457 visa holders working in ICT occupation
Hello,
Briefly, I have a degree in Electronic Engineer and about 4 years industrial experience at home in Ireland, in software, process and audio visual engineering. The AV company im currently working with have submitted all the 457 forms themselves and i am waiting to here back from Immi - hopefully in 4 weeks
I have 3 Questions.
1) When they filled in the form they said my title was "Software Engineer".
Is Software Engineer in the ICT occupation list?
2) If So - Does this mean I should be on a min of $61K as part of the min
salary. Currently, i'm on $55K.
3) As i am technically qualified as an Electronic Engineer will there be any issues as my title is software engineer for sponsorship?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
