On 7 November 2024, the Department of Home Affairs conducted a bespoke SkillSelect invitation round for Subclass 189 (Skilled Independent visa) applicants targeting 27 occupation groups across healthcare, education, engineering, and construction sectors. The round prioritised medical specialties (including cardiologists, surgeons, psychiatrists, and emergency medicine specialists), nursing roles (aged care, child and family health), allied health professions (physiotherapists, occupational therapists, speech pathologists, audiologists), teachers (including special education and hearing/sight impaired specialists), engineers (structural, geotechnical, transport), and construction project managers. The occupation list reflects targeted skill shortages in Australia's healthcare and education systems. The document provides ANZSCO codes for each occupation but does not disclose invitation volumes, points thresholds, processing timelines, or applicant response rates from this specific round.
