Medical Radiation Therapist in Tasmania — nomination overview
Medical Radiation Therapist (ANZSCO 251212) appears on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) 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 cancer services and radiation oncology units face staffing challenges, and the state actively recruits qualified medical radiation therapists prepared to work in Hobart or regional centres. Professional registration is administered by the Medical Radiation Practice Board of Australia (MRPBA) through AHPRA. Overseas qualifications are assessed and English language requirements must be satisfied before AHPRA grants general registration to practise in Australia. 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.
