Foreign workers with a job function specified on the Skilled Occupation List (SOL) and enrolled in the Australia Skilled Immigration Program can easily qualify for Australian permanent residency.

The Qualified Immigration Program seeks to hire foreign-qualified candidates in industries with skills shortages. These workers can get Australian permanent residency if their employment roles are specified in the SOL and they fulfill the other qualifying requirements.

The Australian government often changes the Skilled Occupation List and the employment roles mentioned that are likely to qualify for Australia PR.
