The Northern Territory Government has confirmed that it has been granted its complete allocation for the 2026-27 General Skilled Migration program year by the Australian Government.
Nomination applications through the NT Government will open on 21 August 2026, available to all onshore applicants as well as selected offshore streams. Applicants are advised to check the eligibility requirements relevant to their stream before submitting an application, as these have been revised for the upcoming program year. Guidance on completing and submitting an application is also available on the NT Government website.
The NT Government has clarified that it cannot promise nomination outcomes will be finalised before an applicant’s visa expires. Individuals currently in Australia whose visas are nearing expiry are urged to consult a Registered Migration Agent or Legal Practitioner regarding their options, to ensure their ongoing lawful status in the country is maintained.
