What this list unlocks

Skilled Independent (189), Skilled Nominated (190), Skilled Work Regional (491) and Temporary Graduate (485). Being listed is the entry condition, not the whole test: you still need a skills assessment from the authority named against your occupation, the English level the visa requires, and either the points or the sponsorship the route runs on.
