New South Wales requirements
Nomination pathway
NSW work, residence and offshore branches have different requirements. Check the current occupation scope and program before choosing a route.
Work and residence
Check the branch that matches where you live, work or study.
Check Quality Assurance Manager against the current occupation and program requirements before relying on this route.
An EOI and the state selection process are separate. Check current residence rules and whether the relevant 190 or 491 pathway is accepting registrations.
Work and residence
Check the branch that matches where you live, work or study.
Check Quality Assurance Manager against the current occupation and program requirements before relying on this route.
General and Graduate streams have different criteria. Confirm the current program year and occupation list; a past criteria document does not establish current availability.
Work and residence
Check the branch that matches where you live, work or study.
Check Quality Assurance Manager against the current occupation and program requirements before relying on this route.
Use the current Queensland program notice and the correct onshore or offshore pathway. A prior-year occupation table does not establish availability for a new program.
Work and residence
Check the branch that matches where you live, work or study.
Check Quality Assurance Manager against the current occupation and program requirements before relying on this route.
Choose the actual Tasmanian pathway before checking its occupation and priority rules. A broader priority list is not interchangeable with the overseas health and education job-offer pathway.
Work and residence
Check the branch that matches where you live, work or study.
Check Quality Assurance Manager against the current occupation and program requirements before relying on this route.
Four ways to explore your migration options. Each starts with a different requirement.
A map to explore, not an eligibility result
On your own skills
189 · Independent
Points-tested visas use ANZSCO 2013. Check the assessment occupation and code for that visa; this page describes the 2022 employer-visa classification.
State-nominated visas use ANZSCO 2013. Check the relevant assessment code and the state pathway; this 2022 code does not establish a nomination result.
Have internationally recognised achievements in your field? NIV considers your personal record of exceptional and outstanding achievement, rather than whether your occupation appears on a skilled list.
Your occupation alone cannot establish whether this pathway fits your circumstances.
Explore National Innovation visa requirements
NIV recognises exceptional achievement in a profession, sport, the arts, or academia and research. A job title, salary, qualification or priority sector does not establish eligibility.
Expression of Interest
Describe your achievements through the separate NIV EOI process. An EOI is not a visa application and does not guarantee an invitation.
Government-agency nomination, if applicable
Priority two concerns nomination on Form 1000 by an expert Australian, state or territory government agency. Its EOI evidence requirements differ from ordinary visa-stage nomination. Agency nomination does not guarantee an invitation.
Invitation
Home Affairs decides whom to invite. An invitation allows an application; it is not a pre-assessment of visa eligibility. The visa must be lodged within 60 days of invitation.
Visa assessment
Home Affairs assesses your achievements, continuing prominence, benefit to Australia, ability to establish yourself, an eligible nominator with a national reputation in your field and other requirements. NIV is open to any age; applicants under 18 or aged 55 and over must demonstrate exceptional benefit to the Australian community. English, health, character and other criteria still need checking.
General pathway information, checked 31 October 2026. This pilot does not assess eligibility or predict an invitation.
What evidence matters for NIV?
Start with what you personally achieved, why it is exceptional in your field, and how independent sources recognise it internationally. Evidence is considered in context; this is not a checklist where one tick is enough.
Independent recognition. Relevant international awards, selective recognition, substantial independent coverage or recognised expert assessments.
Contribution and impact. Your own role in influential research, adopted innovation, commercial outcomes, sporting or artistic achievement. Explain significance and attribution.
Current prominence. Recent recognition and continuing work that support your standing in the field.
Australian contribution. How you could benefit Australia and establish yourself in your field; separate ambition from documented opportunities.
Nomination context. An industry reference is not automatically an eligible visa nomination or government-agency nomination.
A patent, publication, PhD, senior position or high income alone does not establish exceptional achievement. Sector priorities guide selection; they are not an occupation eligibility list.
Explore what to prepare and which stage you are at. This is general information, not an eligibility decision or invitation forecast. No names, documents or contact details are needed. Answers stay in this open modal and clear when it closes.

There’s more than one employer or regional route.
Regional employer and agreement routes have their own occupation and nomination checks.
This guide explains pathway types. It does not confirm Quality Assurance Manager’s current eligibility for every stream.
Where could you build your next chapter?
State nomination uses the 2013 classification. Start with the assessment occupation for that visa; no state availability is inferred from this 2022 employer profile.
