🎉 494 DAMA Visa GRANTED – Nomination & Visa Approved Together!

We’re thrilled to share another success story 🎊
Our client just received both the nomination & 494 visa approval on the same day – under the DAMA (Designated Area Migration Agreement) stream!

📅 Timeline:
✔️ 4 June 2024 – Skills assessment submitted
✔️ 20 June 2024 – Skills assessment approved
✔️ 7 Sep 2024 – 494 nomination + visa lodged
✔️ 9 Apr 2025 – Nomination + Visa granted together!
🕐 Total processing time: only 10 months from skills assessment to visa grant!

🔍 What is the Employer-Sponsored Visa?
It allows Australian employers to sponsor skilled workers for temporary or permanent visas. The most common types are:
1️⃣ 482 visa – Temporary, can lead to PR via 186
2️⃣ 186 DE – Direct PR (permanent residency)
3️⃣ 494 visa – Provisional visa for regional areas, PR after 3 years (via 191)

📣 Recent Updates:
✅ 482 visa work experience requirement reduced to 1 year
✅ Stronger government support for regional and skilled migration

🌈 Why consider 494 or DAMA?
✔️ Age up to 45 (DAMA: up to 55!)
✔️ English requirement: IELTS 6 or PTE 50 (can be waived under DAMA)
✔️ Suitable for those whose occupation is not on the 186 list
✔️ Greater flexibility in experience, qualifications, and location

👉 Choosing the right occupation and visa strategy is key – not all jobs on the assessment list are eligible for migration!

🚀 482 DAMA Nomination Approved! 🎉
📌 Visa Type: 482 DAMA - Labour Agreement Stream
📌 Occupation: 141999 Accommodation and Hospitality Manager
Great news! After the employer’s DAMA sponsorship was approved by the state government, the client’s 482 nomination has now been approved! ✅

💡 This occupation is on the Short-Term Skilled Occupation List, meaning there are multiple visa pathways:
✔️ 190 State Nomination
✔️ 491 Regional State Nomination
✔️ 407 Training Visa
✔️ 482 (Short-Term) Work Visa
✔️ 494 Regional Employer Sponsored Visa
✔️ 186 (Transitional) PR

📢 Employer-Sponsored Visas :
🏡 186 Employer Nomination Scheme (PR) – Requires 3+ years of experience, IELTS 6 in all bands, and an occupation on the Medium-Term Skilled List for direct PR.
🔄 482 (Work Visa) → 186 (PR) – If you have at least 1 year of experience but lack IELTS 6, you can start with a 482 visa, gain experience, improve your English, and later transition to PR via 186.
🌍 494 (Regional Visa) → 191 (PR) – For occupations on short-term or regional lists, 3 years of full-time work and IELTS 6 are needed to transition from 494 to PR via 191.

📌 What is DAMA?
DAMA (Designated Area Migration Agreement) is a Labour Agreement stream under employer-sponsored visas. Instead of standard employer sponsorship, the state government endorses the employer, and Immigration grants the labour agreement sponsorship.

💡 For offshore applicants, onshore workers, and graduates, employer-sponsored pathways are becoming a key alternative to state nomination. A 482 visa can help build 1 year of work experience before transitioning to PR via employer sponsorship.
