NSW 190 Occupation List | Skilled Nominated Visa Subclass 190

New South Wales runs a skilled immigration program that seeks qualified applicants who score highly in the occupations summarised on the NSW 190 occupation list. To attract more highly skilled immigrants under subclass 190, the state remains open throughout the year for selection of candidates under the New South Wales Nomination Program (190).

Candidates whose profile is in high demand in NSW, and who match the skills required in the New South Wales Occupation List (190), can receive an invitation from the state for nomination under the subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated Visa).

New South Wales uses a selection-based invitation process, in which the state selects and invites suitable immigrants from SkillSelect to apply for state nomination under the NSW Occupation List (190). This helps ensure resources are allocated correctly according to the needs of the state economy.
