Organisational Psychologist in Victoria — 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 Victoria under the Victoria's Skilled Migration Program. Victoria employs organisational psychologists across large corporate employers, management consulting firms, and public sector organisational development programs across Melbourne and regional Victoria. Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once Victoria opens nominations for this occupation; VIC 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 Victoria typically taking a few weeks to two months. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
