Offshore candidates in NSW are those who continuously lived outside Australia for the past three months and hold a valid skills assessment for occupation within an ANZSCO unit group.

New South Wales is inviting select ANZSCO unit groups to apply for Skilled Migration to Australia under Subclass 190. These include

  • engineering managers,
  • health and welfare service managers,
  • production managers,
  • primary and secondary school teachers,
  • pharmacists,
  • dental practitioners,
  • midwives,
  • registered nurses,
  • social workers.

New South Wales has a diverse, and service-oriented economy. It is a densely populated region of Australia with about 8,172,500 residents. Sydney is the capital of NSW and hosts about 64.5 per cent of the entire state residents.

The Australian Government is planning to welcome 160,000 Australian PR visas in the 2021-2022 program year. The program year in Australia runs from July to June.

A successful NSW state nomination can fetch permanent residence in Australia.
