Technical Cable Jointer in Western Australia — nomination overview

Technical Cable Jointer (ANZSCO 342212) is listed on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) and is eligible for state nomination in Western Australia under the Western Australia State Nomination program. Western Australia has strong demand for technical cable jointers in underground power networks and large civil projects across Perth and regional WA. Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once Western Australia opens nominations; Western Australia prioritises applicants with a job offer or strong connections to the state, alongside competitive points and English proficiency. Skills assessment is conducted by Trades Recognition Australia (TRA), covering overseas qualifications and work experience against Australian standards. English language proficiency, health, and character requirements must also be satisfied. MLTSSL listing opens three pathways: the Subclass 189 Skilled Independent visa (independent), the Subclass 190 Skilled Nominated visa (permanent on grant), and the Subclass 491 Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) visa requiring three years of regional residence before applying for the Subclass 191 permanent visa. State nomination adds five points for Subclass 190 or fifteen points for Subclass 491 to the applicant's SkillSelect score. Government fees apply at nomination and visa stages; processing in Western Australia typically takes one to three months. For advice tailored to your circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
