Visas For Your Family

482 Temporary Skill Shortage Visa

The Subclass 482 visa plays a pivotal role in Australia’s skilled migration framework. Designed to fill immediate skill shortages, the TSS visa allows Australian employers to sponsor qualified overseas workers for positions they cannot fill with local labor. This visa offers flexibility for employers, allowing for short-term hires, while also providing a pathway to permanent residency for visa holders in specific streams.

485 Temporary Graduate Visa

The Temporary Graduate Visa (Subclass 485) is a valuable option for international graduates who wish to continue living in Australia after completing their studies. As a former Subclass 500 visa holder, applying for a 485 visa allows you to live, work, and study in Australia temporarily. This visa is often seen as a bridge to permanent residency, giving you time to gain relevant work experience and boost your eligibility for other skilled migration visas.

186 Employer Nomination Scheme Visa

The Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) Subclass 186 visa is a permanent visa that allows skilled workers, nominated by their employer, to live and work in Australia permanently.
