Hi Mark, Myself Punit. I am not sure what occupation should I choose from SOL. I have done my Bachelors of Engineering in Electronics & Instrumentation, Master of Technology from Electrical Department in Instrumentation Specialisation. Then, I have 3 years and 4 months industrial work experience in Manufacturing company (TATA STEE) in Automation department, where my work was related to Instrumentation and Automation.

Hi Mark, We have recived an invitation to apply for a 189 visa on 7 June 2017. We have 60 days to apply. However we are still awaiting our PCC from South Africa which can take up to 60 days. We wanted to wait until we have all our docs to submit everything in one upload. So my question is, should our occupation be taken off of the skills list in the July 2017/2018 before we have submitted the application, would that cancel out our invitation from June? If so then we would rather submit end of June and then… Read more »

I have taken admission in Deakin university for Master of Professional Engineering (Mechanical Engineering Design) for July 2017 intake. Mechanical Engineer has been flagged in the 2016-17 list for possible removal from SOL in future or probably in 2017-18 SOL. So what will be the employment scene when I will complete my masters in July 2019? Should I go ahead for masters? Is it worth taking risk?
Please guide.

Hey Mark.
If I graduated at Industrial Engineering and then this occupation is removed, can I do a masters in Civil Engineering and apply with a occupation of Civil Engineer?

Hi Mark,
I am a senior Biomedical engineer(19yrs exp) who authorised an agent in Dubai with MARA number to help me file the application.Now i have completed IELTS,CDR and all other formalities and is about to apply through them.Now i came to know that the Biomedical engineering job is flagged.Does this mean that i won’t land up in a Biomedical job?This is a real big decision for me as i am a family man and my wife works as opthalmologist.

Hi Mark,
I see that the below occupations feature in the flagged list:
Accountant (General) – ANZSCO 221111
Management Accountant – ANZSCO 221112
Taxation Accountant – ANZSCO 221113
However, External Auditor – ANZSCO 221213 does not feature in this list.
If Accountant (General) gets removed from the 207-18 SOL, Will External Auditor still stay on the list (as it is not flagged) OR Will it be removed as well as these two occupations are closely related?
When is the new SOL – MLTSSOL for 2017-18 published?

Thanks and Regards,
Danny

Hi Mark.
I have applied for 189 visa last december (i.e 11 dec 2015) as Mechanical Engineer. I have claimed 60 points and I have provided them with all my documents including medical and PCC. I was just wondering if my name doesn’t come in year 2016-2017 and if they remove mechanical engineering from 2017-2018. Does that mean I ll get rejection automatically? Or is there still a chance?

Thanks
