How This Update Affects Offshore Candidates
Due to the removal of all these occupations, any candidate applying from outside Australia must now recheck their occupation’s eligibility before moving forward with the application, as this may directly affect the visa outcome. And if your occupation has been removed from the list, you need to explore alternative pathways or consider other state nomination option that suits your migration goal.
