We have TSS visa consultants in Brisbane who can help discuss your particular requirements to identify what you’ll need to carry out your visa application effectively. The Temporary Skill Shortage Visa enables employers to sponsor a suitably skilled worker from overseas to fill a position they can’t find a suitably skilled Australian to fill. The Temporary Skill Shortage visa (subclass 482) is divided into three streams: short-term, medium-term, and the labour agreement stream. Each stream differs in the length of stay and is dependent on a varying range of requirements, yet all include bringing skilled migrants from abroad to work in Australia when skilled Australians are not suitable to fill the void in the job market.
The short-term stream of the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa allows employers to address labour shortages and bring skilled workers from abroad in cases where they cannot source any appropriately skilled Australians for the job. If you’re unsure about your qualifications being a suitable fit for Australian employers, you’ll need to talk to one of E-Help TSS visa migration agents.
To be eligible for the 482 visa short-term stream, you must:
With the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) on the short-term stream, you are able to travel to and from Australia as many times as you want while your visa is valid, and if eligible you can apply for permanent residency.
When you have been successfully accepted into the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) short-term stream, you will be able to work in Australia for up to two years for your sponsor. However, if an International Trade Obligation (ITO) applies to your application, you will be able to stay and work in Australia for up to four years.
The processing time for the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa on the short-term stream is generally 35-60 days.
The cost of the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) on the short-term stream is currently AUD $1,265.
The medium-term stream of the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa allows employers to address labour shortages and bring skilled workers from abroad in cases where they cannot source any appropriately skilled Australians for the job. If you’re unsure whether you’re qualified for the short- or medium-term stream, you can talk to a TSS visa consultant in Brisbane and Gold Coast to ascertain your suitability.
To be eligible for the 482 visa medium-term stream, you must:
With the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) on the medium-stream, you are able to study in Australia (without government assistance), travel to and from Australia as many times as you want while you hold a valid visa and, if eligible, apply for permanent residency.
When you have been successfully accepted into the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) medium-term stream, you will be able to work in Australia for up to four years.
The processing time for the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa on the medium-term stream is generally 32-56 days.
The cost of the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) on the medium-term stream is currently priced from AUD $2,645.
This stream of the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) is for skilled workers nominated by employers who have a labour agreement that allows you to live and work in Australia temporarily. A labour agreement is formed between the Australian Government and employers
To be eligible for the 482 visa labour agreement stream, you must:
With the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) on a Labour Agreement, you can study in Australia (without government assistance) and travel to and from Australia as many times as you want while you hold a valid visa.
When you have been successfully accepted into the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) Labour Agreement, you will be able to work in Australia for up to a maximum of four years, depending on the terms of the labour agreement.
The processing time for the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa on the Labour Agreement stream is generally 22-36 days. To ensure you’re ready to go with all the necessary documentation, our visa consultants can help you be prepared.
The cost of the Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) on the Labour Agreement stream is currently priced from AUD $2,645.
The Temporary Skill Shortage Visa also allows for family members of the TSS visa holder to join them in Australia, via the subsequent entrant appeal. To apply, you must be a partner or dependent of a subclass 482 visa holder and, once your TSS visa has been granted, you will be able to live, work, and study in Australia, as well as travel to and from Australia as many times as you want while the visa is valid – the same as the primary TSS visa holder. For more information on the subsequent entrant stream, talk to our 482 visa consultants in Brisbane.
