Visa 491 Australia

from VEM · host VEM

VEM explains Visa 491 Australia as a five-year provisional pathway for skilled workers nominated by a state/territory or sponsored by an eligible regional family member. Additional Information: Visa 491 AustraliaSource: https://vemvisa.com/en/subclass-491-visa/Eligibility requires under 45 at invitation, a valid skills assessment for the nominated occupation, at least Competent English, and a points score of 65 or more including 15 points for nomination or sponsorship. An EOI via SkillSelect is mandatory; only invited applicants may lodge the visa. State programs add criteria: NSW runs employment, investment and regional graduate streams; Victoria uses an EOI plus Registration of Interest and may close ROIs yearly; South Australia operates multiple onshore and offshore nomination streams. Costs start from AUD 6,140 for the main applicant; other fees include health checks, police certificates and translations. The visa carries condition 8579 requiring living, working and studying in designated regional areas; compliance is essential for eligibility for the Permanent Residence (Skilled Regional) visa 191, which also requires meeting ATO income evidence for specified years. Use the official points calculator and current skilled occupation lists before lodging. Historical references to AUD 53,900 do not set a universal salary requirement for this visa; that figure relates to older employer-nomination thresholds. Verify state nomination rules and regional postcodes on official government pages to avoid delays or unsuitable applications.Vietnam Office: SAV.6-03.06 The Sun Avenue, 28 Mai Chi Tho Street, Binh Trung Ward, Ho Chi Minh City, VietnamAustralia Office: Level 24–25, 108 St Georges Terrace, Perth WA 6000, AustraliaVietnam Hotline: 0909 112 310Australia Hotline: (+61) 865 578 833Website: https://vemvisa.comEmail: [email protected] more:https://vemvisavietnam.blogspot.com/2026/07/visa-491-australia.htmlhttps://sites.google.com/view/vemvisa/cac-loai-visa-uc/visa-tay-nghe-uc/visa-491-australiahttps://vemvisa.wixsite.com/vemvisavn/post/visa-491-australiahttps://br.pinterest.com/pin/616711742772339912https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:share:7479838217614090240/
