mandymcqueen Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Can anyone clarify that as along as your occupation has an ANZSCO code you are eligible to apply for RSMS (employer sponsored). So confused and I am getting different answers from 2 different agents any advise would be appreciated. This is what the immi website states - But what is classed as skilled???? The Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (RSMS) allows employers in regional or low population growth areas of Australia, to sponsor employees who are foreign nationals for a permanent visa to work in Australia. Who is this visa for? This visa is for employers operating in regional and low population growth areas of Australia, who want to sponsor skilled workers to fill skilled vacancies in their business. The employees applying for a visa can be either of the following: skilled workers from overseas skilled temporary residents currently in Australia. Visa applicants who are currently living and/or working in Australia on a qualifying visa can apply for the onshore RSMS (subclass 857) visa. If you do not hold a qualifying visa, you may still be eligible to apply in Australia if you last held a qualifying visa no more than 28 days prior to lodging an application.
