There’s an increasing trend in Australian businesses to sponsor top foreign talent, there’s many good reasons for this. One bottleneck that business often face is the complex regulations around getting visa’s approved for their staff. Most businesses that opt to do the process themselves do so because they believe that they will save money. In this blog we’ll go through the top 3 reasons you should actually go through a migration agent.
Be sure that all requirements and regulations are interpreted correctly
The regulations and procedures which govern immigration are complex and change frequently. A migration agent can help navigate the process, ensuring accuracy and compliance with the most current rules and processes. Any misinterpretations of immigration requirements and procedures can have potentially serious consequences, not only in terms of financial costs but also in terms of affecting the people involved. Using a certified migration agent from the outset will ensure you avoid costly mistakes.
Identifying risk factors which affect your business as a whole and eliminate potential compliance issues
Businesses face challenges when it comes to employing foreign talent. Unfortunately, immigration requirements and sponsor responsibilities are not easily laid out for different businesses and industry areas. This is where the knowledge of a migration agent is essential. Drawing on their experience and familiarity with migration law, a migration agent will be able to recognise the risks that most affect your business. That way, non-compliance issues are unlikely to occur.
