Points-Based 189, 190, or 491 Visas or Employer-Sponsored 482 or 494 Visas: Which Path Should You Take?
Choosing the right migration path to Australia can be challenging, particularly when deciding between points-based visas like the 189, 190, 491, and employer-sponsored options such as the 482, 494 visa. This blog will explore each of these pathways, highlighting their unique benefits and why it might be wise to consider pursuing multiple options simultaneously.
Points-Based Visas VS Employer Sponsorship:
Points-Based Visas (189, 190, 491):
These visas provide pathways to work and live in Australia, often leading to permanent residency. They require applicants to meet specific criteria, including a points test, to receive an invitation to apply. Let's look at each visa:
189 Visa - Skilled Independent Visa
190 Visa - Skilled Nominated Visa
491 Visa - Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) Visa
Why Consider Points-Based Visas?
Points-based visas offer freedom and flexibility, allowing visa holders to live and work anywhere in Australia (for the 189 visa) or in designated areas (for the 190 and 491 visas). These visas are particularly appealing as they do not rely solely on securing a job offer from an employer, offering more personal and professional independence.
Challenges with Points-Based Visas:
While attractive, these visas come with the challenge of uncertainty. The process requires submitting an EOI and waiting for an invitation, which is not guaranteed. If you are on a temporary visa in Australia, the waiting period may result in your current visa expiring before receiving an invitation, leaving your residency status uncertain.
Employer-Sponsored Visas:
Employer-sponsored visas offer a more predictable route if you can secure a job with an Australian employer willing to sponsor you. Here’s why they might be a good option:
482 Visa - Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa
494 Visa - Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) Visa
Why Consider Employer Sponsorship?
If you secure an employer willing to sponsor you, you don't have to wait for a government invitation.
Challenges with Employer Sponsorship:
Finding a Sponsor: One of the biggest challenges is finding an Australian employer willing to sponsor your visa.
We have a blog with some tips on how to find a sponsor in Australia. Click here to read.
Costs and Complexity: Employer-sponsored visas involve multiple stages, including nomination, sponsorship, and visa application, making the process both costly and complex.
Should You Go for Points-Based Visas or Employer Sponsorship?
We recommend pursuing both points-based and employer-sponsored pathways. While points-based visas offer more freedom, they come with the uncertainty of waiting for an invitation.
