Australia 494 Regional Employer Visa Consultation | PremierVisa
Have a potential role with a regional Australian employer? Review the subclass 494 pathway, employer nomination and your applicant evidence.
Key points before you apply
The 494 Employer Sponsored stream is a provisional regional visa. It requires an eligible nomination and generally a suitable skills assessment unless exempt. Occupation, work experience, age, English and regional requirements must be checked.
Review the role and regional location
Discuss the employer, nominated occupation and proposed duties. A job title alone is not enough to decide whether the role and your experience fit the pathway.
Build a clear application checklist
Prepare employment dates, qualifications, assessment records and English evidence. We help you organise the questions that need resolving with your employer before submission.
Keep later residence planning separate
Eligible holders may have a later permanent residence pathway, subject to the applicable rules and compliance. We do not guarantee a job, employer sponsorship or visa approval.
Speak with our Hong Kong team
PremierVisa Group offers consultations in English. Tell us your current location, the pathway you are considering and your main question. We will discuss the scope of assistance and next steps for your circumstances. Please avoid sending passport numbers or confidential records in an initial WhatsApp enquiry.
