On 13 July 2020, Victoria announced closure of the skilled visa nomination program, for both the Skilled Nominated (Permanent) visa (Subclass 190) and the Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa (Subclass 491), for the 2019-20 program year as the State’s allocated quota has been exhausted.
For 2020-21 program, Victoria is currently closed for accepting any nominations under the Skilled Migration program and the Business Migration Program until the nomination quotas are allocated by the Commonwealth Government. However, the applicants are able to lodge Expression of Interest (EOI) for State nomination under the Skilled Migration program and the State will continue to assess these applications.
