The Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa subclass 482 replaced the old 457 visa in March 2018. If you are searching for information about the 457 visa, please note that this visa has been abolished and the TSS 482 visa is its replacement.

The TSS 482 visa allows businesses to address labour shortages by sponsoring skilled workers from overseas. It has two streams: the Short-term stream (up to 2 years) and the Medium-term stream (up to 4 years). Occupations eligible for each stream are listed on the STSOL and MLTSSL respectively.

Visas Simply can help you navigate the TSS 482 visa application process. Call us on 1300 307 451.
