Australia Skilled Occupation List

The Australian Government updates its skilled migration occupation list every year, based on the market demand for filling vacancies. In this year’s list, there is a higher demand for skilled workers than usual due to its high ranking of Australia in the QS World Rankings.

What is the Skilled Occupation List?

Recently, the Australian government revised its list of eligible occupations for skilled migration. The new list is for skilled migration to Australia.

The Australian government categorizes the skills it needs among three broad groups:

  1. Short-Term Skilled Occupation List
  2. Medium & Long Term Strategic Skill List
  3. Regional Occupation List

Below is a more detailed explanation of the lists.

STSOL: Short-Term Skilled Occupation Lis

The Short-term Skilled Occupation List—previously known as the Consolidated Sponsored Occupation List (CSOL)—is a list of about 215 occupations. These occupations are in demand in various territories of Australia, including Western Australia, New South Wales, and the Australian Capital Territory.

You may be eligible for one of the following visas under the STSOL program:

  • Skilled Nominated Visa Subclass 190
  • Skilled Regional Provisional Visa Subclass 489
  • Direct Entry via Employer Nomination Scheme (Subclass 186) Visa
  • Visa Subclass 457 for Temporary Workers
  • Training Subclass 407 Visas

There are 24 occupations listed in STSOL that you can apply for.

  • Regional Australia
  • State Nomination Streams

For the points system, the authorities use STSOL when evaluating immigration applications.

Demand for Engineers, IT professionals, and healthcare workers is likely to remain strong throughout the SOL.

Medium & Long Term Strategic Skill List

  • The strategic skills list is for skilled migrants to Australia. Visa Subclass 189 allows you to migrate to Australia if you possess special skills, without the need for a firm offer of employment or sponsorship from an employer.
  • The program facilitates the immigration of skilled professionals into various sectors.
  • Previous versions of the list were known as the Skilled Occupation List (SOL).

ROL: Regional Occupation List

This skills list is used for Australia visa subclass 407, TSS, 489, and so on. This is the master list of regional migration programs. Immigration experts can help you learn more about these lists.

These programs have their own set of criteria and rules.

  • For general skilled migration, you may choose the combined list of occupations.
  • You can choose a career that matches your interests and skills.

Selecting an appropriate occupation is important in applying to immigrate as a skilled independent.
