LeeWilliams Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Hi was just wondering how likely it was for an occupation, that was removed from the SOL last year and placed on the CSOL, to be re listed on the SOL? I'm running short on options to migrating to Australia; tried state sponsorship but the only state offering sponsorship turned me down on the grounds that I don't have any close ties to the state and that I don't have an offer of employment. So waiting for July to see if the SOL gets updated again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaggieMay24 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 There's no way to know until the new lists are published. If it's only offered in one state though, I'd think the likelihood is small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Collett Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 The Australian (one of the two Australian national newspapers) is reporting today that chefs, bricklayers and tilers are to be added to the SOL: [h=1]Coalition opens way for foreign chefs, brickies[/h] THOUSANDS of foreign chefs, bricklayers and tilers will no longer have to be sponsored by employers to obtain permanent visas, as the Abbott government eases skilled migration rules to address alleged labour shortages. Under changes backed by business groups, the three professions have been added to the Skilled Occupation List from July, meaning these workers will be able to apply for a permanent visa without requiring a sponsor. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/policy/coalition-opens-way-for-foreign-chefs-brickies/story-fn59noo3-1226946439974 Best regards.
