Need a clarification
Hi,
Please kindly answer the following concerns.
1. I was considering to apply for subclass 489 as software engineer rather than subclass 189, because I have only scored 6 for each in IELTS and I'm not planning to do IELTS again. Is it a good approach ?
2. What are the disadvantages of going for subclass 489 ?
3. In case, my occupation is removed after I applied to the sub class 489, will it be a problem to get the PR through (after completing the requirements) that sub class ?
4. In case if they close the subclass 489 after I got the visa and went to Australia, then will it be a problem for me to get PR through it ?
5. Is there any difference in points offered for subclass 489 and 189 ?
Please help me regarding these questions. Thank you in advance.

If you meet the requirements of the 489, you can apply for the 887 PR visa which does not require an occupation on the CSOL at that time, as you met that requirement to get the 489.
489 - Skilled Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 489)
887 - Skilled Regional visa (subclass 887)

Re: Need a clarification
Thanks for the reply. My concern is that if they Remove software engineer from skill list before (in 2015 list) I can pass the ielts then I'm done. So that's why I have decided to act fast with my current marks.
At the moment I heard that status is not good for software enginees. can I give any suggestions ?

Re: Need a clarification
That is a pretty specific question and unless there is somebody that has done exactly the same as you (and I don't think any of the regular posters have unfortunately) you are not likely to find an answer on a forum.

Description in both are pretty much same. Only things that are different are few occupations mentioned in the list like pharmacology and toxicology etc under NEC. My dept was pathology and I worked first in cancer and now protein work. Not sure what to do.

You may need to consult a registered agent.

I would be quite tempted to try the third option, in your shoes.
