Overview
About this service
Subclass 491 is a provisional five-year visa for skilled workers who are nominated by a state or territory or sponsored by an eligible family member in regional Australia. It adds points to your score, which can help where 189 is out of reach. After meeting residence and income rules you may apply for Subclass 191 permanent residence - thresholds and definitions change, so planning must follow current instruments. We help with nominations, EOIs where applicable and full visa bundles.
