There are small changes for nomination requirements for 2021-2022 in TAS. Here are the changes.
Tasmanian Graduates (Category 1)
Employment is not required for this category. However, evidence of employment or business operation will be prioritized in the assessment process. Evidences are:
- The employer is well established and has been operating in Tasmania for at least 12 months.
- The employment has been for more than 3 months in duration
- The business owned by the applicant has been operating for at least 6 months, or
- Where candidates have been employed in the dairy, meat, accommodation, logistics or farming industry for at least the previous 6 months prior to lodging their application for nomination, they should have completed relevant industry training of at least Cert III (or equivalent training provided by industry peak bodies)

Working in Tasmania (Category 2)
(1) 3 months minimum TSOL employment
Candidates who have a skills assessment for an occupation on the Tasmanian Skilled Occupation List will be eligible for subclass 491 nomination after working in a related position for a minimum of three months.
(2) Acknowledgement of sponsor employer for current subclass 482 holders
To help demonstrate a genuine intention to settle in Tasmania, applicants who currently hold a Temporary Skill Shortage visa (subclass 482) and who have worked less than 12 months with their Tasmanian-based sponsoring employer must provide a letter of support from their current sponsoring employer.
(3) Additional guidance regarding a well-established business operating in Tasmania
A well-established business actively operating in Tasmania would be normally be expected to have:
- Permanent business signage
- An active / ongoing online presence, advertising and marketing
- A Tasmanian address as a registered business location
- A local landline contact number
- An ongoing office space (not a residential address) that is not casual or virtual (including corporate / co-shared offices), and
- Permanent representation of employees at the stated business location.
- Semi-skilled employment demonstrating development prospects through industry-based training
A period of industry-based training while working with their employer may demonstrate career development prospects for lower skilled employment or substitute for existing qualifications not available in larger population centres. For more information, visit here.
The place is limited. Subclass 491 for 2,200 people and Subclass 190 for 1,100 people. It is expected that there are 500 places which will be spent for applications from the last financial year 2020-2021. In addition, they also accept offshore applicants as well. From this, it Is easily expected that the competition will be fierce. However, there is an interesting system as well. They speculate that high calibre subclass 491 category applicants may be considered for subclass 190 nomination.
We recommend you to get professional support from immigration agents and lawyers. Migration system is so complicated that many more people are likely to fail without such assistance and deep knowledge regarding immigration law. AMS has supported people getting PR (including subclass 190 & 491) and job placement. For more information, visit our website and book a consultation.
