Hello Ots Team I Am Currently Working With Company In Leeds Who Have Sponsored Me In Aug 2014 For 3

Hello OTS team. I am currently working with a company in Leeds who have sponsored me in Aug 2014 for 3 years. So this year (2017) they are looking to extend my visa for another 3 years starting from August 2017 - August 2020. But in the Certificate of Sponsorship , they arent able to enter the Job code as the shortage occupation code for my role has been removed by UKBA a year ago. So can I still go ahead and apply for extension as the Job code was there in the first 3 year sponsorship. Please advise on this. Thanks.
