.
• Sponsor eligible family members to come to Australia.

As a state-nominated visa, it requires that you receive a nomination from an Australian state or territory, which may have specific occupation needs and other requirements. This makes the subclass 190 visa an excellent option for applicants whose skills are in demand in particular regions of Australia.
