According to SBS, the occupation list of skilled immigrants in Australia is about to be finalized in 2018-19. The (Department of Jobs and Small Business) review of the Employment and small Business Department is under way, but it will be the Secretary of the Interior, (Home Affairs), who will make the final decision.
Some occupations are expected to be removed. "for example, manufacturers, film or video editors, stage monitors, video producers, cable workers, library technicians, and home caregivers may be removed from the list." Melbourne immigration agency Pritt (Chaman Preet) said.
Although the Employment and small Business Department identified some of the jobs that could be removed in May, Mr. Pritt believes unmarked occupations may also be affected.
"during the review process, some unmarked occupations may also be affected, depending on the availability of [talent]," he said. If there are a lot of people looking for a certain field, they may be suspended. For example, hairdressers have been removed from the mid-term (skilled immigrant occupation) list, but many states have responded again. "
At present, many states have published the latest professional lists of skilled immigrants. However, the occupation of skilled immigrants in the new state (with the exception of the 489 visas in the northern interior), as well as those in the "closed" status of the capital territories and those of overseas applicants, remain closed.
The table below shows the adjustment of states and territories to popular immigrant occupations. "occupations" on the list are those that appear on the new lists in the states, i.e., which can now be used as state / remote guaranteed occupations if the applicant meets the nomination criteria.
