New changes for the 2019-2020 Migration Program     ACT has announced new changes on its website regarding the 2019-2020 migration program. ACT has issued new guidelines on the latest changes to the migration program for 2019-20 that will take effect from November 30 to June 30, 2020. Below are the links to the new documents:   About the ACT Occupation List   The list of ACT professions identifies the skills currently being sought in Canberra (for skilled migrants). purposes). The list of ACT occupations is used to determine eligibility for ACT support in the following categories:  
  • ACT nomination of a qualified qualified visa (subclass 190). You can express an interest in ACT 190 application by completing the Canberra matrix even if the proposed occupation is closed. however, only open occupations will score points in the proposed occupational category.
  • Support by a regional certification body for an employer application under the sponsored regional program.
  The list of ACT professions is not linked to specific job offers and does not guarantee a job in a proposed  occupation. You must be convinced that job opportunities are sufficient in your profession appointed before applying for an ACT application. You will be competing for vacancies with all people on the job market as part of a normal selection process. Your success will depend on employer  requirements, your relevant skills, your experience and your level of English.   New residents do not generally meet the criteria of employers who require citizenship or security clearance.   ACT Occupation List updates   While a major analysis of the demand for professions will generally be undertaken twice a year (in February and August), the demand for each occupation will be reviewed on an ongoing basis. Once it's determined that the request for occupation has been met, the occupation will be closed without other opinion.
