Queensland (QLD)
GSM nomination program 2025/2026
The Queensland nomination program for subclasses 190 (Skilled Nominated) and 491
(Skilled Work Regional) is currently closed and details relating to the
2025/2026 program year have yet to be announced.
Places will continue to
be competitive with priority focussed on applicants who have skills and
employment experience which are in demand and will benefit the state.
The first stage of the
visa process is to apply for a skills assessment with the relevant
Australian authority and lodge an Expression of Interest (EOI). In this
interim period, you may wish to consider arranging a consultation with
the registered migration agent to discuss your visa prospects and
pathway. Lodging an EOI once a positive skills assessment has been
issued will place you in a position to be viewed in the Department of
Home Affairs SkillSelect data-base by the state once the program
commences.

Queensland is the second largest and third most-populous state in
Australia covering an area of 1,852,642 square kilometres. Queensland
has a population of 4,560,059, concentrated along the coast and
particularly in the state's South East region. Referred to as the
"Sunshine State", Queensland is home to 10 of Australia's 30 largest
cities and is the nation's third largest economy.
Queensland is less centralised than most other Australian states,
with 50% of the population living outside the state capital, and 25%
living outside the South East region. Queensland is home to many
regional cities, the most populous being the Gold Coast, the Sunshine
Coast, Townsville and Cairns.
Queensland is a popular choice for skilled migrants and with its
year-round beautiful weather and great career opportunities, it is an
ideal place to work and live, offering a high standard of living and
good working conditions.

Brisbane
Brisbane is the capital and most populous city in Queensland. Its
metropolitan area has a population of 2.3 million, and the South East
Queensland urban conurbation encompasses a population of more than 3
million. The Brisbane central business district lies in a curve of the
Brisbane river and covers an area of 2.2 square kilometres. The city has
a density of 379 people per square kilometre, which is high for an
Australian city and comparable to that of Sydney. However, like many
western cities, Brisbane sprawls into the greater metropolitan area.
