Only ASCO-ANZSCO correlations endorsed by the department are acceptable for skilled visa program purposes
Only those ASCO-ANZSCO correlations endorsed by the department as acceptable for skilled visa program purposes can be used in ASCO-ANZSCO transitional arrangements.
Occupation information (such as a valid skills assessment) can only be used under transitional arrangements if all the following circumstances apply.
a departmental-endorsed ASCO-ANZSCO correlation for that particular occupation exists
that occupation continues to be an acceptable occupation for skilled visa program purposes
the skills assessment is still valid (validity periods are determined by skills assessing authorities and may differ between occupations/authorities).
If any of the above circumstances do not apply, then the occupation information may not be considered under skilled visa program transitional arrangements.
If you are unsure whether your skills assessment is still valid, you will need to contact the relevant authority that issued the skills assessment.
If you are uncertain whether your skills assessment is acceptable for a visa application, or have further questions regarding the above, please contact the department to discuss your situation.
