Tier 2 points

[Stompel84]

Good Day,

I have an A listed sponsor which offered me a job at 36K.

My job falls in the SOL list - 2135 System Engineer.

Is the following correct and what is my chances for June/July 2018?

2135 - System Engineer - 130 points (SOL list)
Salary 36k - 16 points

130+16 = 146 points

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Do you work in the listed industry for 2135 to be a shortage occupation?

systems engineer in visual effects and 2D/3D computer animation for the film, television or video games sectors

Hi,

The job offer is for a System Engineer in television/broadcast company we do television commercial adaptation and I will be employed as an System Engineer not mainly only looking at 2d/3d systems.

Is there a more descriptive explanation of what that means?

Thanks

What I have quoted is specifically from the shortage occupation list in the immigration rules and that is all it says (Appendix K - SOL). To qualify for SOL, it must be what the Appendix K says.

What does your JD say?
