Australia is a top choice for skilled workers looking for new career opportunities. Whether you’re planning to stay long-term or just for a short time, getting the right visa is important.
At Knowbal, we make it easy to apply for the right work visa. Our team will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring your application is completed correctly and on time.
Australia offers several types of work visas depending on your skills, job offer, and how long you want to stay.
Skilled migration visas are for workers who have the skills and qualifications needed in Australia. These visas allow you to live and work in Australia long-term. To apply, your skills must be on Australia’s Skilled Occupation List (SOL), which lists the occupations in demand across the country.
Key visas under this category:
Skilled Independent Visa (subclass 189): The subclass 189 visa is for skilled workers which allows you to live and work anywhere in Australia without getting sponsored by an employer or a state/territory government.
Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190): The subclass 190 visa is for skilled workers nominated by an Australian state or territory government. This visa may offer additional points for your application, helping you qualify.
If you already have a job offer in Australia, an employer-sponsored visa allows you to live and work here. Your employer will act as your sponsor and support your visa application.
Key visas under this category:
Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482): The subclass 482 visa is for skilled workers who are sponsored by an Australian employer to fill a specific job vacancy. This visa is temporary but can lead to permanent residency.
Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186): The subclass 186 visa is for skilled workers who are nominated by an Australian employer for permanent residency. The employer must offer you a permanent job position.
If you’re a young person (usually between 18-30 years old), the Working Holiday Visa lets you work and travel in Australia for up to 12 months. It’s perfect for those looking to explore Australia and work part-time while doing so.
For those who have recently graduated from an Australian educational institution, a Temporary Graduate Visa lets you stay and work in Australia for a few years to gain valuable work experience related to your field of study.
Before applying for certain work visas, you may need to complete a skills assessment. This is a process where an Australian authority verifies that your qualifications and work experience match Australian standards for your occupation. This is required for most skilled migration visas.
Whichever work visa, Knowbal’s team is here to help you choose the right option and ensure your application is as strong as possible.

Here’s how we can help:
We begin with a one-on-one consultation to understand your specific needs and check if you meet the eligibility criteria for a work visa. During this meeting, we’ll explain the visa options available to you and provide a clear outline of the steps involved and the documents you’ll need to gather.
Once you’ve decided on the visa you wish to apply for, we’ll assign your case to one of our experienced migration agents. They will handle the entire process, from gathering documents to submitting your application. You’ll always have a dedicated expert working on your case.
Your agent will help you collect all the necessary documents for your visa application. This can include your passport, qualifications, work experience evidence, English language test results, and in some cases, a job offer or skills assessment. We’ll ensure everything is correct, complete, and ready for submission.
Once we have all your documents in order, your agent will submit your work visa application on your behalf. We will double-check everything for accuracy and ensure that it’s submitted within the required timeframe.
After your work application is submitted, you need to wait while your application is being processed. The processing time will depend on the type of your work visa. During this time, your migration agent will keep you updated and inform you if any additional documents or information are needed.
Once your work visa has been processed, we’ll inform you of the outcome. If your visa is granted, we’ll explain any conditions attached to it. If there are any issues or the application is refused, we’ll guide you through the next steps and work with you to resolve any problems.
