Questions people ask about the 2027 occupation list

Does this explorer confirm that my occupation is eligible for an Australian visa?

No. The explorer is a reference dataset, not a current visa eligibility decision. Occupation requirements differ by visa, stream, assessing authority and state or territory, and can change.

Which occupations qualify for Australian migration in 2027?

NWI's searchable explorer currently covers 514 occupation records. Search by occupation title or ANZSCO code and filter by list or visa pathway. List placement alone does not guarantee visa eligibility.

Is my occupation eligible for a 189, 190, 491 or 482 visa?

Check the current Department of Home Affairs criteria for the relevant visa and stream, plus current state or territory nomination criteria where applicable. A dataset label or occupation record on this site does not by itself establish eligibility or guarantee an invitation.

Has Australia’s skilled occupation list changed for 2026–27?

Occupation lists and visa settings can change. This explorer was last reviewed in September 2026; always confirm current list, assessing-authority and visa requirements before applying.
