subject: Australia Visa Formalities - Uncomplicated And Welcoming [print this page] The Government of Australia is encouraging businessmen to set up their businesses in Australia. Thus the State provides business visas to attract more and more people to this wonderful country for starting either a new business or to run an already existing business. The Government offers gradation of skilled migrants by offering them a skilled work visa.
This is one way of attracting thriving businessmen to move to Australia permanently and also reap the rewards of their hard work and toil. If the businessmen are a success here, the economy would run efficiently and the country's economic status would greatly improve.
The Government also helps in providing an Australian work visa for people who have already stayed in Australia working for some other company, but are now interested in remaining in Australia for development and management of their businesses. It is important to note here that getting a State sponsored business visa is not all that easy. One needs to follow certain tips before being eligible for getting one.
People interested in changing their profession or intending to start a business in Australia or getting into the management of the business would find it easier to get an Australian visa, if they already have a work visa.
In order to qualify for a business visa sponsored by the State, one needs to have stayed in Australia holding a work visa. One needs to have the sponsorship letter from the Australian authorities who have sanctioned the visa. Only if all the requisites have been fulfilled, it is easy to get the Australian business visa.
People who want to start their own business would need to send a separate application to the State authorities of the State in which you are going to set up your business. All important criteria like character and health requirements would have to be fulfilled for you to get the visa. Some these health requirements are a blood test, x-ray and so on. Police clearance forms would also have to be submitted to the authorities, justifying that you have no criminal records.
The worth and financial position of your business also has a lot to do with the clearance of the visa application. When you browse the Australian Government immigration site, you would get a rich amount of information as regards to these formalities and it would be easier for you to go ahead with the formalities.
If you are successful in getting your visa application cleared, you are at an advantage of upgrading the Australian Skilled Work visa to the State sponsored business visa. This means you can reside in Australian for at least five years and you are granted the status of a permanent resident for those five years. One can also sponsor one's family, which means you can get your family to stay with you. They have equal rights as regards to working and studying in Australia. However, you may not be entitled to other facilities like Government healthcare benefits and social security payments. Anyways, if you are doing extremely well in your business, you may not need these from the Government.
It is important to mention here that even though there has been an up gradation of your visa from the Australian Work Visa to the business visa, this is still not a permanent visa. Once the tenure of five years is completed, you would have to again apply for a fresh visa to allow you to live in the country.
