Your Pathway to Permanent Residence

Employer sponsorship offers one of the most reliable pathways to permanent residence in Australia for healthcare workers.

01
Subclass 482 — Skills in Demand Visa

Your employer sponsors you on a temporary basis while you work and build your Australian employment history. Valid for up to four years depending on your occupation and stream.

02
Skills Assessment

Many healthcare occupations require a skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority before a visa can be lodged. We advise on which body applies to your occupation and what is required.

03
Subclass 186 — Permanent Residence

After meeting the required period of employment on a 482 visa, you can apply for the 186 ENS visa for permanent residence. Direct Entry is also available for some occupations.
