    Hi Shiva,

    Thanks for confirming your ANZSCO code! Based on Insurance Agent (ANZSCO 611211) being on the Short-Term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL), you do have some visa options, but it’s important to understand the requirements and pathways available.

    Visa Options Available for You

    1. Skilled Migration Pathways (Points-Tested Visas)
      These require you to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) through SkillSelect and be invited by a state or territory:

      • Skilled Nominated Visa (Subclass 190) – Requires state nomination and provides permanent residency (PR).
      • Skilled Work Regional Visa (Subclass 491) – A provisional visa requiring state or regional nomination. Leads to PR after meeting eligibility criteria.

    You’ll need a positive skills assessment from VETASSESS and a competitive points score to receive an invitation to the above visa types.

    1. Employer-Sponsored Visas (Job Offer Required)
      If you can secure a job offer, you may be eligible for:

      • Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa (Subclass 482 – Short-Term Stream) – Employer-sponsored, up to two years, with a potential one-time renewal but no direct PR pathway.
      • Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Subclass 494) – For regional jobs. Provides a pathway to PR after three years.
      • Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (Subclass 187) – Requires employer nomination in a regional area.

    The key challenge is finding an employer willing to sponsor you.

    1. Training Visa (Subclass 407)
      If you need more experience or structured training, this visa lets you undertake workplace-based training with an approved employer.

    Next Steps: Finding a Job in Australia

    Since you’re looking for job assistance, I’d recommend:

    • Checking job boards like 482jobs.com (where employers offer visa sponsorship) or seek.com.au adding sponsorship to your search terms to help narrow the jobs down.
    • Networked on LinkedIn and contacted companies directly in the insurance industry.
    • Exploring state nomination options (each state has different criteria for occupations on the STSOL).
    • Consider regional jobs, as some regions actively sponsor candidates in your field.

    Please let me know if you have any further questions and I’ll be happy to help where I can!

    Cheers,
    Mark
