Welcome Mehboob.

I guess that depends on what type of job you are looking for. 🙂 I see you have tagged this post with plumbing so assume this is what you are looking for.

We have our own job boards at https://482jobs.com that list a curated collection of jobs offering visa sponsorship in Australia

https://seek.com.au is probably the largest job board in Australia though you will need to do a little more work to find the jobs that offer Visa sponsorship.

Let us know a little more about what you are looking for and I shall assist where I can.

Hi Tanya, I’m really sorry to hear about your loss, and it’s completely understandable that you’d need time to process everything. 😔

In your case, while your student visa (subclass 500) remains technically valid, having a suspended or cancelled CoE does impact your visa conditions.

The Department of Home Affairs requires all student visa holders to maintain an active CoE. If your education provider reports the deferment and suspension of your CoE to PRISMS (Provider Registration and International Student Management System), the Department may begin assessing your visa for possible cancellation under section 137J of the Migration Act 1958.

That said, personal and compassionate circumstances like bereavement can absolutely be taken into account. Here’s what you should do:

1. Contact the Department of Home Affairs as soon as possible and explain your situation, providing evidence such as a letter from your education provider, a death certificate (if available), and a personal statement.
2. Ensure your education provider has reported the deferment correctly as “compassionate and compelling circumstances.” This can support your case and may prevent visa cancellation.
3. Monitor your email and ImmiAccount closely for any communication from the Department. You’ll have a chance to respond if a Notice of Intention to Consider Cancellation (NOICC) is issued.

You may be able to remain in Australia while awaiting your new CoE in July, particularly if the Department accepts your compassionate grounds. However, there is always some risk when you don’t hold an active CoE.

If you receive a NOICC, it’s strongly recommended to seek advice from a registered migration agent or immigration lawyer to help you respond effectively.

I hope this helps clear up your position during this difficult time. Let me know if you’d like help with anything else

Warm regards, Mark

Hi Eric, welcome to the forum and thank you for your question 🙂

As a Restaurant Manager (ANZSCO 141111), you have a good chance of securing a visa sponsorship job in Australia.

Your occupation is currently listed on the Short-term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL), meaning you may be eligible for employer-sponsored visas such as:

1. Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa – Subclass 482

Requires an employer to sponsor you.

Initially granted for up to 2 years (with possible extension).

Not a direct pathway to permanent residency (unless under a DAMA agreement).

2. Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) Visa – Subclass 494

Requires sponsorship from a regional employer.

Leads to permanent residency after 3 years.

How to Find Visa Sponsorship Jobs

To increase your chances of finding a sponsored job:

Check 482jobs.com (https://482jobs.com) – This is one of our websites where all jobs listed are confirmed to offer visa sponsorship (a few restaurant manager roles are listed).

Use job portals like:

Seek (https://seek.com.au)

Indeed (https://indeed.com.au)

As the latter two list both sponsored and non sponsored positions add terms such as sponsorship to your search criteria to help filter the results.

Welcome to our community, Tadele! 🙂

As a lathe machine operator and welder, your occupation could fall under different ANZSCO (Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations) codes, depending on your specific skills and experience.

Here are the likely codes:

Lathe Operator – ANZSCO 712311

Welder (First Class) – ANZSCO 322313

Are These Occupations on a Skilled List?

Welder (ANZSCO 322313) is on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), meaning there are more visa options available.

Lathe Operator (ANZSCO 712311) is not on the main skilled occupation lists, so it is unlikely to qualify for a skilled visa.

Possible Visa Options for a Welder (322313):

1. Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa (Subclass 482) – Requires employer sponsorship. You can search for visa-sponsored jobs on 482Jobs.com, where all listed jobs offer sponsorship.

2. Skilled Independent Visa (Subclass 189) – A points-tested visa for occupations on the MLTSSL. No employer sponsorship required but competitive.

3. Skilled Nominated Visa (Subclass 190) – Requires state nomination. Each state has different requirements.

4. Skilled Work Regional Visa (Subclass 491) – Requires regional nomination and provides a pathway to permanent residency.

5. Employer Nomination Scheme (Subclass 186) – Permanent visa available through employer sponsorship.

English Language Skills

For most Australian work visas, good written and spoken English is required. You may need to take an English test like IELTS or PTE. Improving your English will help with job applications and visa eligibility.

Next Steps

Look for visa-sponsored jobs on https://482jobs.com.

If needed, improve English skills to meet visa and employer requirements.

Consider skills assessment through TRA (Trades Recognition Australia) if applying for a skilled visa.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

Temporary Skill Shortage TSS Visa (Subclass 482) - Getting Down Under

When it comes to moving to Australia, one of the most confusing aspects is the vast myriad of visa options you can choose as a basis for your Australia Visa

[Mark]

Hey Wong,

Thanks for sharing your journey! While I may not personally be able to relate to your experiences, I’m more than happy to help guide you on your Australian visa options.

