I'm a CA in External and applied under Accountant General. The anzsco job roles for it are pretty broad and pretty much includes the tasks for both internal and external, but yeh i would talk to a migration agent. https://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs%40.nsf/Product+Lookup/BAAE53E3A0A4E1C1CA257B95001310D7?opendocument

Theres always reasons not to do something (and they have been extensively covered), so here are my arguments to do it - Break out of the cycle, exactly the reason i did it in 2013. Think of it like, even if you go home after 3 years you can go back with great experiences and start fresh in the UK - FTA will be ratified soon, you will be able to apply and most probably get 3 years without having to do farm work - Pretty much every industry is crying out for staff, if you arent fussy, finding work will not be difficult. I know recently 2 British Working Holiday Makers sponsored by pubs as bar/restaurant managers, and if youre willing to work regionally even better. They are desperate, like probably never before. I just cant see this shortage being resolved in the next few years. - For the first time in a decade pro immigration policies are firmly on the table (enter sept job summit/oct budget), and it is much more likely than not that immigration numbers will increase and requirements will become looser (this can already be seen in the nomination requirements for program year 23, see Tas recent update) - If you want to stay, theres always a way. It might be stressful and cost money, but there will be a way if you want it bad enough. - Why not, what do you have to lose?

ANZ eligibility is over 9 months left on a visa i believe.

Hey Paul, Yep i did see the processing priorities. For example the relevent items on the list being 2. Occupations within a Critical Sector 9. Subclass 190 (Skilled - Nominated) What i took from the Global processing times information is, you cant compare processing times between 190 non critical and 190 critical. As 190 critical is 2nd whereras 190 non critical is 9th. Is this the correct understanding? Also i still have the issue in that i cant find anywhere what 'critical sector' is defined as other than the PMSOL listing. So is that the same? Meaning being on the PMSOL will also quicken up your 190 processing. I understand in the end knowing any of this doesnt mean anything and the application will be assessed when it is, im just intrigued as to whether being on the PMSOL actually will quicken up 190 processing. Thanks!

Hey Westley, My question with regards to this, is that on the processing times for 190 it says "Applicants should be aware that points tested skilled migration visa applications that are not an occupation within a Critical Sector may exceed the average processing time. This is because each visa subclass contains applications that have a different processing priority. Occupations within a critical sector are given highest processing priority." And for the life of me when i try and find critical sector information, it leads me back to the PMSOL, which says "The Priority Migration Skilled Occupation List (PMSOL) identifies 44 occupations which fill critical skills needs to support Australia’s economic recovery from COVID-19." So although i understand the PMSOL is for employee sponsored visas, doesnt it also mean the critical skills on it mean you have priority processing on 190? Or is there another critical sector list i am missing? Thanks
