Employer Sponsored Visa

An employee sponsorship visa enables Australian employers to nominate skilled overseas  workers for temporary or permanent roles when local talent is unavailable. 

Yes. Many employer-sponsored visas, such as the Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186),  offer a clear pathway to permanent employment and residency, provided both employee and  employer meet the visa requirements. 

Employer visa sponsors face legal and financial risks if the parties breached their immigration  obligations. They may pay fines for non-compliance or face uncertain outcomes, such as visa  rejections or employee departure. That is why employers must ensure visa conditions are  respected, as failure to do so can result in civil or criminal penalties 

The duration varies by subclass. For example, the Temporary Skill Shortage (482) visa may allow  work for up to four years. Meanwhile, other streams differ depending on the terms and visa  category. 

There’s no flat financial threshold, but sponsors must demonstrate the capacity to pay the  appropriate market salary and uphold employment standards. Financial viability is assessed case by-case.

Understanding the ins and outs of an employer-sponsored visa can be daunting, but you don’t  have to do it alone. For tailored guidance and expert support involving visas for employees,  partner visas 309, Australian visa 820, and other sponsored visas, contact Kirti Migration Services
