Statistician in Victoria — nomination overview
Statistician (ANZSCO 224113) is listed on the Medium and Long-Term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), qualifying it for state nomination in Victoria under Victoria's Skilled and Business Migration program. SkillSelect applicants with a valid Expression of Interest may receive an invitation during Victoria's skilled migration rounds. Victoria nominates Statisticians to meet demand from government agencies, research institutions, universities, health services, and data analytics businesses throughout Greater Melbourne and regional Victoria. The Subclass 190 Skilled Nominated visa is the permanent pathway available; Victoria does not offer the Subclass 491 Skilled Work Regional visa. A successful nomination adds five points to the applicant's SkillSelect score, which can be pivotal in a competitive invitation round. VETASSESS conducts the skills assessment for Statistician, evaluating academic qualifications and relevant statistical work experience against Australian standards. Applicants must demonstrate English language proficiency through an approved test. Health and character requirements must be met. Nomination processing in Victoria typically takes four to ten weeks, after which standard visa fees are payable to the Department of Home Affairs. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
