NIV targets global top talent, including researchers, innovators, entrepreneurs, athletes, and creatives. Applicants must be 18-55 (exceptions apply), meet English requirements (e.g., IELTS 4.5), and secure a nomination from a reputable Australian individual or organization. The process involves submitting an Expression of Interest (EOI), followed by a formal application within 60 days of invitation. Priority is given to fields like critical technology, renewable energy, and medicine, as well as applicants with international awards, high income, or significant achievements.
