Do you dream of a better future—working in a thriving country, enjoying a high quality of life, and providing incredible opportunities for your family? Australia’s Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL) and the new Skills in Demand Visa might be exactly what you’re looking for. These programs are designed to connect skilled workers from around the world with jobs in Australia. If that sounds exciting but also a bit overwhelming, don’t worry—Legacy Migration is here to guide you step by step.
Australia is looking for people with skills to help fill job shortages in important industries. Whether you work in healthcare, construction, IT, or as a tradesperson like a mechanic or chef, there’s a place for you. The Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL) identifies 456 jobs that are in high demand across the country. This means there are great opportunities for people with the right skills and experience to build a new life in Australia.
Australia isn’t just offering jobs—it’s offering a chance to live in some of the world’s safest and most welcoming cities. Imagine having a career that values your skills and being part of a community that appreciates your contributions.
Launched on 7 December 2024, the Skills in Demand Visa replaces older visa programs to make the process easier and faster. This visa allows temporary and permanent residency for people working in jobs listed on the CSOL. Some of the industries included are:
• Healthcare and Aged Care: Nurses, doctors, and other healthcare workers.
• Construction: Engineers, electricians, and carpenters.
• Technology: IT specialists and software developers.
• Trades: Mechanics, chefs, and other skilled workers.
