While many lower-skilled roles will be removed from sponsorship eligibility, the Immigration Salary List will remain in place for now. Importantly, only care workers and senior care workers applying from within the UK will still qualify for sponsorship.

The new Temporary Shortage List (TSL) will feature a wide range of occupations identified by the Department for Business and Trade and HM Treasury as important to the UK economy, including:
<ul>
 	<li>Laboratory technicians</li>
 	<li>Engineering and IT technicians</li>
 	<li>Business analysts, sales executives, HR officers</li>
 	<li>Electricians, welders, plumbers and construction trades</li>
 	<li>Logistics managers and vehicle technicians</li>
 	<li>Creative roles such as fashion designers, photographers and set designers</li>
</ul>
Workers sponsored in TSL-listed roles will not be able to bring dependants unless the child is born in the UK or the worker has <em>sole responsibility </em>for them. The TSL is scheduled to remain in place until 31 December 2026, pending further review by the Migration Advisory Committee.
