South Australia Talent and Innovators Program
South Australia Talent and Innovators program provides opportunities and pathways for highly skilled migrants who can contribute to South Australia’s critical priority sectors.
The Talent and Innovators program allows South Australia to nominate applicants under one of the following four streams.
- Employment stream: For highly skilled migrants who are working for South Australian businesses
- Startup and small business stream: For entrepreneurial skilled migrants who have started their own business in South Australia
- High performing graduate stream: For high performing graduates who have completed their qualification at a South Australian higher education institution
- Independent talent stream: For high caliber applicants seeking state nomination
All occupations eligible for migration through state nomination are available through the Talent and Innovators program. Successful applicants will need to demonstrate how they bring new ideas, skills, and innovation to South Australia and can create local jobs.
If South Australia is satisfied with your Expression of Interest application, you will be invited to submit an online application form for state nomination. All expressions of interest and applications through the Talent and Innovators program are considered on a case-by-case basis.
Please note:
- All applicants must meet the Department of Home Affairs requirements for the subclass 491 or subclass 190 visa.
- The Talent and Innovators program is currently unavailable to applicants applying from offshore.
- The Talent and Innovators program is currently unavailable to applicants applying from other Australian states and territories, but cases may be considered in exceptional circumstances.
- Businesses operating in outer regional South Australia and employing highly skilled workers may be exempt from the annual turnover requirement and an exemption to the salary threshold
