Remote Work – Tasmanian Established Resident Pathway
The Established Resident Pathway now formally recognises remote work as a valid form of employment in Tasmania.
Remote work definition:
- You are residing in Tasmania but working remotely for a company or organisation based outside Tasmania (anywhere in Australia or overseas).
- The work involves providing services, expertise, or digital outputs (e.g. IT support, software development, consulting, design) to the external company.
- Example: A software engineer living in Hobart delivering backend development services to Google in California qualifies as remote work.
Important clarification:
-
If you are working for a company outside Tasmania but delivering services to Tasmanian clients (at Tasmanian worksites), you will not be considered a remote worker. Instead, you will be classified as an employee of a Tasmanian business.
Frequently Asked Questions
I meet all the minimum nomination requirements? Does that mean I will be nominated?
- No, meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee that you will be offered Tasmanian nomination.
- Meeting the minimum nomination requirements only allows you to register your interest in nomination in the Migration Tasmania Gateway.
- Applicants will also need to demonstrate that they have Priority Attributes relevant to a particular nomination pathway.
- The Migration Tasmania Gateway will rank you according to the information provided in the registration of interest and the Priority Attributes you hold.
- The most competitive applicants will be invited to lodge an application for nomination.
I have been invited to apply for nomination. Does this mean I will be nominated?
- If the information you provided is true and correct, and you can provide information and documents with your application to demonstrate this, you can be confident that your application will be approved.
How do I get a Skills Assessment?
Our service about Skills Assessments is available on the Skills Assessment Service.
Can I lodge multiple registrations of interest?
- No, the Gateway system will only allow you to submit one registration of interest at a time.
- You only need to register once and if you are invited to apply for nomination you will be considered against the requirements of all pathways.
- If you are not invited to apply for nomination and your registration expires, you may register again.
I don’t meet the nomination requirements. Can I still be nominated?
- No, you must be able to meet the minimum requirements for nomination.
What is the difference between “Employment related to skills assessment” and “employment in the same industry as skills assessment”?
- Some priority attributes refer to employment that is directly related to your skills assessment, whereas others may recognise post graduate employment in the same industry.
- For employment to be related to your skills assessment, the role must be in the same three-digit group as the skills assessment. A candidate with a skills assessment for Analyst Programmer (261311) could work in any of the occupations included the 2613 Software and Applications Programmers group, such as Cyber Security Engineer (261315) or Software Engineer (261313).
- Where the employment or business is required to be in the same industry as the skills assessment or study area (but not directly related), as a general guide this should be within a related Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC) Division or Class, as long as the ANZSIC description of that industry includes activities that are relevant to the candidate’s study or skills assessed occupation.
- For example, an Accountant could be working in any activity listed in Class 6932 Accounting Services, such as accounting , auditing, bookkeeping or tax agents services, or they could be working in an industry in Division K – Financial and Insurance Services, such as Banking, Financial Asset Investing or General Insurance.
My spouse / dependent family are not living in Tasmania. Can we be nominated?
- If you are currently living in Tasmania, your dependent family members may be living overseas but must not be living in another part of Australia.
- If your family are living with you in in Tasmania after relocating from another state or territory, they must have moved to Tasmania at least three months before you apply for nomination.
The requirements say I must be living in Tasmania / intend to continue living in Tasmania. Are short holidays okay?
- Yes, short visits or holidays that do not involve a long-term residential address are not considered “living in another state or territory”.
- However, numerous regular visits to the same location may cast doubt on your intention to settle in Tasmania, especially if the visits are to your previous place of residence.
- If your skilled visa has already been granted you should contact the Department of Affairs if you are unsure of your visa conditions.
