The ACS wishes to advise you that, on 1 July 2010, immediately after the commencement of
Migration Amendment Regulations 2010, the ACS will assess a visa applicant’s nominated skilled
occupation according to the ANZSCO standard.

Following arrangements will be made to facilitate the ACS Pre-application Skills Assessment
(PASA) during ASCO-ANZSCO transformation.

Who are these arrangements for?

These arrangements are for applicants who:
have been affected by the temporary suspension of certain General Skilled Migration
(GSM) visa applications on 8 May 2010, and
• have the skills and qualifications assessed as SUITABLE under the ACS Pre-application
Skills Assessment Guidelines in place at the time of skills assessment application, and
• received a result letter issued within the time frame: 1 May 2010 – 30 June 2010
inclusively, and
• are able to provide a verifiable independent evidence of possessing skills and
qualifications closely related to an occupation listed on the Skilled Occupation List (SOL)
as at 1 July 2010 or the Employer Nomination Scheme Occupation List (ENSOL) as at 1
July 2010, and that occupation continues to be an acceptable occupation for skilled visa
program purposes, and
• wish to be reassessed under ANZSCO standard, and their ASCO occupation information
may not be considered under skilled visa program ASCO-ANZSCO transitional
arrangements endorsed by DIAC.
*The PDF documents below show the full list of DIAC-endorsed correlations from ASCO occupations to
ANZSCO occupations for each of the above lists.
