Priority Migration Skilled Occupation List

7/9/2020

 
The Priority Migration Skilled Occupation List (PMSOL) identifies 17 occupations which fill critical
skills needs that support Australia’s economic recovery from COVID-19 based on expert advice from
the National Skills Commission and consultation with Commonwealth departments.

Employer sponsored nomination and visa applications with an occupation on the PMSOL will be
given priority processing.  All other skilled occupation lists will remain active, but the PMSOL
occupations will take priority.  

The list is temporary and priority occupations may change as Australia recovers from the pandemic. 
The Government and the
 National Skills Commission will continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19
on the Australian labour market and assess Australia’s skills needs as they evolve and new sources of
data emerge.
