The NSW 190 Priority Skilled Occupation List for 2017-18 was recently updated.

The applicants have been invited to apply for Skilled Nominated Subclass 190 visa which allows visa holders to live and work in Australia on a permanent basis.

The revised list is based on the advice and demand of the Department of Industry and the present availability of job-related skills.

The occupations figuring on the Priority Skilled Occupation list hold good for state nomination, which awards five additional points to the applicants in the overall score on the point table in the visa application process. The top-ranking applicants on the list are invited first to submit their application for a visa paving the way for Australia immigration. The NSW Department of Industry says the process is always in progress and changes are incorporated in it depending on the economy requirements.

Eligible applicants when they receive the state nomination can submit their application for visa subclass 190, which is held as a skilled nominated permanent visa to Australia.

Successful nominees must live and work in NSW for two years minimum when they are in Australia on this visa.
