MODL: Migration Occupations in Demand List

As a result of the Australian visa changes introduced on 8 February, 2010, the Migration Occupations in Demand List (MODL) has now been revoked and will no longer play a part in the Australian visa application process.

Therefore, anyone who has not already lodged their skilled Australian visa application will not receive additional points on the basis of their nominated occupation being on the MODL.

This page has been kept for posterity for the timebeing, but please note that nominatin any of the occupations below will now have no impact on your Australian skilled visa Points Test.