Since you have a Civil Engineering degree and work experience, you have a couple of potential pathways:

1. Skilled Migration (PR Pathway) – Civil Engineer (ANZSCO 233211) is on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), meaning you can apply for permanent visas like:

   • Subclass 189 (Skilled Independent Visa) – No sponsorship needed, points-based system.
   • Subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated Visa) – Requires state nomination.
   • Subclass 491 (Skilled Work Regional Visa) – Requires regional state nomination but has a pathway to PR.

   Since you’re already an Engineers Australia (EA) member, you’d likely need to complete a Skills Assessment with them if you haven’t already.

2. Employer-Sponsored Visa – You can look for an employer to sponsor you under the Subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage Visa). This is a great option if you secure a job offer first. You can find sponsored jobs at https://482jobs.com, a platform dedicated to visa-sponsored roles.

Your choice depends on your priorities really:

if you qualify for a PR visa through points, it could be a stronger long-term option, whereas a sponsored job could be a quicker way in but requires an employer willing to sponsor.

If you’re open to it, I’d suggest checking your points for PR eligibility (see here for an easy calculator) while simultaneously looking for sponsored roles.

Let me know if I can help you with regards to anything else.

Regards,

Mark

Hi Macauley. I’m still here though remember I’m in Western Australia so given the time differences between Nigeria and Australia.. a man’s got to sleep sometimes 😀

Your experience in caring for elderly and disabled people is very valuable. Aged Care Workers and Disability Support Workers are in high demand in Australia, and many employers offer visa sponsorship.

Step 1: Understand the Job Requirements

The roles of Aged Care Worker (ANZSCO 423111) and Disability Support Worker (ANZSCO 423112) involve tasks like:

• Assisting elderly or disabled individuals with daily activities (bathing, dressing, meal preparation).
• Providing emotional support and companionship.
• Helping with mobility and medication reminders.
• Maintaining a clean and safe living environment.

Most employers require some form of training such as a Certificate III or IV in Individual Support (Aged Care or Disability).

However, some regional employers sponsor workers without formal training if they have hands-on experience like you do!

Step 2: Apply for Aged Care & Disability Support Jobs with Visa Sponsorship

The best way to find a sponsored job is to apply directly to employers looking for overseas workers. Start with these websites:

https://482jobs.com – All jobs here offer visa sponsorship.

https://seek.com.au – Search for “Aged Care Worker visa sponsorship” or “Disability Support Worker visa sponsorship.”

https://indeed.com.au – Another good job board for sponsorship opportunities.

Step 3: Improve Your Chances with a Good Resume

Australian employers prefer resumes in a specific format. To make sure yours stands out, check our resume guide here:

https://482jobs.com/australia-resume-tips-craft-winning-resume/

You can also upload your resume to https://482jobs.com/candidates/submit-resume/ so recruiters looking for overseas candidates can find you.

Step 4: Consider a Short Training Course

This one is quite important. If you want to increase your chances, you can complete an online Certificate III in Individual Support (Aged Care or Disability). Some employers may even assist with training if they hire you though if you have some form of qualification related to the role it will help you significantly.

Step 5: Employer Sponsorship & Visa Application

Once you secure a job offer, the employer will sponsor you for a Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa (subclass 482) or a Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 494) if the job is in a regional area.

I hope this helps.

That’s great to hear, Macauley! Since you’re open to the idea. Here a few suggestions.

Step 1: Choose an Occupation with Strong Migration Prospects

Since your current roles don’t directly qualify for the 491 or 494 visa, the best option is to gain skills or qualifications in an occupation that is in high demand. Some great options include:

Aged Care Worker / Disability Support Worker – Strong demand, employer-sponsored opportunities.

Chef / Cook – Many regional jobs offer sponsorship.

Trades (Electrician, Plumber, Welder, Carpenter, etc.) – Highly sought after.

Teaching (Early Childhood, Primary, or Secondary Education) – Requires formal qualifications.

Would you be open to training in one of these fields?

Step 2: Study or Gain Experience in Australia or Overseas

You can study in Australia through a student visa (subclass 500), then transition to a work visa after completing your course.

Alternatively, you can gain experience in your home country and apply for a skills assessment later.

Step 3: Job Search for Employer Sponsorship

Once you have skills in an in-demand occupation, you can look for jobs that offer visa sponsorship. The best place to start is:

https://482jobs.com – All jobs here offer sponsorship.

https://seek.com.au – Search for “visa sponsorship” roles.

https://indeed.com.au – Good for industry-specific roles.

Step 4: Explore the Right Visa Pathway

If you get an employer sponsor, you can apply for a 482 visa or 494 visa.

If you study in Australia, you can apply for a Graduate visa (subclass 485) and later move to a permanent skilled visa.

If you qualify for the 491 visa, you can apply for state nomination after meeting requirements.

I hope that gives you some food for though. Let me know if you’d like me to expand on any of these points.
