Frequently asked questions
Below are our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) to help you better understand our services and the migration process at Skill Direct.
1. Can I lodge the Sponsorship, Nomination, and Visa applications concurrently?
That is not possible. You must have an active approved sponsor and an approved nomination in place prior to submitting your visa application to the Department.
2. Am I permitted to engage in additional employment while undergoing my training?
Condition 8102 restricts your employment to activities essential to your academic or vocational training. Undertaking unrelated manual work or secondary jobs not stipulated in your training plan is unauthorized and may lead to visa cancellation.
3. My Subclass 407 visa is nearing its expiry date; am I eligible to apply for an extension?
Extension of a 407 visa is not permitted under current regulations. If you wish to continue your stay, it is mandatory to apply for a new visa and secure a fresh nomination.
