BUSINESS & ENTERPRISE SERVICES
From the initial sponsorship question to the worker’s application and ongoing obligations, agree the support your organisation needs.
Prepare Standard Business Sponsorship (SBS) for eligible employment arrangements, or Temporary Activities Sponsorship (TAS) where the proposed training or activity requires it. Review existing approvals before starting again.
Assess the proposed duties, candidate background, visa history and work location together. Identify evidence, skills-assessment or professional requirements that may affect the migration plan.
Coordinate the employer nomination and supporting business, position, salary and recruitment evidence required for the chosen pathway.
Prepare the worker’s visa application within the agreed engagement, keeping the employer and individual requirements aligned and their responsibilities clear.
Advise on the obligations that apply to your sponsor type, including relevant records, notifications and employment or training changes. Plan for compliance beyond the application decision.
The scope of assistance and respective employer and worker representation are agreed before work starts. Employers retain their employment decisions, workplace responsibilities and sponsor duties.
YOUR WORKPLACE
Discuss proposed appointments for medical practitioners and other skilled hospital or practice roles. The particular duties, employing entity and candidate circumstances guide the migration assessment.
Explore the migration requirements for proposed nursing and care-related appointments. Different roles can have different registration, assessment and pathway requirements; a care setting does not establish eligibility.
Bring the proposed role and professional background for discussion, including relevant allied health or laboratory appointments. Not every healthcare occupation is regulated through the same professional body.
These examples describe roles and business settings we can discuss. Eligibility depends on the actual duties, employer, worker and selected pathway.
VISA PATHWAYS
Employment, permanent nomination, regional work and training have different requirements. Start with the work to be done, rather than a preferred visa number.
Assess temporary sponsored employment against the actual duties, applicable occupation requirements and employer and candidate criteria.
Explore the 482 pathway →Consider permanent employer nomination under the relevant stream. A current temporary visa or job offer does not by itself establish eligibility.
Explore permanent nomination →For a position in a designated regional area, assess the regional, role, employer and applicant requirements together.
Explore the regional pathway →Where there is a genuine eligible training purpose, review the training plan, participant and appropriate sponsorship and nomination arrangements.
Explore training arrangements →Where standard arrangements do not fit, a labour agreement may need separate assessment. It is not an automatic alternative for every business or role.
ONE COORDINATED PROCESS
Start with your business, the role, candidate and intended timing. Identify the pathway to assess, evidence gaps and the scope of assistance.
Agree responsibilities and coordinate the relevant sponsorship, nomination and visa applications. Keep the business and candidate evidence connected.
Review commencement checks and applicable sponsor responsibilities. Seek advice when employment, training or business circumstances change.
Application decisions, professional approvals and recruitment decisions are separate. Avoid committing to a start date before the relevant requirements and work rights are confirmed.
SECTOR CONSIDERATIONS
A healthcare job title is only the starting point. Review duties, location, employment terms and the candidate’s qualifications and experience before selecting a pathway or preparing nomination evidence.
Professional registration, supervision and any other permissions must be checked for the particular role. For medical practitioners, additional practice arrangements may need attention. A visa grant does not itself authorise clinical practice.
Consider application preparation, registration status and the employer’s own checks together. We can help organise the migration work around the proposed appointment, but cannot promise a clinical start date or another authority’s decision.

EMPLOYER QUESTIONS
Yes. Bring the current status, relevant correspondence and proposed role. We can identify how the registration position affects migration planning without assuming that a pending application will be approved.
No. The appropriate option depends on the position, employer and worker. Professional requirements also differ, so a pathway used for one appointment should not automatically be reused for another.
Include the organisation that will employ the worker and explain any practice, hospital or group arrangements. We can review the proposed structure and identify the information needed for sponsorship and nomination.
Our agreed service concerns migration advice and applications. Professional bodies decide registration, and employers retain their employment checks. Visa, registration and workplace requirements should all be considered before commencement is fixed.
General information, checked 19 October 2026. Requirements depend on the pathway and circumstances.
