NSW Skilled Occupation List 2025
The nsw 190 occupation list is a skilled migration permanent residency visa targeted at professionals who already live and work in Victoria with skills that help the economic recovery of Victoria. The visa is administered by the Home Affairs Department.
You will need to make or upgrade an EOI via SkillSelect and then submit a Register of Interest for nsw 491 occupation list or 190 Visa NSW on the Live website in order to be selected to apply for a Qualified Nominated (subclass 190) visa nomination. The Registration of Interest for NSW occupation list page offers more information on the criteria and steps for registering your interest.
NSW will initially run a shorter and more focused interim qualified NSW occupation list (subclass 190 and NSW 491) programme, since we only have a very small number of interim visa nomination places available before full visa nomination allocation numbers are finalised.
