The following is the current (as at 30 July 2007) skilled occupations that have been identified as being in demand in Australia.
For migration purposes, this list is called the Occupations in Demand List (MODL).

If your nominated occupation is on this list at the time your application is assessed, you will receive extra points towards gaining entry into Australia.

  • For occupation in demand, but with no job offer - 15 points
  • For occupation in demand with job offer - 20 points

The MODL is reviewed twice a year to take into consideration existing and emerging skill shortages. Changes only occur if there has been a significant change in labour market trends.
