For Australian employers and skilled workers

Sponsoring a worker, or hoping to be sponsored?

Employer sponsorship in Australia has two sides. The business nominates, the worker applies, and the Department of Home Affairs makes the decision. Get the free guide. It explains how the process works from both sides, written by a Registered Migration Agent, in plain English.

What is in the guide

  • Which visa may fit the role, and how the main employer sponsored options differ.
  • What sponsorship costs, including the government charges on top of our fee.
  • What each side has to show, the business before it can sponsor, and the worker before they can apply.
  • How the stages run, what happens when, and what can run in parallel.
  • The mistakes that can lead to a refusal, on either side, and how people avoid them.

✓
We act for employers as well as workers, so we see both sides of every sponsorship.
✓
Every fee is quoted in writing before you engage us.
✓
We do not take money for applications that cannot succeed.
✓
We do not find you a job, we do not have a list of sponsors, and we will never sell you a sponsorship.
✓
If we think a pathway is not realistic, we say so rather than lodge something that cannot succeed.
✓
Where we act for both the business and the worker, we put the conflict of interest to each side in writing first.

What happens next

01

The guide arrives

Straight to the email address you give us, usually inside a minute. Check your spam folder if it is not there.

You read it first

No cost and no obligation. Plenty of people read it, work out sponsorship is not right for them right now, and that is a fine outcome.

03

We call if you want us to

A member of our team may call to answer questions about how the process works, whether you are hiring or hoping to be sponsored. If you would rather just read, tell us and that is the end of it.
