the mooz Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I've just been looking at the Victoria's SMP and was very surprised to see just two nursing codes from the possible twelve. Considering a lot of nurses could legitimately apply under two (or three) areas i.e. general and a specialism, if you were issued with an old ASCO code and pick the wrong ANZSCO code for conversion for your visa application you may be left out.

Guest RobotMouse Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Hi, My OH is in the process of being assessed as a Register Nurse (Perioperative) - 254423 by the ANMC. This ANZSCO code isn't on the Vic SMP list, so does that mean we are wasting our time in terms of state sponsorship or would being recognised by the ANMC in this specialty allow here to apply via the Registered Nurses NEC - 254499 code which is on the list?

the mooz Posted November 2, 2010 Author Share Posted November 2, 2010 Hi RobotMouse I'm not sure if you can change the code once your applications being processed. Maybe someone more wise than me can answer that one. My wife was assessed by ANMC under the ASCO code 2323-11 which translates to any of the dozen ANZSCO Registered Nurse codes. So some people have a choice for which code they include in their visa application. You could surmise there might be more likelyhood of Medical RN's being wanted by a state than your own speciality and therefore go with that. Looking at the Victoria SMP this is pot luck.
