Human Resource Manager — Subclass 190 Pathway

Human Resource Manager × Subclass 190 — pathway overview

Human Resource Manager (ANZSCO 132311) qualifies for the Subclass 190 Skilled Nominated visa through its listing on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL). The Subclass 190 is a permanent points-tested visa requiring both a positive skills assessment and a state or territory government nomination. Applicants must register an Expression of Interest in SkillSelect and receive a nomination invitation from a participating state or territory. Individual state programs assess local demand for human resource management skills and may give priority to applicants with existing connections to the nominating state. Skills assessment for Human Resource Managers is typically conducted by the Australian Human Resources Institute (AHRI), which evaluates qualifications and professional experience against occupational standards. Key requirements include achieving the minimum 65 points under the points test (competitive effective minimums are generally higher), being under 45 years of age at invitation, demonstrating competent English (IELTS 6 or equivalent), and committing to live and work in the nominating state for at least two years post-grant. State nomination adds five points. Application fees start from approximately $4,640 and processing typically takes eight to fourteen months. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
