which means Priority 3 might progress a little faster .....

New codes means new assessment and new visa application, so i think that would not be the solution.

Are you sure about this? Any official link etc? To me it seems unfair that lets say a Chemical Engineer (with ASCO code) who applied in 2009 has to withdraw and apply again as a Chemical Engineer (with new ANZCO code) to get new priority... BUT you never know may be its like this... but official link will be appreciated otherwise the straight-mapping scenarios seems stupid if they have to reapply....

I suggest you to make further enquiries to that 'cause look what IeAust has to say:

Please note - For applicants who hold, or are about to hold, an assessment outcome letter with an ASCO code issued by this office prior to 1 July 2010, and who lodge an application to DIAC within 12 months of the date of this letter:

The ASCO based skills assessment will remain valid - please check the specific schedule(s) from the new SOL/ENSOL that applies to your individual situation.


I don't really think it depends on the assessment bodies as some may and others may not consider ASCO in DIAC. I think it's a general rule.

Also, from my point of view, if I would have been DIAC and I would have chosen to completely ignore any ASCO codes, well Schedule 3 would not have the third column (ASCO code).

Dear

In DIAC announcement If you fall in SMP and already have SS then you are automatically fall in priority group 2 .

Cheers

gillgee

My understandings are...

If you 've an occupation on NEW SOL (Schedule 3)then you fall in group 3 (ANZSCO doesn't matter in that case.)

As I 'm Electronics Engineer and this occupation is on new SOL (with some ANZSCO),So I fall in priority group 3.

gillgee

If its on New SOl,then u fall in group 3 priority.So simple dear...

gillgee

Dear DIAC always talks about Occupation NOT CODE.

If ur OCCUPATION is now on schedule3(say it Chemical Engineer),then u fall in cat 3. ASCO/ANZSCO matters where occupation name is changed.

shafaqat309

my point is if you have applied with a ASCO and after mapping if it is not on the new SOL but you want to get high priority then u have to lodge new application.

I was referring new Codes not mapped codes, hope you know the differences.

I too have the same understanding and stated it in my post but Shafaqat said its not the solution.... so thats why I was asking link for the for official link contradicting what both you and I think...
