The Temporary Business Long Stay Visa Subclass 457 permits Australian employers to sponsor overseas candidates for a period of 3 months to 4 years. This Work Visa is an extremely popular way for businesses to bring foreign candidates to work in Australia.
In order to offer sponsorship to a skilled overseas worker, an employer must obtain sponsorship and nomination approval first. Employers can be:
- An Australian business which is actively and actually engaged in business activities
- An overseas business which has no formal operating base or representation in Australia which is seeking to:
- Set up a branch or other business activities such as joint ventures, agency distributorships or subsidiary branches in Australia
- To meet obligations for a contract or other business activity in Australia
- Regional employers who can access special arrangements in meeting the minimum salary and skill levels for the nominated position.
There are specific requirements which must be met by the Australian employer before the Visa application can be considered.
