Registrations of Interest are now being accepted for the 2025-26 Tasmanian Skilled Migration State Nomination Program

The Australian Government has not yet finalised state and territory nomination allocations.

However, in anticipation of receiving an allocation, the Tasmanian Skilled Migration State Nomination Program will open on 6 October 2025.

New settings and processing arrangements will apply. Details are on our website HERE.

The Migration Tasmania Application Gateway is undergoing maintenance and updates. We expect that it will be open to new Registrations of Interest by close of business 10 October 2025.

Program Changes and New Features

Following analysis of program outcomes and stakeholder feedback, updates have been made to improve the application process, clarify requirements and priorities, and manage program risks.

Key changes include:

• An easier to navigate website
• Updated and clearer minimum eligibility criteria
• Updated priority attributes
• A revised ROI ranking system
• Changes to income thresholds based on updates to Australian median and average earnings and the Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold
• Simplified and clearer detailed policy guidance in the Additional Information, Exclusions and Definitions section of the Migration Tasmania website
• The service fee to apply for nomination has increased to $370 ($407 including GST). There remains no charge to submit a Registration of Interest.

Detailed information about the changes can be found HERE 

Candidates who have submitted an ROI in the last six months may wish to withdraw it and submit a new one, as the changes to priority attribute ranking criteria may significantly improve chances of selection.
