Shortage Occupation List

Post by Rags1238 » Sat Aug 08, 2020 12:20 am

Hi,

My wife is working as a Senior Marine pipelines engineer in the oil and gas industry. Can anyone please tell me if this falls under SOL?

Am asking this question since our immigration consultant first made us go through the RLMT process and now submitting the application form as SOL.

I tried looking up on the GOV website, but the phrase "All occupations" seems ambiguous.

Any advice would be helpful
TIA,
Raghavendra.

You want member who are unpaid volunteers to search through appendix j and appendix k for you with just a job title???

Useful to post what the SOC is if you want help!!!

Apologies, that was not my intention. I wasn't completely sure and hence dint post the SOC. But it should be either 2121 or 2129.

What do you find ambiguous about it saying "all occupations"? It is clear it means all occupations as stated and the details are available in appendix J with the salary thresholds.
