Web Developer — Western Australia Nomination

Web Developer in Western Australia — nomination overview

Web Developer (ANZSCO 261212) is eligible for state nomination in Western Australia under the WA Skilled Migration program. Western Australia's expanding digital economy, including Perth-based e-commerce, resources sector digital portals, government services platforms, and technology startups, creates ongoing demand for skilled Web Developers. Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once Western Australia opens invitations for this occupation. Skills assessment is conducted by the Australian Computer Society (ACS), which assesses overseas qualifications and web development experience against Australian professional standards, including through the RPL pathway for experienced practitioners. 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. Government fees apply at nomination and visa stages. Processing in Western Australia typically takes one to three months. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
