State Migration Plan (SMP) Occupations List

The SMP Occupation List identifies occupations that are currently in demand in Canberra. The occupations listed do not relate to a specific job vacancy, nor represent a guarantee of a job in a specific occupation.

This list must be read in conjunction with the SMP Guidelines. The guidelines outline the criteria that must be met before an application for ACT Government nomination is lodged.

The applicant should understand that the ACT Government is NOT responsible for finding them employment or for providing any form of financial assistance.

Applicants must compete for positions with all people in the labour market as part of the normal selection process. Success will depend on employer requirements, relevant skills and experience and level of English ability.

SMP Occupation List Updates

The SDL lists will be updated on a regular basis to show the current status of the skill demand against each occupation.
