Nutritionist — Tasmania Nomination

Nutritionist in Tasmania — nomination overview

Nutritionist (ANZSCO 251112) 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 health and food industries, including its premium agriculture and aquaculture sectors, support demand for nutritionists in both clinical and community settings. Skills assessment is conducted by VETASSESS, which assesses overseas nutrition qualifications and professional experience against Australian occupational standards. Evidence of formal study in nutrition science and relevant work history is required for a positive assessment. 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.
