Employer Sponsored Visa
An employer sponsored visa can provide a pathway for skilled workers who have an Australian employer willing to sponsor them for an eligible position. However, the process involves requirements for both the employer and the visa applicant, including the nominated occupation, sponsorship, nomination, qualifications, work experience, and other visa criteria.
Visa Associates helps employers and prospective employees understand these requirements before proceeding. As a registered migration agent (MARN 2318153), we can assess your circumstances, explain the available pathway, and assist with the application from preparation through to lodgement.
