Subclass 190 Skilled Nominated Visa
Live Permanently in Australia with State Nomination
The Subclass 190 Visa is a permanent residency visa for skilled workers nominated by an Australian state or territory government. It allows individuals with in-demand occupations to live and work anywhere in the nominating state permanently. Unlike the Subclass 491, this visa provides direct access to PR and all the benefits that come with it—including healthcare, education, and the freedom to travel or sponsor family members.
At Oz Career Gurus, we specialize in helping skilled migrants achieve permanent residency through accurate points evaluation, expert guidance on nomination pathways, and comprehensive visa preparation.
