Reply to @angel4ever: According to the <a href="http://www.immi.gov.au/skills/skillselect/index/visas/subclass-190/">Skillselect website</a>:
<blockquote>Nomination by a state or territory government
State and territory government agencies will have access to SkillSelect. If you are interested in being nominated by a state or territory government for this visa, you should indicate this in your EOI. If you are interested in a particular state you will have an option to indicate this state, or you may choose to be available to all states if you do not have a preference.
<b>If the state/territory government nominates you, you will automatically receive an invitation from SkillSelect to apply for a visa.</b></blockquote>
