        • Indonesian Applicants:<\/strong> Submit an online application to DFAT (Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade) for a letter of support. Upon receiving the letter, apply for a Temporary Work (International Relations) visa (subclass 403) Government Agreement stream.<\/li>

          Important Considerations<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

          • Sending and host organizations should have an established relationship or collaborate specifically for the pilot program.<\/li>
          • Workplace placements must align with an appropriate skill level based on the participant’s qualifications and the targeted occupation.<\/li>
          • There is no requirement for Australian businesses to sponsor applicants on this pilot program, and labour market testing and TSMIT are not applied.<\/li>
          • Successful SDE Pilot applicants enter Australia on a Temporary Work (International Relations) subclass 403 visa Government Agreement stream. Applications for the program are open now.<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>

            \u00a0<\/p>
