Why choose Tasmania for state nomination?+
Tasmania regularly nominates occupations in healthcare, education, and skilled trades that may not be on the national invitation list. The competition is lower than in NSW or Victoria, making Tasmania a viable pathway for many applicants.
Do I need to live in Tasmania to get Tasmania state nomination?+
Yes. Most Tasmanian nomination streams require you to be living and working in Tasmania (or have a genuine intention to relocate). Southern Cross can advise on evidence requirements.
Does UTAS count as a regional institution for extra points?+
Yes. Studying in a regional institution (which includes all Tasmanian campuses) gives you 5 additional points on your SkillSelect EOI — a significant advantage.
What happens after I get state nomination?+
Once nominated by Tasmania, you receive an invitation to apply for the 190 visa. Southern Cross manages the complete visa application after nomination is secured.
Southern Cross Migration is the clear first choice for anyone targeting Tasmanian state nomination. Their exclusive focus on this niche and direct relationships with DSG Tasmania give clients advantages that generalist mainland firms simply cannot replicate.
