Queensland - State Migration Plan

After a false start (with a withdrawn press release) on 26 November, the Queensland State Migration Plan has been announced:

The Queensland Government website has further details:

Skilled Sponsored (Subclass 176) information (including occupation list)
Skilled Sponsored (Subclass 886) information (for onshore students and incl occupation list)
Skilled Regional Sponsored: 475 and 487 information (for regional sponsorship and occupation list).

 Please note that you need to check each occupation on the lists for any:
  • English language requirements
  • qualifications and registration requirements
  • industry experience requirements
The Queensland government used to have an "off list" nomination program, but that has currently disappeared from its website.

This blog post is largely based on the MIA email news bulletin which is provided as a service to its members.
