Use SkillSelect to make an Expression of Interest for visa nomination.
What is SkillSelect?
SkillSelect is the Department of Home Affairs' free online system for administering its skilled and business migration program.
If you wish to be selected for visa nomination by Victoria, your first step is to make an Expression of Interest (EOI) via SkillSelect.
How does SkillSelect work?
Skilled professionals and business people seeking Victorian visa nomination must make an Expression of Interest (EOI) via SkillSelect. If you are applying for skilled visa nomination (subclasses 190 and 491), you must then submit a Registration of Interest for Victorian State Nomination with Live in Melbourne after making an EOI.
What's the difference between an Expression of Interest and a Registration of Interest?
An Expression of Interest is made on SkillSelect, a system managed by the Commonwealth Government’s Department of Home Affairs. A Registration of Interest is submitted on Live in Melbourne to the Victorian Government and allows us to select the best candidates to apply for Victorian skilled visa nomination.
