DRAFT Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL)
Confident ON List
The Migration Strategy notes the Government will replace the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa with a new
Skills in Demand (SID) visa, which will include a Specialist Skills Pathway, a Core Skills Pathway and an
Essential Skills Pathway.
The CSOL is one of the criteria for the SID visa and will target the Core Skills Pathway to Australia’s

TSS482 visa.
