1. Immigration SA – SC 188 & 132 business nomination 2018/19 quotas filled

Immigration SA has advised the MIA that it has filled its federal quota of Subclass 188 and 132 business nomination approvals for the 2018/19 financial year.

Subclass 188 and 132 business nomination applications that have already been submitted but not processed, will be processed from July 1 2019, when the Federal quota for South Australia resets.

The online application system will remain open, and continue to accept business nomination applications.

Note: Subclass 892/893/888 and 132 review applications will continue to be processed, as they do not count towards the Federal quota given to South Australia.

We would encourage any prospect applicants to get in touch with one of our migration consultants at the earliest convenience.
