Western Australia Skilled Nomination — Eligibility Checker

A quick, private self-check against the common core requirements for Western Australia subclass 190 and 491 nomination, with a live occupation search. Stream-specific rules vary — always confirm on the official WA Government page. Nothing you enter is saved.

General guidance only. This covers the eligibility requirements common to all skilled-nomination applicants and does not capture every Western Australia stream rule, which change without notice and are set at the WA Government's discretion. Always check the official Western Australia skilled migration page and seek advice from a registered migration agent before relying on a result. Meeting the common core does not guarantee a nomination.

Do you meet the common core?

Every Western Australia 190/491 applicant must satisfy these Department of Home Affairs and state baseline requirements before stream rules are assessed.

The two visas

Subclass 491
