More detail on how the SOL works and guidance on filling in the consultation are in the SOL 2022 review – stakeholder letter + QA. More information can be found here Shortage Occupation List: call for evidence 2023

The main guidance document and queries should be made to the government official at this link Stefan.McCarthy5@homeoffice.gov.uk
