I've found the updated shortage occupation list : https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/s ... pril14.pdf
I'm in web and we application development field.
The above PDF indicates that there is exception to RLMT if we apply for SOC 2136.

But is says this exception is ONLY for the jobs in visual effects and 2D/3D computer animation for the film, television or video games sectors.
But I can apply for software developer as my job in web development field. NOT in the film, television or video games sectors.
Will my sponsor get exception for RLMT in this case?
as per the PDF guide - Codes of Practice for Skilled Workers - Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) Codes
the following job titles also can be applied under the code SOC 2136 :

I can work as database developer too. So I can ask my sponsor to apply the SoC for database developer.
Will my sponsor get exception for RLMT in this case?
