Australian employer sponsored visas provide a practical pathway for skilled foreign workers to live and work in Australia when a local skills gap exists. If you have an eligible occupation and a genuine job offer, your employer may nominate you so you can apply for a temporary or permanent visa that matches the role and business needs. The most common pathways are the Temporary Skills in Demand visa and the Employer Nomination Scheme. Regional options may also apply where a position is located outside metropolitan areas.
A temporary visa that allows approved sponsors to hire overseas workers to fill genuine skill shortages. The visa is tied to the sponsoring employer and occupation, with streams that reflect shortage lists and skills settings. It can be a stepping stone to permanent residence if eligibility is met later.
A permanent residence pathway where an Australian employer nominates a worker for a skilled position. There are different streams, including Direct Entry for applicants who meet skills and English thresholds, and Temporary Residence Transition for eligible 482 holders who have worked for the sponsor for a required period.
A provisional regional option that supports roles in designated regional areas. It can lead to permanent residence through a later visa if residence, work and income requirements are met.
We confirm that the occupation aligns with the correct ANZSCO code, that the role is genuine and at the required skill level, and that both the business and the applicant meet the relevant criteria.
If the business is not yet an approved sponsor, we prepare the sponsorship application and explain ongoing obligations. For the nomination, we gather evidence of the position, market salary, employment contract and business operations. Where labour market testing is required, we guide the advertisements and proofs.
We assist with skills and licensing evidence, English test results where needed, health and character requirements, and a clear document checklist. For ENS Direct Entry, we confirm skills assessment needs. For transition streams, we map dates and work history carefully.
The path to obtaining a student or training visa is underscored by uncertainty. Inbound migration services provide consistent support and clear communication throughout, offering reassurance and transparency. We serve as a liaison with Australian immigration authorities, keeping applicants informed at every stage and promptly addressing any concerns that may arise.
We brief employers on sponsorship obligations such as record keeping, equivalent terms and conditions, and not recovering certain costs from the worker. We explain visa conditions for applicants, including what to do if the role changes or employment ends.
If you are an employer with a genuine vacancy or a skilled professional with a confirmed offer, we will map the correct pathway, prepare a clean and consistent submission, and keep you updated from start to finish.
