TEMPORARY VISAS

· Business Long Stay Visas

These types of visas are available for skilled applicants who are either sponsored by a company to work in Australia or have been sent to Australia to work in a branch office by their overseas company or are eligible to set up their own business or invest in an existing business in Australia.

Employer Sponsored Visa
To be eligible for an employer sponsored visa the applicant is required to have a skilled occupation and have a company who is willing to sponsor them for a position related to the applicant’s skill. This visa is also available for applicants employed by an overseas company who offer them employment in the company’s Australian office.

To be eligible for a visitor visa a person must have a genuine intention to visit Australia - for travel/holiday purposes or to visit family members or friends. The visitor must have adequate funds to support their stay in Australia.
