TeeTMI Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) The new occupation lists MLTSSL and STSOL have been announced. These will be effective as of the 1st July It appears that unlike previous years separate MLTSSL and STSOL instruments are being created for different visas. (IMMI 17/080: Specification of Occupations and Assessing Authorities—Subclass 186 Visa) Instrument 2017)https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2017L00851 For the 457 https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2017L00848/Download For the GSM visas Migration (IMMI 17/072: Specification of Occupations and Assessing Authorities) Instrument 2017https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2017L00850/Download 12 occupations were removed entirely from the list of eligible skilled occupations. Equipment Hire Manager^ 149915 Fleet Manager^ 149411 Picture Framer^ 394212 Property Manager^ 612112 Psychotherapist^ 272314 Real Estate Agent Principal^ 612113 Real Estate Agent^ 612114 Real Estate Agent Representative^ 612115 Ship’s Engineer 231212 Ship’s Master 231213 Ship’s Officer 231214 University Tutor^ 242112 Caveats on 457 and 186 Employer Nominated Visas As of 1 July 2017 changes, caveats apply to 67 occupations for the purposes of the following visa programmes only: Temporary Work (Skilled) visa (subclass 457) Employer Nominated Scheme visa (subclass 186) – Direct Entry Stream. The DIBP advise that these caveats are designed to ensure that the above visa programmes are used to fill skilled positions that cannot be filled via the local labour market. If you are working in a highly skilled position, you are unlikely to be impacted by these arrangements. The caveats apply to: - subclass 186 visa and nomination applications lodged on or after 1 July 2017 and - subclass 457 visa and nomination applications which: - are lodged on or after 1 July 2017 - were lodged before 1 July 2017 and have not yet been decided by the DIBP.

PurpleFerri Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 @TeeTMI Please can you confirm that occupations with caveats are only available for Employer Nominated Visas? I am specifically looking at Corporate General Manager, is seems its not available for 190 and 489 any longer? Is this correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeTMI Posted July 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 I do not think that all occupations with caveats are not available for the GSM (189/190/489) visas. But Corporate General Manager does not currently appear on the GSM list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayleigh Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 @Purpleferri. We feel your pain. My husband is also a corporate general manager and we have had the wind knocked right out of our sails now :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SD_MOA Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 Hi @PurpleFerri and @Kayleigh, In your situations you need to consider what other occupations that are still on the lists may be suitable (Corporate Services Manager is one possibility).
