#47 - A Four-Tier Occupation Structure for Subclass 189
Saison 3 · Épisode 47
vendredi 22 mai 2026 • Durée 09:22
Episode Summary:
Today’s podcast will be centered around an internal planning tool – a four-tier occupation structure - that provides insight into why some occupations continue to receive invitations much faster than others for the Skilled Independent 189 program. The tiers serve as a guide to help understand how the DHA is viewing each occupation in the subclass 189 program and suggest how they will shape a pathway to permanent residency.
Final thoughts:
Don't rely on just points for a positive invitation outcome. You need to assess your occupation tier, invitation trend history, state nomination options, employer sponsorship options, and overall a well thought out strategy to stand out against a huge pool of skilled professionals.
An individual can have multiple occupations, which cuts across multiple tiers. This key factor can help you choose the right occupation which could potentially lead to a permanent residency.

#43 - MARA Agents - Professional Standards & Ethics
Saison 2 · Épisode 43
jeudi 29 mai 2025 • Durée 12:26
Episode Summary:
Getting professional help with your visa application for immigration purposes is common knowledge and practice. What most people aren’t aware of is that only certain people can provide immigration assistance: a migration agent, legal practitioner or an exempt person. OMARA – The office of the Migration Agents Registration Authority – a government body within the DHA, ensures that people who receive immigration advice are protected by registering only those who meet their qualification & character standards.
When a client hires the services of a migration agent, they place a great deal of trust in them. The client expects the agent to act competently & use their immigration knowledge to help them achieve the result they want. But they also want the agent to act ethically: that they will be honest, fair and act with integrity.
In today’s episode we shall deliberate on why ethics and ethical decision making is important to the work of a MARA agent.
Final thoughts:
Before you appoint someone to act on your behalf relating to your visa matter, make sure you have done your due diligence. Your authorized representative cannot provide immigration assistance unless they are: a registered migration agent, a legal practitioner, or an exempt person. It is important to know that any person who helps with your immigration matter cannot guarantee you a visa.

#41 - Digital Nomad Visa
Saison 2 · Épisode 41
jeudi 1 mai 2025 • Durée 10:42
Episode Summary:
Today we’re unpacking a topic that’s changed the way professionals think about work and travel — the Digital Nomad Visa. More and more countries like Portugal, Greece, Costa Rica, are inviting remote workers to live and work legally beyond their home borders.
Australia doesn't have a visa specifically designed for digital nomads. So, the question is, can digital nomads call Australia home — even temporarily — and what pathways exist if you’re dreaming of living and working here?
Whether you’re a freelancer, tech professional, or someone simply dreaming of a location-independent lifestyle, this episode is for you.
Closing Thoughts:
While we don’t yet have a formal visa stream tailored for remote workers, the world is shifting fast, and Australia’s migration system may well follow. If you’re a remote professional dreaming of living in Australia, it’s essential to understand the legal landscape and explore the right pathways. Just make sure you do your research, plan ahead, and know the legal implications.

#38 - Citizenship For Ordinarily Resident Children
Saison 2 · Épisode 38
mercredi 19 mars 2025 • Durée 07:12
Episode Summary:
A person can become an Australian citizen in different ways. Conferral and descent are the most common ways to become an Australian citizen provided you meet certain criteria before you apply.
According to the Australian Citizenship Act 2007, a person born in Australia is an Australian citizen if and only if:
a) a parent of the person is an Australian citizen or a permanent resident, at the time the person is born; or
b) the person is ordinarily resident in Australia throughout the period of 10 years beginning on the day the person is born.
In this podcast we shall explore what it means for a child to be ordinarily resident in Australia and how he/she may acquire their citizenship when they turn 10, regardless of their parent’s citizenship or immigration status.
