Application Fees
In June 2015 Immigration SA introduced application fees for skilled and businesses nominations.
Details of costs associated are listed on the Application Fees page.
The state nomination application fee is the amount of money in Australian dollars (AUD) that must be paid at the time of application submission.
You will be charged an application fee for each application you submit.
You will be asked to pay the fee at time of application submission with your credit card.
