Australian Capital Territory (Canberra) State Migration Visa

If you are interested in migrating to Australia and living in Canberra under the Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) visa program, you must formally express an interest in applying for ACT 190 nomination by completing a score-based ‘Canberra Matrix’ where you are allocated points against demonstrated economic contribution or benefit and/or a genuine commitment to be part of the ACT community.

Candidates with scores of 20 points and above will go on to be ranked. The highest ranked candidates under the scoring system will then be selected, on a monthly basis, and invited to apply for ACT 190 nomination.
