MOVE TO AUSTRALIA VIA DIRECT WORK PERMIT PROGRAM

The Australia Direct Work Permit Program primarily refers to the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa (subclass 482), which allows Australian employers to sponsor foreign workers to fill specific skill shortages. This program is designed to help businesses access skilled labor while providing foreign workers the opportunity to live and work in Australia.

Key features include:

  1. Sponsorship: Employers must be approved as sponsors and demonstrate that the position is genuine and cannot be filled by local workers.

  2. Skill Level: Applicants must meet the required skill level for the occupation and possess relevant qualifications and experience.

  3. Duration: The visa can be granted for up to four years, depending on the occupation and the terms of the sponsorship.

  4. Pathway to Permanent Residency: In some cases, holders of this visa may transition to permanent residency through various pathways.

This program aims to address labor shortages in Australia while ensuring the protection of local job markets.
