    Hi @angel4ever, i think SOL 2 applies for would be migrants (like us :D) na hindi independent or family sponsored. Like in our case, we are seeking to be sponsored/nominated by an Australian State.

    So keeping our fingers crossed, like SOL 1 di masyadong significant ang change

    salamat sa pag post ng bagong SOL. i have a question lang, my present occupation is a sys/net admin and nag-aantay lang ako until july para makumpleto ko ung 5yrs exp. since nasama na ung Computer System and Network Engineer sa SOL for this year can i nominate that as my profession pag nag apply? halos parehas lang naman ang duties and responsibilities nila.

    thanks,

    Question: So pag Family/Relative Sponsored Subclass 489, kailangan sa Schedule 1 ang skill? Tama ba ang intindi ko?

    Here is the statement from DIAC SOL and CSOL:

    If you apply for a General Skilled Migration visa on or after 1 July 2012 and you are not nominated by a state or territory government, you must nominate an occupation from Schedule 1 of the SOL.

    If you apply for a General Skilled Migration visa on or after 1 July 2012 and you are nominated by a State or Territory Government, a direct entry stream Employer Nomination Scheme visa, a Subclass 457 (Business (Long Stay)) visa or a Subclass 442 (Occupational Trainee) visa you must nominate an occupation from either Schedule 1- Skilled Occupation List or Schedule 2 - Consolidated Sponsored Occupation List.
