Victoria will be opening it’s 2020-21 Victorian skilled visa nomination program (subclass 190 and 491) on 5 January 2021.
Victoria will also be changing the way they select applicants to apply for Victorian visa nomination, with a new process that will focus on talent and contribution to Victoria’s economic recovery, as well as information in your Expression of Interest (EOI). This change aims to be responsive to challenges posed by the coronavirus pandemic, with a focus on the state’s economic recovery.
Victoria will now be accepting ROIs in submission windows – set timeframes in which you can submit your ROIs. Once a submission window closes, you will need to wait for the next submission window to submit your ROI.
If you are not selected immediately after your submission window, you will still be considered for future selection.
