Trades Recognition Australia (TRA) remains the authorised assessing authority for 23 occupations requiring a skills assessment under the new Skills in Demand (SID) visa (Core Skills stream). Applicants needing a SID skills assessment for occupations under TRA’s responsibility should continue to apply through TRA’s Temporary Skills Shortage (TSS) skills assessment program.
TSS applications received by TRA from 7 December 2024 will be assessed for the Skills in Demand visa. Applicants who applied for a TSS skills assessment prior to this date and are waiting for an outcome should check with the Department of Home Affairs to confirm if the assessment is still required.
