- The source row has an exact six-digit code match; its other source fields keep their stated scope.
- Applicants must have a valid skills assessment for an occupation listed in the “TSE Priority Occupations - eligible skills assessments” column to be eligible for the Tasmanian Skilled Employment Pathway under subclass 190.
- Applicants must also be working in a closely related role - one that falls in to the same ANZSCO 3-digit group. Examples of roles in the same group are listed in the second column.
- For example, if someone has a skills assessment for Management Consultant but are employed as an Economist they may be eligible for subclass 190 nomination in the Tasmanian Skilled Employment Pathway.
- The table is for the subclass 190 TSE Priority Occupation option and does not describe every Tasmanian nomination pathway or subclass 491.
- The exact skills-assessment occupation is the first column. The second column gives examples of related employment roles in the same three-digit ANZSCO group, and the page explicitly says the examples are not exhaustive.
- A row or occupation match does not establish that a role is accepted in a person’s circumstances, that an invitation or nomination is available, or that any person meets all program criteria.
- The page does not state the ANZSCO edition; exact-code mapping to other directories must remain edition-unverified.
- The source page contains row-specific caveats and a future-effective note beginning 1 December 2026; those notes must not be generalized to other rows or displayed as already effective before that date.
