Updated List of State Nominated Occupations for Western Australia

Western Australia is the largest state of Australia (the 6th largest country in the world) and yet, its population density lies amongst the lowest in the world. You will be surprised to know that more than 35% of the 2.5 million people who live in WA were born overseas. Naturally, Western Australia respects cultural diversity and upholds highest standards of egalitarian spirit.

Perth is the capital of Western Australia and it enjoys a Mediterranean climate with mild winters and warm to hot summers. Besides its central business district, there is a vibrant entertainment district called Northbridge where you'll find several famous restaurants, cafés, and bars. This area is known for its thriving festivals and exciting nightlife.

The regional areas of Western Australia offer you a peaceful and relaxed lifestyle well-tempered with top-notch infrastructure and services. Around here, you will find forests and vineyards as well as white sandy beaches.

Western Australia is a heaven for skilled and experienced workers. Skilled visas (including both temporary and permanent visas) rule Australia’s migration program with almost a two-thirds majority.

If your occupation is on the Western Australia occupation list or the Graduation Occupation List, you may vie for the Western Australia state sponsorship or nomination and apply for visa 190 or visa 489 (which require you to be nominated by the state).

NEW PRIORITY MIGRATION SKILLED OCCUPATION LIST ANNOUNCED:

A new priority skills list (PMSOL) and strengthened labour market testing will allow small numbers of sponsored skilled workers to return to Australia to fill urgent skills needs in critical sectors, helping to create Australian jobs and rebuild Australia’s economy. The 17 occupations on the Priority Migration Skilled Occupation List (PMSOL) were based on advice from the National Skills Commission and consultation with relevant Commonwealth agencies and will be reviewed regularly. These occupations in the health care, construction and IT sectors will supercharge both health and economic response to COVID-19. Minister for Employment, Skills, Small and Family Business, Senator the Hon Michaelia Cash said the PMSOL would be complemented by strengthened labour market testing requirements. In addition to the current requirements of two national advertisements, employers must also advertise their vacancy on the Government’s job active website.

Existing skilled migration occupation lists will remain active and visas will still be processed, but priority will be given to those in occupations on the PMSOL.

The 17 occupations (ANZSCO code) are:

  • Chief Executive or Managing Director (111111)
  • Construction Project Manager (133111)
  • Mechanical Engineer (233512)
  • General Practitioner (253111)
  • Resident Medical Officer (253112)

Update on Canada Migration: Recently Canada has issued 4200 invitations (highest since pandemic) in its 3rd All-Program Express Entry draw including the FSW Program applicants which means that despite travel bans, Canada is still inviting the eligible foreign skilled workers. Surprisingly, IRCC is increasingly inviting foreign skilled workers with all-program draws. Interestingly, Canada has issued 69950 ITAs in 2020 and they are expected to invite 1 Million new skilled immigrants (including FSW Program Applicants) by 2021.

Based on the assessment of current trends of the Issuance of the ITAs by IRCC, it’s predicted that there will be huge surge of invitations and approvals in Canada in coming months despite the travel restrictions. According to Travel Norms issued by Canadian Government, Citizens, Permanent Residents, Approved Applicants are allowed to enter Canada with mandatory quarantine for 14 days.
