The sunshine state has announced it is temporarily suspending some occupations from their state Skilled Occupations List.
Queensland’s official migration website has announced Business and Skilled Migration Queensland (BSMQ) will remove four occupations from all the Queensland Skilled Occupation Lists (QSOLs) on 01 February 2019 as BSMQ has received many expressions of interest for these occupations and has filled the quota.
NSMQ will not be issuing any more invitations for EOIs for the following occupations:
- ICT Business Analyst – 261111
- Quantity Surveyor – 233213
- Construction Project Manager – 133111
- Marketing Specialist – 225113
The website says, if you have not received an invitation by this date, BSMQ is no longer able to issue any new invitations.
"BSMQ may open these occupations later if the current invitees do not respond in the required time frame," it added.
The immigration authority has also removed two more professions from offshore QSOL list.
