  I was really surprised by this one. When I started my application 2 years ago, nurses, was never part of this list. I really wonder why. I will do some research about this.
  
  "An occupation ceiling will be applied to invitations to apply to migrate under the points based skilled visas of the general skilled migration programme. There will be a limit on how many invitations are issued for general skilled migration for a particular occupation to ensure that the migration programme is not dominated by a small number of occupations.
  
  "Occupational ceilings do not apply to Employer Sponsored or Business Innovation and Investment visa subclasses. For State and Territory Government nominated visas, a State or Territory Government will not be able to nominate you if your nominated occupation has reached its occupation ceiling. For clients with an Expression of Interest in occupational groups which have reached their ceiling, please note that Expressions of Interests remain valid for two years from the date of submission."

  @gomez09 - i would assume that you already have your visa or at the very least already waiting for your visa...
  
  take this as good news, it means mas kaunti yung competition mo in your field.
  
  all the best!

  @ TasBurrFoot
  
  Yes. I arrived here last September 2013, state sponsored PR GSM visa.
  
  I was just surprised because if a skill is included in the occupation ceiling list, they will be limiting the number of visas given to these skills/profession. And in the field of nursing, it is not only nurses from the Philippines who are trying to apply and migrate here in AU, nurses form China, India, Malaysia, etc.. even form UK are competing in the market.
