Update by Migration Tasmania as follows:
Migration Tasmania is currently reviewing program settings and requirements for the 2022-23 program year and is inviting public comment on the proposals.
The proposed reforms to the Tasmanian Skilled Migration State Nomination framework aim to:
- Provide greater clarity for candidates regarding the actions and pathways needed to achieve a successful outcome
- Reward demonstrated ability to settle in Tasmania and skills in need
- The proposed new framework is intended to be clear, objective and reward demonstrated ability to settle in Tasmania, and skills in need
- Acknowledge the importance of the international education in helping to attract future skilled migrants to the state, without driving candidates to complete study unnecessarily
- Encourage longer term residence, proof of settlement in Tasmania and greater confidence in ongoing settlement prospects of nominees.
Once finalised Migration Tasmania will develop new nomination requirements and processes, which will apply to new applications made in the 2022-23 program year.
