Organisational Psychologist — Queensland Nomination

Organisational Psychologist in Queensland — nomination overview

Organisational Psychologist (ANZSCO 272313) is listed on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) and is eligible for state nomination in Queensland under the Queensland Skilled Migration Program. Queensland employs organisational psychologists across resource sector employers, large government departments, management consulting firms, and corporate human resources programs across Queensland. Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once Queensland opens nominations for this occupation; QLD applies competitive criteria including points score, English proficiency, and local employment ties. Skills assessment is conducted by Australian Psychological Society (APS), which evaluates overseas qualifications, training, and work experience against Australian professional standards. English language proficiency, health, and character requirements must all be satisfied. Two nomination pathways are available: the Subclass 190 Skilled Nominated visa, granting permanent residence on grant, and the Subclass 491 Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa, a provisional visa requiring three years of regional residence and employment before the holder can apply for the Subclass 191 permanent visa. Nomination adds five points for Subclass 190 or fifteen points for Subclass 491. Government fees apply at the nomination and visa stages, with processing in Queensland typically taking a few weeks to two months. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
