In Australia, we value cultural diversity in the workplace and like to give everyone a ‘fair go’, wherever you are from. Aside from the professional opportunities, it’s one of the reasons many choose to pursue their career in Australia.
Depending on whether you are able to find an employer to sponsor you or whether you are eligible to apply for a work visa independently, there may be several visa options available to you.
With over 30 years of experience in the industry, it would be our pleasure to assist you with living and working in Australia. Get in touch with our Registered Migration Agents through our Pre-Visa Assessment to find out which visa options you may be eligible for. Otherwise, please feel free to contact us on 08 9221 3388 or at [email protected]. Our migration agents service those seeking to migrate to Perth, Melbourne and Sydney.
Employer Sponsored Work Visas
- Is an Australian employer willing to sponsor you?
- Do you work in a regional area?
- Are you already working on a 457, 482 or 461 visa?
- Have you completed a skills assessment and do you have good English skills?
If any of the above apply to you, find out more about Employer Sponsored Visas.
Permanent Skilled Migration Visa Options
You can either apply for Permanent Skilled Migration individually or be nominated by a relevant state or territory government agency. Either way, you’ll need to undergo a points test and following this, be invited by the Australian government to apply for skilled migration.
Meeting the points-tested requirements will depend on:
- Your qualifications
- Your work experience
- The institution at which you completed your studies
- Your English speaking ability
- Your age
If applying for Permanent Skilled Migration through nomination, you’ll need to comply with the obligations and nomination processes for the relevant state or territory government agency. (All of the agencies have different requirements.) Our Registered Migration Agents can advise on which area of Australia may be needing your skills most.
We can also advise on how you may be able to gain more points and increase your chances for eligibility if you do not currently meet the points-tested requirements.
Temporary Skilled Migration Visa Options
Australia’s Regional Skilled Migration Visa options allow you and your family to live and work in specified regional areas for up to four years.
As with Permanent Skilled Migration Visa options, your eligibility will depend on whether you meet several points-tested requirements. (Which are based on the above factors.)
Under the Regional Skilled Migration Visa, you’ll need to be nominated by a state or government authority or relative
and understand the obligations and nomination processes for your relevant state or territory government agency.
We can advise on these requirements as well as advise on which area of Australia may be needing your skills most. We also help you transition from a temporary visa to permanent residency once your Regional Skilled Migration Visa has been granted.
Graduate Work Visas
If you’ve recently graduated from an Australian tertiary educational institution, this visa allows you to work in Australia temporarily after completing your studies. However, not all graduates are eligible for a graduate work visa so it is worth speaking to a migration agent for personalised advice.
According to a number of Government regulations, your eligibility depends on:
- Your qualifications
- The institution at which you completed your studies
- Your English speaking ability
- Your age
