Hi there
We are just thinking about applying to immigrate to Australia via the skilled independent visa.
My question is about the SOL - my OH will be the main applicant and has a few years experience in his field as an Environmental Coordinator HOWEVER, his occupation isn't listed on the SOL. (Well, it's listed in the employer sponsored section so I guess we could always try to get a job offer first but I believe that can be very hard while still in the UK).
Anyway, my question is - because his degree and qualifications are also relevant to a few other occupations listed on the SOL can he nominate these instead. He is qualified to do these other jobs but just doesn't have exact experience in these occupations for example Soil Scientist or Environmental Research Scientist. He would be able to do any of these jobs because his qualfications are totally relevant to them AND his current job is similar and contains a little bit of research and soil work but it's just not EXACTLY what he does. I hope that's clear?
What do you think? Apply via another occupation and hope they see the relevance of his current experience OR try to find a job in his exact field.
Tough one!
