    Which state? If QLD, get on to BSMQ site. They have all the information you need for a 491. Onshore you just need to have lived and worked in a regional area for 3 months in a full time capacity. 

    May I ask, if you are on a student visa, are you not applying for the Graduate Visa? I don’t know your circumstances but you would qualify for the post study work visa 485 if you studied in Australia. It will give you 2 years full work rights which you can then use to buy you time to get your paperwork in order for a 491. 

    I am looking for QLD and NSW. I am on a student visa. I finished 2 years if study (diploma + advanced diploma project management) in Sydney on a cheap college. I am not sure if I am entitled for the graduate visa.

    It’s the experience you’re lacking unfortunately.
     

    QLD you need 3 years experience for 491 and 5 years for 190

    NSW you need 3 - 5 years for 190 and to have lived/worked in NSW for 1 year prior to getting the visa. 491 you need a job offer 

    WA: teachers not currently on the list 

    ACT: Need to be living and working in the ACT OR a job offer.

    Why not go down the 482 route, gain more experience whilst here in Australia and transfer over to the 491? You’ll meet the criteria of experience/living here etc 

    Family sponsor stream is so difficult, you’ll be waiting ages!!

    Is it mandatory to have work experience if you want to apply for 491? I tried to find that information but I cannot find anywhere stated you need work experience. As far as I know this is just the case for 190. Or am I wrong? If I am wrong, can you please send me a link where this is mentioned?

    I got my NESA accreditation in NSW and I am about to get my QCT in QLD as well. At the moment I am on a student visa with EOI 80 points for just 189. And curious if I am eligible for 491 without work experience.

    It is difficult with work experience on a student visa because you are just entitled to work maximum 20 a week but to get work experience accredited you need a minimum of 20 hours.

    Are there any other possibilities for me to get PR as a secondary teacher on the long run?
