Occupation nomination and skills assessment requirements - Graduate Work stream

Graduate Work stream applications lodged from 1 July 2023 need a qualification relevant to an occupation on the skilled occupation list. They also need a skills assessment in the nominated occupation.
We have removed these requirements for applications lodged between 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2023.
