Hi Aliya,
Thanks for reaching out! 🙂
Could you share a bit more about the agency you mentioned? Is it an employment agency helping you find a job, or a migration agency assisting with your visa application?
Also, in the banking industry, what specific role do you work in (e.g., financial analyst, loan officer, risk management, etc.)? Knowing more about your occupation can help determine the best visa pathways for you.
If it has been two years without an invitation, it may be worth reviewing your visa strategy. Some factors that could affect your invitation include your occupation’s status on the skilled occupation lists, your points score, and whether employer sponsorship is a better option. Once I have more details, I can guide you on potential next steps.
Looking forward to your reply! 🙂
All the best

I am w with the Y-Axis Immigration agency. They informed that they will be helping me with the visa processing along with PR.
I am working with State Bank of India for the past 17 years. Presently I am posted as the relationship manager for NRI and Wealth clients. Basically I deal with investment portfolio management and deposit mobilisation. Customer service is the main area of concentration. I am having an exposure in credits and advances .
I was informed that i won’t be getting any sponsorship in the financial career. So I need to wait for my nomination. Actually I dont have a clear picture of these processes. I have started my visa processing in 2023 and I have made the payment for my visa in 2024 . They told me the process will be valid for 3 years only.
I will be thankful if you could explain me in the actual process involved in my migration process.
Thank you

Thanks for the details, Aliya!
It sounds like Y-Axis is assisting you with a skilled migration visa, likely under the General Skilled Migration (GSM) program, which includes the Subclass 189 (Skilled Independent Visa), Subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated Visa), or Subclass 491 (Skilled Work Regional Visa).
Your occupation as a Relationship Manager (Banking) doesn’t appear on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), which means employer sponsorship through the Subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage Visa) is not an option. This explains why they mentioned you need to wait for a nomination.
Understanding the Process You’re In
1. Skill Assessment – You would need a positive skills assessment from an assessing authority relevant to your occupation. Did Y-Axis assist you with this step?
2. Expression of Interest (EOI) in SkillSelect – You must submit an EOI and claim points based on age, English proficiency, work experience, education, and other factors.
3. State Nomination (if applicable) – If applying for a Subclass 190 or 491 visa, a state or territory government must nominate you. Have you applied for state nomination, or are you waiting for an invitation under Subclass 189?
4. Invitation to Apply (ITA) – You cannot apply for the visa until you receive an invitation from the Department of Home Affairs.
5. Visa Application Submission & Payment – Once invited, you can lodge your visa application and pay the fees. If you paid in 2024, does this mean you received an ITA, or was this a service fee to Y-Axis?
6. Processing & Grant – Visa processing can take months to years depending on demand and eligibility.
Concerns with Your Case
If Y-Axis said the process is valid for 3 years, they might be referring to the validity of your EOI. However, if you haven’t received an invitation yet, it’s important to reassess your eligibility and strategy.
It’s unclear whether you have applied for state nomination, which might be necessary given your occupation’s status.
Did Y-Axis confirm which ANZSCO code they used for your skill assessment and if so would you mind sharing it with me as this will help us re qualify the visa options?
Next Steps
If you have not applied for state nomination, you should explore eligible states that might sponsor your occupation.
Check your EOI points score, if it’s low, improving English test scores or other factors might help. Se this simple points calculation guide here.
Confirm with Y-Axis whether your visa application has actually been lodged or if you are still waiting for an ITA.
Happy to help where I can.
Regards
Mark
