Applying for an employee sponsored visa can be very exciting as you move to a new country, work in a corporate environment, gain new skills, experience a different culture, and taste some of the world’s finest coffee if you’re lucky to come to Melbourne. Nevertheless, there are some additional conditions or requirements that the employer of your sponsored visa has to fulfill when you lodge your VISA.
Caveat Meaning
The caveat is a condition or limitation that may be imposed such as a notice where certain actions may not be taken without informing the individual who gave the notice.
These conditions can occur when an occupation that you are applying for your employer sponsored visa either has too broad or difficult constraints with ensuring that the skills you provide for a skilled position are necessary. These conditions occur for a few visa subclasses, specifically 482 and 186.
Managing Caveat
Caveats are utilized to ensure that the skill level of the applicant or nominee of the employer sponsored visa is at the appropriate skill level and that the application is in shortage in Australia. Most importantly Caveats are there to protect the nominee of the employer sponsored visa. For instance, a caveat may state that an employee must receive a paid annual earning of a specified amount, in the instance that an employer nominates someone with a lower salary, the Caveat will be enacted and state that it cannot be approved and must oblige with the caveat recommendations.
An employer sponsored visa can have many headaches or twists and turns with regards to caveats, ensuring you understand what caveats are, what they entail for you, and how you benefit from them is important. Employer sponsored visas are a great opportunity for job employment and experience, talk to an expert in migration to understand the Caveats will be extremely beneficial for you and your job.

/in Latest News /by Liang LuThe Western Australia Government is implementing new initiatives to attract skilled migrants and international students to Western Australia to help ease skills shortages.
As part of the State Government’s $195 million Reconnect WA strategy, an additional 194 occupations have been added to the Graduate Occupation List – taking the total number of listed occupations to 331 – to attract more international students to study in WA.

The changes will simultaneously support the international education sector and add to WA’s pipeline of skilled workers in priority areas.
The new initiatives also complement strategies to address skills shortages following industry consultation at the Perth and Regional Skills Summits.

VISA 155 and VISA 157 Resident Return VISA in Australia
/in Blog /by Liang LuAs the limitations and restrictions of the pandemic have been lifted for many Australians as well as travel zones being established between countries. Many Australian permanent residents are seeking out 155 VISAs or 157 VISAs. VISA applications can be very time-consuming and tiring, so for today, we will talk about a very popular VISA lodgement that many Australians enquire and lodge about, 155 VISA and 157 VISA.
VISAs are an endorsement on a passport stating that the passport holder is allowed to enter, leave or stay for a specified period of time in a certain country. With a 155 VISA or 157 VISA, you are allowed to travel in and out of Australia as many times as you want until the travel validity of said VISA expires. Some VISA costs can range between $410 to $490, anything cheaper is guaranteed to involve fraud, identity theft, or scam, whereas anything higher is simply a waste of money and may take longer than the expected time you should be waiting for the VISA processing time.
People who meet the requirements: Australian Permanent Resident, Former Permanent Resident whose last VISA was not canceled, or a former Australian citizen who lost or renounced citizenship. These people are allowed to apply for the 155 VISA and 157 VISA as many times as possible after their VISA expiry regardless of their age. Depending on your residence satisfactory requirements, you may be granted between 3 months to 5 years of VISA validity depending on if you lodge for 155 VISA or 157 VISA.
A 155 VISA or 157 VISA generally takes a few days after application lodgement when they have met the residence requirement of living in Australia for 2 years out of 5 years. However, individuals who do not meet this standard of requirement may take up to 12 weeks or longer for processing. On the Australian Immigration website, 25% – 75% of applications take less than 1 day to 2 days of processing for 155 VISA. The 157 VISA can take between 3 – 5 months.
At Korry Link Migration Consultants, we pride ourselves on being a part of the Migration and Education Services, dedicated to helping people like you with travel inquiries and VISA applications. Looking to lodge a VISA with a smooth application process without any headaches, check out our website today and contact us to see how we can help you with your travel requirements.
Australia is to Reopen International Borders from February 21, 2022
/in Latest News /by Liang LuAfter almost two years, Australia will reopen its international borders and welcome back fully vaccinated tourists from February 21. Prime Minister Scott Morrison made the announcement on Monday (7 February 2022) just hours after the government’s national security committee was briefed on the latest health advice. While the international borders have been opened since late 2021, entry has only been allowed for citizens, permanent residents and their families, with it later expanded to international students, backpackers and migrant workers.
From 21 February, people including visitors who have received two vaccination jabs will be allowed to enter Australia. Home Affairs Minister Karen Andrews said unvaccinated travellers would still need to apply for a travel exemption to come to Australia and have to undergo hotel quarantine if they were granted permission to enter the country.
