Someone who applied under the first set of ministerial instructions (MI-I) whose application is not on the second second of ministerial instructions (MI-II) is still eligible for processing, and there application won't fail just because their occupation is no longer on the list.

However, they are likely to be processed on a lower priority than those under MI-II and those under MI-I whose occupation still on MI-II.
