Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once South Australia opens invitations for this occupation. SA Health nuclear medicine departments and private PET and SPECT imaging providers require skilled technologists to support cancer diagnosis and treatment planning. Professional registration is governed by the Medical Radiation Practice Board of Australia (MRPBA) through AHPRA. Overseas qualifications are assessed and English language standards must be met before general AHPRA registration is granted. ANZSNM accreditation is relevant to the professional pathway in nuclear medicine. 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.
