Social Worker is a high-demand occupation and appears on Australia’s skilled migration occupation lists, including the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List, making it eligible for permanent residency pathways such as the Skilled Independent (189) and Skilled Nominated (190) visas.
The Bachelor of Social Work and Master of Social Work are recognised qualifications for these pathways. Always check your occupation against the current Department of Home Affairs occupation lists before applying, as lists are reviewed periodically.
