I'm asking because TRA had told me the following so I thought if TRA allows me to do the JRP as a pastry chef under "chef",perhaps I could also get a 485 visa as a pastry chef,it being a specialization of chef which would give me time to do the JRP.But then again Immigration and TRA have different policies/guidelines.I'm guessing Immigration doesn't recognize pastry chef as a chef 351311.
TRA said:
"The title “Pastry Chef” is an industry term, not a recognised occupation for migration purposes. TRA is unable to provide a skills assessment with the nominated occupation of “Pastry Chef.”
"If you are employed as and performing the duties of a pastry chef, for the purpose of skills assessment for migration, TRA considers that to be a specialisation of the occupation Chef (351311). Please note that all three occupations have different qualifications requirements.
TRA will consider the following occupational/qualification alignment for the PSA:
Chef - Certificate IV in Asian Cookery, Certificate IV in Commercial Cookery or Certificate IV in Patisserie
Cook – Certificate III in Commercial Cookery
Pastrycook – Certificate III in Patisserie or Certificate III in Retail Baking (Cake and Pastry)."

One thing to note as well is that not because the applicant’s title is s a chef, does not mean the actual tasks meet the actual task description of a chef as per ANZSCO Code. From the cases we’ve handled, we’ve had a number of clients (with titles pastry chef and chef with more than 5 years experience) who have applied as a cook instead of chef as they lack some tasks in their role which would be fitting for a chef. Hence they apply for a lower level as they fit more the tasks in this level instead. Title is just a title, the actual tasks an applicant does has more bearing and highly regarded by both the assessing authority and immigration.
