VELawyers’ team of work visa specialists is comprised of lawyers and registered migration agents who can help individuals and businesses (Australian and overseas) to secure the work visas needed (e.g. 494 visa, 186 ENS visa, 482 Skills in Demand visa) in order to undertake legal work in Australia.
Australia’s skilled migration program is points-based, and applicants do not necessarily need a job offer to apply. Skilled workers may be eligible for a Skilled Independent (189), Skilled Nominated (190) or Skilled Work Regional (491) visa.
In order to undertake full-time study in Australia, most students from overseas will need to get a Confirmation of Enrolment (COE), then apply for and secure an Australian Student visa. Individuals who complete their studies in Australia are often able to apply to stay in Australia to work after they graduate on a Temporary Graduate (485) visa.
The Australian Government closed the Business Innovation and Investment Program, including the 188 and 132 visas, on 31 July 2024. Business owners, investors and entrepreneurs may now consider the National Innovation visa, employer-sponsored options, or the New Zealand Business Investor Work Visa. We also continue to help 188 visa holders move to the permanent 888 visa.
There are a variety of visas suitable for close family members of permanent residents and citizens of Australia, such as the Partner Visa, Parent Visa, and Child Visa.
You can determine your chances of qualifying for permanent residence in Australia with our PR Points Calculator.

If you or a loved one has had their visa cancelled, or their visa application refused, we may be able to help. We can also provide advice on how best to prepare your application to minimise the risk of refusal.
