Guest ronkhu Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I think i am screwed as my earlier skill as assessed by ACS was under SOL2 and i dont see that skill listed in this list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siealman Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 If you are applying for State sponsorship then the relevant state sponsorship list is the one that matters alongwith SOL2. This one is SOL1 which is relevant for 175 and FS 176 applicants. I think SOL2 shall be published in a couple of days.... I think i am screwed as my earlier skill as assessed by ACS was under SOL2 and i dont see that skill listed in this list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ronkhu Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 The issue is that I had applied for assessment with ACS for the BA role but they said that my experience matches only with the CIO role hence CIO role is under SOL2 which means I have to apply for SS and getting an SS before 30th June is not a possibility by any means. So, now, I am at the mercy of SOL2 for 2012 and if my occupation is not listed there then my dream for OZ would be shattered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smithinoz Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Indeed. Let's hope SOL2 doesn't change too much either. Gutted for anyone affected by the changes.

Joanna82 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 WA has also stopped accepting applications post 8th June. Not true. They just suspended regional sponsorships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithinoz Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Not true. They just suspended regional sponsorships. I agree. I think they just state that people should take into account the 5 day processing time if applying before 30 June for state sponsorship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seraphim Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 If we're already on the existing list and have applied and been allocated a case officer, does it not matter if we're no longer on the list? (My occupation still seems to be on this new one, but thought I'd check!). I belted through the application process to get in before the deadline, lots of panicking!

(My occupation still seems to be on this new one, but thought I'd check!). I belted through the application process to get in before the deadline, lots of panicking! This is what it says about existing applications: "Visa applications that will be affected by the updated SOL The updated SOL will apply to all new independent (unsponsored) and family sponsored skilled migration applications lodged on or after 1 July 2012 unless they are from applicants eligible for transitional arrangements. Applications lodged before 1 July 2012 with a nominated occupation that is no longer on the SOL in effect from 1 July 2012 will continue to be processed. Priority processing arrangements may however change for certain applicants according to the Ministerial Direction on priority processing." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes But I told you this before http://www.pomsinoz.com/forum/migration-issues/151577-visa-489-regional-provisional.html#post1935840709 If your occupation is not on this list - and want to apply for 489 - you will require State Sponsorship, if your occupation is on the Consolodated SOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbe2005 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 my occupation happens to be on NSW SMP SOL so after I hope to get a positive TRA skills assessment, I'll go for NSW SS, and then the 190 visa. yes yes i know I have to be invited to apply FIRST.

Aussie bound Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 just about to send application to TRA- Im a wall and floor tiler......looks grim for melooks like theres no point wasting any money now New Zealand anyone? "The updated SOL will apply to all new independent (unsponsored) and family sponsored skilled migration applications lodged on or after 1 July 2012" This just affects these visa's in particular, you can still go for state sponsorship or try to get sponsored by an employer,check out various different states websites WA have their own SOL list it changes monthly so hopefully the brickies and tilers can hang on there untill the demand picks up again in the rest of Oz best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebourvellec Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 They are going to introduce a CSOL - Consolodated SOL, which will include occupations available for State SPonsorship also ENS and RSMS. Each state has their own State Migration Plan with occupations that if you meet the criteria they will sponsor/nominate you for- therefore if your occupation will need to be on the new CSOL when it is announced, and a SMP to beable to be invited for a visa.
