The Australian Government has issued Tasmania’s allocation for the state and territory nominated visa categories for the 2023-24 program year.
The allocations are:
- Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) visa: 600 places
- Skilled Work Regional (subclass 491) visa: 600 places
No new nomination allocations have been provided for the Business Innovation and Investment Program (BIIP) in the 2023-24 program year for any jurisdiction.
This allocation is significantly lower than anticipated. The Department of Home Affairs has advised that reductions have been enacted across the entire State and Territory Nominated Program due to the large number of visa applications on-hand following the high quotas and subsequent number of nominations issued in 2022-23.
We understand that this will be of significant concern to many current and prospective applicants. We are continuing to engage with the Australian Government on this matter.
