New Skilled Occupation List (NEW SOL) - 17 May 2010
New Skilled Occupation List (NEW SOL) - 17 May 2010
Occupations (SOL)
On this page you will find the New List of Skilled Occupations
announced by Senator Chris Evens (Minister for Immigration &
Citizenship) on 17th May this year to officially come into effect
from 1st July 2010.
The new SOL does not apply to GSM applicants who, on 8 February 2010:
1. Held a Subclass 485 (skilled graduate) visa or had a pending subclass
485 visa application; and who
2. Apply for a permanent or provisional onshore GSM visa by 31
December 2012;
Applications for subclass 457 ( temporary 4 year working visas) & ENS
subclass 856 / 121 employer nominated permanent residence visas are not
affected by the change in the Skilled Occupation List in any way.
Subclass 457 occupations are set out on the subclass 457 gazette (see
Federal Register of Legislative Instruments - F2009L03970, 26 October
2009, IMMI 09/125). The Employer Nomination Scheme Occupations List
(ENSOL) sets out the occupatinos under which subclass 856 / 11 applications
can be made. See also fomrm 1121i at www.immig.gov.au which indicates if
an occupation on the old SOL is also on the ENSOL.
