📢 ACT Canberra Matrix Update for Australia PR

The ACT has announced important changes to the Canberra Matrix for skilled migration applicants.

✔️ Updated nomination criteria ✔️ Canberra Matrix changes ✔️ Key information for PR applicants

The ACT has announced an additional Canberra Matrix invitation round for June 2026, creating another opportunity for skilled migration applicants seeking ACT nomination. With nomination places becoming increasingly competitive and remaining allocations limited, eligible candidates should ensure their Matrix, EOI, skills assessment and supporting documents are up to date before invitations are issued. The extra round may provide a valuable pathway for applicants targeting Subclass 190 and 491 nominations.
