The 186 Visa, often known as the Employer Nomination Scheme, offers overseas workers who secure nominations from Australian sponsors a path to permanent residency. Various visa streams are available under the framework of the employer nomination program 186, depending on the applicant's distinctive qualifications.

Immigration & Visa so far
The subclass 186 visa provides unconditional access to Australian permanent residency. Dependent family members may be included in this visa category. Holders have the right to live and work anywhere in Australia. Despite the fact that the visa is awarded based on specific skilled occupation competence, it does not require continued work in that occupation after acceptance.
The Temporary Residence Transition (TRT) Stream and the Direct Entry (DE) Stream both have their own set of requirements. To apply through the TRT stream, you must have a subclass 457, 482, or similar bridging visa. Meanwhile, the DE stream allows applicants from both Australia and beyond.
To begin the application procedure, an employer nomination must be submitted on the candidate's behalf. This nomination describes the nominated occupation, employment terms, the financial feasibility of the nominating company, and the reason for the position's availability. The Skilling Australia Fund levy must also be submitted with the nomination. Following that, a visa application can be submitted. It is essential to meet the health and character requirements. It is necessary to have a decent English score (such as IELTS 6 or equivalent, unless exempt). This thorough pathway to permanent residency demonstrates Australia's commitment to qualified individuals while preserving their career options.

The 186 visa grants permanent residency, allowing you to stay in Australia indefinitely. It has the potential to act as a stepping stone to eventual citizenship.
Once your 186 visa is approved, you will have full resident rights. You do not need to stay in your job for the entire two years if you can demonstrate that your application was made in good faith and that the employment relationship has ended.
If you provided fake documents during the application procedure, the Australian government has the authority to terminate your visa.
Direct Entry Stream:
This route requires a nomination from an Australian employer and a skilled occupation from the occupation list. If approved, you will be granted permanent residency in Australia, with direct entry from your home country.
Labour Agreement Stream:
Designed for employers covered by a labour agreement, this stream requires employer nomination for a skilled occupation included on the skilled occupation list. You will be granted Australian permanent residency if your application is successful, allowing you to live and work in Australia for a longer period.
Temporary Residence Transition Stream:
This stream is designed for individuals nominated by their employer and requires at least three years of full-time employment with the existing company. Employment under a 457, TSS, or other bridging visa is included. The 186 visa allows for permanent residency, allowing you to stay in Australia beyond your existing residence.
Follow these steps to obtain a successful Visa 186 nomination:
Eligible Sponsor:
Make sure you have an eligible sponsor who matches the standards for the chosen stream. The eligibility of your employment may fluctuate based on the stream you are looking for.
Eligible Occupation:
Your occupation must come under the skilled occupation list and meet the skills assessment criteria in order for your sponsor to nominate you for Visa 186.
Sponsor Application:
If both you and your employer meet the qualifying requirements, your employer can begin the nomination process. This procedure entails submitting the nomination.
English skills:
For the Visa 186 application, you must demonstrate your English language skills. This can be demonstrated through citizenship, school records, or internationally recognized language tests.
Language Prerequisites:
Depending on the stream, you must demonstrate functional or fluent English skills.
