Could it be like this?
If you already started filling out the online application (before they closed it) you need finish and submit/lodge the application before the system maintenance. Because if you don't you will have to start over and fill in the new online application.

How is anyone supposed to guide when there is no information as yet? Wait until 1st July to find out.

hi Oliman,
This news is for those applicants who are eligible to apply before 1 July i.e. Onshore visa applicants and they announce it due to their system maintenance issue.
Thanks..

Changes to the General Skilled Migration (GSM) program from 1 July 2010 – 11 June 2010
Previously announced changes affecting the GSM program will come into effect on 1 July 2010.
See: Changes to the General Skilled Migration Program (362KB PDF file)
If you are intending to apply online for a GSM visa before 1 July 2010, we recommend that you lodge your online application well before 6 pm AEST (GMT + 10) on Wednesday 30 June 2010 as the implementation of these and other departmental system changes is likely to cause a systems outage.
See: Planned System Maintenance and Technical Issues
Applicants are advised to note planned system maintenance times before commencing an eVisa application, as planned maintenance will prevent a commenced application from being lodged. The department is not able to accept and back-date applications which have been commenced but not finally submitted through eVisa as a result of planned system maintenance or an outage.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Thought this might be useful piece of info.
I wrote to my c/o about future of CSL applicants not yet finalised post 30th june , and this is what he had to say
"Unless another direction from the minister is put in place outling anew priority, those applications in the pipeline will continue to be processed as they are now. This will mean that you will not be 'sent to the back of the queue'."

So do we know for sure that from tomorrow (1st July), the suspension on offshore GSM will be lifted. I have checked immigration website, and all it says is that Offshore visas number so an so and have been temporarily suspended. No news about when will they resume taking applications on these visas?

Only a few hours to July 1-st and no news about priority processing.
