Re: ACS during ASCO-ANZSCO transformation
I have completed 12 years of study (secondary school education) since then i have been working on different posts in IT field.
I dont have any IT related degree. I have certification like MCSE (2005)and RHCE (2009) with a experiance of 7+ years.(i am working since 2003 on regular basis and from 2000 to 2003 part time.
could you please guide me that should i go for RPL or My techinical certification can full fill the eligibility for ICT related degree.
i have read the PASA guideline page 23 it states that
"Following certification courses, either individually or in combination, may be sufficient to meet the qualifications criteria:
Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer, Microsoft Certified Solution Developer, Certified Lotus Professional or Certified Novell Engineer (from 1997)"
i will be very thankful to you if can please guide me...........
Thanks

Re: Computing Professional nec with a MODL specialisation
Hi guyz,
Its July 1st today and DIAC has answered the question in their GSM-ANZSCO-FAQ
Does it mean that we can go ahead and nominate ourselves against one of the relevant occupation in SOL rather than going for review/re-apply? Experts please advice.

Re: SAP functional applying for 261111 or 261112
Hi Guys
Did you try sending message to ACS or DIAC regarding the same. I have sent a message enquiring them.
I have applied for ACS assesment under ASCO 2231-79( SAP Specialist). I have sent them a query to find the equivalent code for the same in the new ANZSCO.
As the Java Specialist and Siebel Specialist have been mapped to the ANZSCO code 261313 Software Engineer and 261311 Analyst Programmer respectively, I hope there should be a equivalent mapping for the SAP specialist as well. The reply will clarify all....

I'm still waiting on their reply, counting on the reply...

Re: Computing Professional nec with a MODL specialisation
Hi djmjx
The link http://www.business.nsw.gov.au/migra...NI_Skilled.pdf suggests that Java and Siebel specialist are being mapped to the new ANZSCO code 261313 and 261311. From my understanding ACS should be able to clarify with specific ANZSCO code that's in the NEW SOL for the other specialisations as well.
I think ACS has still more to release.

Re: SAP functional applying for 261111 or 261112
The problem is that if v look up for task characteristics of 261399, it's nowhere related to Sap skills...even if there's a call for SS against 261399, don't think sap functional skills will be applicable...
However, 261112 matches sap functional profile quite closely and am unsure wat new documentation (apart from wat I had already submitted for 2231-79 assessment) should I send them?
Eugenep-- negative for applying against 175..it will be outrightly rejected..

Re: ACS during ASCO-ANZSCO transformation
General comments on the new skills list and classifications:
a) There is no significant change for people who have already lodged permanent visa applications, people on existing 457 visas, people hoping to apply for employer sponsored permanent visas.
b) Equally, no significant changes for people who are state sponsored already, provided the visa application has been lodged. If not lodged, check that the sponsorship is still valid, and do so quickly.
c) IT people - ACS has advised that if your skills assessment was issued between 1 May and 30 June you can be reassessed under ANZSCO for free, but be careful that you have an occupation on the SOL ("Schedule 3) or State SOL ("Schedule 4") before you request that reassessment, and be prepared to justify the occupation you choose. Every existing ACS assessment needs to be reissued if it hasn't been linked to a visa application already, those issued before 1 May require an entirely new skills assessment application and fee. Also important for IT people to be aware that there are now a number of totally excluded IT occupations and at this stage the IT occupations being sponsored by states are unknown, so therefore only current SOL occupations are safe. This is going to be particularly hard on many specialists awarded MODL/CSL status under the previous SOL.
d) There is no "direct mapping" of ACS occupations from the old SOL to the new SOL or new State SOL.
Cheers,
George Lombard

As always, excellent information, if only DIAC could explain things as simply as you
What is the situation if someone who already has an ACS assement lodged with a 175 application (back in Nov 08) and they now go and get re-assesed under a new code (pay the fee etc) if they get that new assement and it is on the SOL or State SOL how do they go about updating there existing application? or do they basically have to start a new application from scratch and write off the old one and anything paid towards it?
Cheers

Re: Computing Professional nec with a MODL specialisation
Hi Guys,
DIAC has now released the new SOL with schedules. The Schedule 4 list has ASCO 2231-79 mapping. But there is one issue. For Schedule 4 DIAC is saying that:
the State and Territory SOL (schedule 4 ) – relevant only for GSM applicants who are nominated by a State or Territory government agency under a State Migration Plan.
And no state has released their SMP yet. also what about the existing state sponsorship which the applicants used for 176. I am getting confused here.
Thanks.
