Registered Nurse (Paediatrics) in South Australia — nomination overview
Registered Nurse (Paediatrics) (ANZSCO 254425) is listed on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) and Combined Skilled Occupation List (CSOL), qualifying it for state nomination in South Australia under the South Australia Skilled and Business Migration program. Paediatric Registered Nurses in South Australia deliver developmentally appropriate acute care, neonatal nursing, and family-centred services at the Women's and Children's Hospital in Adelaide and paediatric wards at regional hospitals serving rural families. Skilled migrants with a valid SkillSelect Expression of Interest may be invited to apply once South Australia opens invitations for this occupation. Skills assessment is conducted by the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council (ANMAC), which assesses overseas nursing qualifications and paediatric clinical experience, including neonatal, general paediatric, and child and adolescent care, against Australian registration standards. English language proficiency and health and character requirements apply. The Subclass 190 Skilled Nominated visa grants permanent residence on grant. The Subclass 491 Skilled Work Regional visa is provisional, requiring three years of regional residence and employment before a Subclass 191 application. Nomination adds five points for Subclass 190 or fifteen for Subclass 491. Government fees apply at nomination and visa stages. Processing in South Australia typically takes six to ten weeks. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
