Hello. Hope someone here can help me with my problem. I am currently living in regional Queensland for about 4 months now under visa 489. But recently, I checked the Skill Occupation List of Victoria and found out that they have updated the list and my occupation is now qualified to apply for visa 190. However, there is a requirement there:

"You will be required to provide a current job offer in your nominated occupation to support your visa nomination application if:

you are currently living in another Australian state, "

So that means I need to get a job offer? Can I go back to my birth country so I can file the application without the job offer? I have only been here in Queensland for 4 months.

Hope someone can answer my question. Thank you.
