How Does CSOL Affect ENS (SC186) – Temporary Residence Transition (TRT) Stream?
With the introduction of the Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL) replacing the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL) and Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), some may have concerns if this change will affect the Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) (Subclass 186) - Temporary Residence Transition (TRT) Stream, a permanent resident (PR) visa.
Does CSOL affect the ENS (SC 186) Temporary Residence Transition (TRT) Stream?
It is important to note that applicants who are preparing to apply for the TRT stream under the ENS (Subclass 186) visa will not be affected by the new occupation list (CSOL) or the newly introduced caveats. In other words, the existing Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) (Subclass 482) Visa still has a pathway to applying for ENS (TRT) (SC 186) with the previous occupation list.
Who can apply for the ENS (TRT) (SC186) Visa?
The ENS (SC186) Temporary Residence Transition (TRT) Stream is accessible to applicants who:
Hold, or have held, a TSS visa or a 457 visa for at least 2 years;
Have worked for their sponsoring employer during this period;
Meet the visa eligibility and requirements.
