Talking DIAC Reply to:VE176 SMP application-What priority If Occupation removed from SMP list

Hi
Good day,

Today I would like to share my information with you. I sent an inquiry to DIAC and got a pretty quick response from them regarding an issue which can be important to many of us.
I have lodged a 176 VE SMP application and I asked if my occupation is removed from SMP occupation list of the state that is sponsoring me, then will my application fall to lower priority or it will remain in SMP priority, and this is what they respond:

I am writing to you today in response to a Global Feedback Unit (GFU) enquiry you lodged on 11 July 2011 in regard to your application for General Skilled Migration (GSM). The Feedback Case number is IMMI-11-10267. Please quote this number in any further enquiries relating to this matter.

Your feedback relates to priority processing arrangements.

From 1 July 2011, processing priorities (with highest priority listed first) are:

*
1. applications from people who are employer sponsored under the RSMS program or who have applied for a Skilled – Regional (subclass 887) visa
2. applications from people who are applying under the ENS program
3. applications from people who are nominated by a state or territory government agency for an occupation specified on that agency's state migration plan
4. applications from people who have nominated an occupation on the Skilled Occupation List (SOL) – Schedule 1 in effect from 1 July 2011
See: Annual Update of Skilled Occupation List (111KB PDF file)
5. all other applications.

If you have obtained a nomination from a sponsoring state or territory that was approved under a state migration plan (SMP) then your application is in Priority Group 3. If your nominating state or territory
remove your nominated occupation from their SMP list and you have already had your nomination approved by the Department your application will remain in Priority Group 3. Nominations that have
been approved under a SMP will not be reprioritised if the nominating state or territory decide to remove the occupation from their list.

Further information about Skilled Migration visa options is available from our website at: http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/gener...sa-options.htm
