Core Skills Occupations List (CSOL)

The Government will replace the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa with the new Skills in Demand (SID) visa, effective 7 December 2024. This new visa will feature three pathways: Specialist Skills, Core Skills, and Essential Skills.

A key component of the SID visa is the Core Skills Occupations List (CSOL) , which will streamline temporary skilled migration. The CSOL includes 456 occupations and will serve as the foundation for the Core Skills pathway of the SID visa.

The CSOL, based on occupations from the 2022 ANZSCO catalogue , will also apply to the Direct Entry stream of the permanent Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186) visa .
