Second Subclass 482 Nomination for Same Employer Approved in Three Days

Visa TypeSubclass 482
CategoryEmployer Sponsored

Case Summary

A second Subclass 482 nomination for the same employer — where a prior nomination had already succeeded — was approved in just three business days with no request for further information, through a rigorous review that treated the repeat application with the same thoroughness as a first-time lodgement.

Background

An employee had previously been sponsored for his first Subclass 482 visa by the same employer through another agency. The employer needed to lodge a second nomination for the same employee due to changed work requirements. Despite the prior success, a repeat nomination application carries the same risk of refusal as any other — inconsistent or incomplete documentation can trigger delays or refusal regardless of prior approvals.

Challenges

  • Repeat nomination applications are often treated with less rigour, increasing the risk of overlooked inconsistencies
  • All foundational documents — financial capacity, position genuineness, and salary compliance — needed to be re-verified and updated for the new nomination
  • The application needed to be decision-ready to achieve a fast turnaround without any requests for further information

How We Helped

Despite the prior sponsorship success, we conducted a comprehensive desktop review of all foundational documents, including the company's financial capacity, the genuineness of the position, and salary compliance with market rates. We guided the employer and employee to provide complete updated supporting documents, with particular focus on organisational charts, labour market testing evidence, and detailed position descriptions. All form data was cross-checked to ensure perfect alignment with the evidence, eliminating any potential discrepancies.
