Migration NT Program Overview
The Northern Territory Skilled Migration Program allocates 1,650 nomination places for 2025-26. This marks growth from 1,600 last year. Distribution splits into 850 subclass 190 nominations for permanent residency and 800 subclass 491 nominations for provisional regional stays.
Nominations now welcome both onshore and offshore applicants. Unlike shrinking allocations elsewhere, Migration NT expands opportunities. Priority targets skills shortages in engineering, health, and trades.
Key Visa Options
Subclass 190 grants permanent rights to live and work anywhere in Australia after nomination. Subclass 491 allows five years in regional areas like NT, leading to permanent residency after three years. Both demand federal points of at least 65, skills assessments, and competent English (IELTS 6.0 equivalent).
Priority Occupations in Migration NT
NT focuses on high-demand roles. Engineers lead lists, followed by trades, health professionals, and community workers. Hospitality, transport, education, ICT, business, and agriculture also qualify.
The list updated 28 October 2025. Check official NT sites for matches to national skilled occupation lists. VEM helps verify if professions like ICT specialists fit.
Federal Requirements for Nomination
Applicants stay under 45 at nomination time. Positive skills assessment proves qualifications match Australian standards. Regulated fields need specific evaluations.
Secure 65 points minimum. English proficiency hits competent level across bands. These steps align with Department of Home Affairs rules.
NT Nomination Categories
Three paths exist: NT Graduate, NT Resident, and Offshore Applicant. Each ties to 190 or 491 based on residency and commitments.
NT Graduate Pathway Details
Graduates complete two years of full-time tertiary study at NT institutions. Post-qualification, reside six continuous months on unrestricted work visas like subclass 485.
Prove genuine job efforts via applications, employer contacts, or associations. Those short on residency eye subclass 491 case-by-case.
NT Resident Requirements
Residents on work-right visas qualify after set periods.
Subclass 190 for Residents
Live two consecutive years in NT pre-application. Ensure dependents stay in NT. Hold two years full-time eligible employment, ongoing 12 months.
Jobs match nominated occupation or closely related ones. Employers operate 12 months in NT at market salary. Avoid hot-desking setups.
Subclass 491 for Residents
Pre-1 July 2020 arrivals need six months residency and employment. Post-2020 requires 12 months living, six months work. Jobs continue 12 months.
Exceptions allow non-eligible roles with recruitment proof and business needs. 457/482 holders supply employer support letters.
Offshore Applicant Streams
Offshore cases favor subclass 491, with rare 190 exceptions. Show one-year post-qualification experience, financial capacity, and NT commitment.
Priority Occupation Stream
Match NT Offshore Migration Occupations List (NTOMOL) with full skills assessment.
NT Family Stream
Eligible NT relatives (citizens, permanents, or select visa holders) reside 12 months. They provide settlement support declarations. Submit job market research and applications.
Relatives include parents, siblings, cousins—step or adoptive.
NT Job Offer Stream
Secure verifiable offers from 12-month NT businesses in skilled list occupations.
Recent tweaks cut experience to one year for many, add occupations, and broaden family sponsorship to 491/494 holders.
