Dietitian — South Australia Nomination

Dietitian in South Australia — nomination overview

Dietitian (ANZSCO 251111) appears on the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL) and is eligible for state nomination in South Australia under the South Australian Skilled Migration program. Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once South Australia opens invitations for this occupation. South Australia actively recruits dietitians for SA Health public hospitals, community health services, and aged care providers, with particular vacancies in regional areas. Skills assessment is conducted by Dietitians Australia (DA), which evaluates overseas dietetic qualifications and clinical practice against Australian standards. Supervised practice or a bridging program may be required. English language proficiency and health and character requirements apply. Two nomination pathways are available: the Subclass 190 Skilled Nominated visa, granting permanent residence on grant, and the Subclass 491 Skilled Work Regional visa, a provisional visa requiring three years of regional residence and employment before the applicant can apply for the Subclass 191 permanent visa. State nomination adds five points for Subclass 190 or fifteen points for Subclass 491. Processing in South Australia typically takes a few weeks to two months. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
