We have just received information from Migration Institute of Australia that The Department of Home Affairs has released the following information on the news section of its website. This is relevant to anyone who is planning for a Temporary Skill Shortage (subclass 482) visa or the permanent Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186) visa.
On 3 December 2024, the Australian Government announced the release of the Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL).
The new CSOL fulfils the Government’s commitment to replace complex, out of date and inflexible occupation lists in our temporary skilled visa program. The CSOL is a single consolidated list, informed by labour market analysis and stakeholder consultations by Jobs and Skills Australia (JSA) that provides access to temporary skilled migration for 456 occupations.
The CSOL will apply to the Core Skills stream of the new Skills in Demand visa, which will replace the Temporary Skill Shortage (subclass 482) visa on 7 December 2024. The CSOL will also apply to the Direct Entry stream of the permanent Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186) visa.
More details on other reform taking place on 7 December 2024, including the Skills in Demand visa and National Innovation visa, will be announced shortly.
