Subclass 482 Visa Processing Times in Australia
The 482 visa is designed to address short- and medium-term labour shortages by allowing Australian businesses to sponsor skilled overseas workers. At Salvo Migration, we help both employers and employees understand the process, avoid common pitfalls, and prepare strong applications.
What Affects Processing Time?
Here are the key factors that influence how long your 482 visa may take to be processed:
Stream Type – Processing times differ between Short-Term, Medium-Term, and Labour Agreement streams.
Occupation & ANZSCO Code – Demand, caveats, and regional needs can affect how quickly your visa is assessed.
Nomination & Sponsorship Approval – Your employer must be an approved sponsor and lodge a compliant nomination before your visa is processed.
Document Quality – Missing or incomplete documents (e.g. skills assessments, employment history, police checks) can delay your application.
Health & Character Checks – Medical exams and police clearances must be completed correctly and on time.
Genuine Position Test – The Department must be satisfied the position is genuine and necessary within the business.
Processing Priority – Critical sectors like healthcare or infrastructure may be given priority under government directives.
Why Preparation Matters
Subclass 482 visas can be refused if nomination requirements, skills, work history, or employer compliance aren’t correctly demonstrated. Errors in the process can lead to delays, refusal, or bans on reapplying.
