About the 482 Visa in Australia: Temporary Skill Shortage Visa

Let us help you understand what documents and requirements are needed for your 482 Visa in Australia:

The 482 Temporary Skill Shortage Visa is the ideal solution if you have a job offer in Australia but you are overseas, or you are here with a temporary visa that has work limitations, such as a Student Visa or a Working Holiday Visa.

The 482 Temporary Skill Shortage Visa is temporary and it allows you to accept a job offer from an Australian employer and work for them. You get full-time work rights but you can only work for the sponsoring employer, in the approved nominated occupation, unless another employer takes over your sponsorship.

The visa is granted for up to 4 years but it can be extended for more time after that. We are happy to discuss your eligibility: we determine if your employer can become a sponsor and if you meet all the requirements for the visa. Our experienced Migration Agents can also prepare and lodge all applications for you.

When dealing with an honest, competent and experienced Registered Migration Agent from Bravo Migration you maximize your chances of a positive outcome in a faster manner, as we will prepare a decision-ready application and minimise delays.

Let us guide you through exactly which documents are needed for your case. Why waste hours completing forms?

The Main Requirements

There are 3 stages involved in obtaining a Subclass 482 visa:

Sponsorship

• The employer must obtain approval as a standard business sponsor
• The main requirements are:
  • that the business must be trading and operating, and
  • the “Training Australians” Requirement.

Once approved employers of 482 visa holders have to meet Sponsorship Obligations.

They exist to ensure that overseas workers are not exploited, that the 482 visa program is being used to meet genuine skills shortages, and that it is not being used to undercut local salaries and conditions in the labour market.

Nomination

• The position being nominated must feature in a certain list issued by the Department of Immigration. Only occupations that require a certain skill level can be sponsored for the 482 visa.
• The position being nominated must attract a salary package that meets the Minimum Salary as established by the Department of Immigration.
• It is also necessary to demonstrate that the salary being offered meets average market rates for the role being offered
• In some cases, it is necessary for the employer to demonstrate that he could not find an Australian citizen or permanent resident to fill the position.

Visa

• You must have qualifications OR work experience is a relevant field.
• You also need to demonstrate you meet the minimum English levels required, as well as health and character.

Bravo Migration can prepare and lodge:

• Applications for approval of businesses to sponsor overseas workers;
• Applications for approval of nominations for all kinds of job offers;
• Applications for approval of 482 visas for workers and their families.
