NIFs for other games don't work in Skyrim (Just llike Morrowind Nifs don't work in Oblivion and neither of them work in the Fallouts)
There also are no exporters right now,so you can't save Skyrim Nifs directly from your 3D program.
What you need to do is loading your Oblivion model in http://niftools.sourceforge.net/wiki/NifSkope, export the mesh as .OBJ, and import it into a Skyrim NIF (select an existing NiTriShape first, if you just import as a new node UV mapping may get get lost.)
I'ts explained in more detail once a week in these forums.
