Dietitian — Tasmania Nomination

Dietitian in Tasmania — nomination overview

Dietitian (ANZSCO 251111) appears on the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL) and is eligible for state nomination in Tasmania under the Tasmanian Skilled Nominated scheme. Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once Tasmania opens invitations for this occupation. Tasmania's public health system and aged care sector face ongoing dietitian shortages, and the state welcomes qualified applicants prepared to live and work in Hobart or regional Tasmania. Skills assessment is conducted by Dietitians Australia (DA), which assesses overseas qualifications and clinical experience in dietetics and nutrition practice against Australian professional standards. A supervised practice period or bridging program may be needed before full DA membership is granted. 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 Tasmania typically takes a few weeks to two months. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
