Tasmanian Skilled Migration State Nomination Program Update - July 2026

FY 2026-27 Program Allocations A total of 2050 nomination places have been issued to Tasmania this year, comprising: - Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) visa: 1250 places - Skilled Work Regional (subclass 491) visa: 800 places Tasmaniaโ€™s Skilled Migration State Nomination Program will reopen to new Registrations of Interest in the coming weeks, with details to be announced soon.

You can monitor the Migration Tasmania site for the latest information regarding the 2026-27 program. Details will also be announced in this newsletter.

Once the program reopens, please carefully read the 2026-27 program settings and guidelines for any changes.

Nomination applications lodged but not yet decided

If you have lodged an application for nomination but have not received an outcome, Migration Tasmania will continue to process your application against the requirements in place at the time you lodged your application. If approved, applicants will be nominated in SkillSelect.

Subclass 491 applicants seeking subclass 190 nomination

Applications for subclass 491 nomination that have been lodged but not yet decided will not be considered for subclass 190 nomination. If you wish to be considered for subclass 190 nomination you will need to withdraw your current application and register for subclass 190 when the 2026-27 program opens.

A new invitation to apply for subclass 190 nomination will depend upon the level of interest and the number of pro-rata places available at the time.

@gregormendel This means we will see new 491 visa lodgements this year and perhaps most will be for priority occupations...That's means the backlog won't get cleared and non priority applicants already waiting will have to wait more and similarly offshore ones will also face extremely long processing time if the ministerial direction 105 remains in place
