BREAKING NEWS!
457 visas on their way out for Australia – significant restrictions in place as of today (even for applications already lodged) and the visa subclass will stop in March 2018. It will be replaced by a short term visa and a highly specialised visa.
The Skilled Occupation list has changed its title to the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) – but no changes to the occupations on the list (yet!).
The CSOL (subclass 186 occupations) has been replaced by the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL) and 216 occupations have been removed.
Stay posted, we’ll update you as we learn more…
