Senior Executive Visa to Australia

There are two separate and distinct stages for the visa application in the Senior Executive category. Anyone wanting to move to Australia to set up a new business must first apply for the Provisional Visa. When the candidate has been successfully operating an Australian business or businesses for at least two years, he or she can apply for a permanent visa, Business Owner (Residence) Visa Subclass 890, or the State/Territory Sponsored Business Owner (Residence) Visa, Subclass 892.  

The criteria for entry to Australia as a Senior Executive Business Skills migrant are complex and relate closely to your personal history of business success and your research and plans for the new business. States and Territories in Australia encourage business migrants, and help with various types of advice, information on relevant taxes, commercial real estate on the market, and provide help and solid support for family settlement.

This visa class is for very Senior Executives that have been working in the top three management levels of a major business. Potential applicants should check the guidelines provided for the State/Territory Sponsored Senior Executive (Provisional) Visa, Subclass 164.

Depending on which State or Territory you apply to, and your type of business, a sponsorship will yield lower requirements on the financial requirements and a loosening of the age requirement. Some States/Territory include assistance with settlement and business set-up support. Sponsorship is well worth applying for.

ASSISTANCE WITH THIS VISA OR OTHER VISAS?

This is a very complicated visa application and the outcome of any application is problematic. Each visa candidate must meet the demanding requirements of the visa application. Each must find sponsorship. The help of a migration agent is very strongly advised.
