Skills in Demand Visa: Replacing Temporary Skills Shortage (subclass 482) Visa

The Skills in Demand (SID) Visa has now replaced the Subclass 482 Temporary Skills Shortage (TSS) visa, offering exciting new opportunities for both skilled workers and employers in Australia.

The SID visa enables Australian employers to sponsor skilled workers from overseas to fill positions that cannot be sourced locally. The new visa maintains the goal of addressing critical workforce shortages while offering three streams tailored to different skill levels and employment needs.

With updated eligibility criteria and an emphasis on skilled migration, the SID visa provides a more streamlined process for both employers and employees. Whether you are a business looking to hire top talent or a skilled worker seeking to live and work in Australia, the SID visa provides an important opportunity to address Australia’s labour shortages.
