Application for Skilled Migration and Employer Sponsored Nomination Visa
May I ask if there is any advantage of applying for both Skilled Migration Visa and the Employer Sponsored Nomination visa at the same time ?
My partner is a chef and is making some contacts in Victoria whom we will arrange to meet up with when we fly down to Oz for a visit.
We have been told that appication for ESN is quicker than Skilled Migration visa.
Is it true that for the ESN, he would only be tied to the particular for 6 months, after which he can leave the employer and maintain his permanent visa status.
A related question, would one visa supercede the other visa ie, if he gets the skilled migration visa first, followed by the ESN visa later, would the ESN visa supercede the skilled migration visa?
You may asked why bothered with applying for two visas at the same time. Well we want to get to Oz soon, and if the employer is interested, then the ESN sounds like a good idea. But that is dependent whether the employer is keen to apply on his behalf.
We would appreciate your thoughts.
