If you are an employer waiting on a nomination, the queue you are in has been re-ordered.

Ministerial Direction 119 sets the order in which the Department picks up skilled applications for processing. It does not change who is eligible and it does not touch the occupation lists. What it changes is which files get looked at first.

The order runs law enforcement and defence occupations at the top. Then onshore workers in healthcare, teaching and construction, including housing-related trades. Then other onshore applicants. Then everyone offshore.

For an employer that has one practical consequence, and it is worth understanding before you decide who to nominate. An onshore candidate will generally sit ahead of a comparable offshore candidate in the queue. Same role, same evidence, and the offshore one sits further back. It applies across the visas you are most likely using already, which is 186, 482, 494, 189, 190 and 491.

One caveat.

Direction 119 does not guarantee faster processing. It affects where you sit in the order and nothing past that. If you are planning a start date on the strength of it, plan it loosely.

If you are waiting on a nomination or a skilled visa and want to know where your matter actually sits, get in touch.

On Saturday, I turned 41. Born and raised in Türkiye, thirteen years in Australia.

Pera was born in Perth and it is the only place she knows. Her mum and I arrived from Türkiye on a Work and Holiday visa, two suitcases and twelve months, and everything our daughter takes as ordinary is something we spent years not knowing whether we would get.

Australian Migration Co grew out of that.

It has a plain name on purpose. My own name sits under it and my registration number is on every page of our website, because when someone is holding your family’s future you should be able to check exactly who they are. I would rather be checkable than polished.

We built the Turkish site for the same reason. When we arrived there was almost nothing written in Turkish explaining how any of this works, so we spent a long time guessing. Now Australian Migration Co speaks to the people we were in 2013.

Most of my week now sits with WA business owners. They rarely call me about visas. They call because they have trained someone good and cannot work out how to keep them, or they have been advertising a role since winter and nobody local has applied.

Employer sponsorship is where I do my most useful work. It is also where I say the unglamorous part first: what the business is taking on, and what it will still be carrying long after a visa is decided. Nobody enjoys that conversation. It is the reason the ones who go ahead are not surprised later.

There is a five-year plan now, which there was not in 2013. Grow the employer side of the practice, bring in help so families are not waiting on one person, and put much more of it in Turkish.

The rest is slower and less impressive to write down. Registered migration agent, member of the Migration Institute of Australia, QEAC qualified, a graduate diploma finished while working, an office in the city, and a practice built around school pickup.

Pera will grow up thinking that is just what her dad does.

The Department of Home Affairs accepts nine English language tests, including IELTS, PTE Academic, Cambridge C1 Advanced, OET, TOEFL IBT, CELPIP General, LANGUAGECERT Academic, and the Michigan English Test. What matters is not the name of the test, but the score level required for the specific visa you are applying for. We have shared the latest score requirements table for your reference.

For a personalised assessment and guidance on selecting and planning your English language test, please feel free to contact us.
