To be eligible for the Subclass 186 visa, applicants need to meet specific criteria related to their occupation, skills, qualifications, and English language proficiency. They also need to be nominated by an eligible employer who demonstrates a genuine need for the position and complies with labour market testing requirements.<\/p>
The Subclass 186 visa offers permanent residency status, allowing successful applicants and their families to live, work, and study in Australia indefinitely. It provides access to healthcare, education, and social security benefits, similar to Australian citizens.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
The 186 visa requires an employer nomination of skilled employment, and an acceptance for such employment in Australia.\u00a0 The applicant must have all the relevant skills and work experience to fill the position.<\/p>
