Employer Nomination Scheme Visa (Subclass 186)

The Employer Nomination Scheme Visa (Subclass 186) is a permanent residence pathway for eligible skilled workers who are nominated by an approved employer. A strong application usually depends on a genuine nominated role, well-prepared employer documents, and worker records that clearly support the selected 186 stream.

At Seek Visa Solutions, we help employers and workers prepare 186 applications with clearer structure and better coordination across the nomination and visa stages. From stream review and role evidence to worker eligibility and dependant planning, our support focuses on compliance, timing, and stronger preparation.

Subclass 186 Support for Employers and Skilled Workers

The 186 pathway can be strategically important because it leads to permanent residence and usually requires careful alignment between the employer nomination and worker eligibility position. A detailed pre-lodgement review can help reduce avoidable issues and improve presentation.

Common Documents and Evidence

A well-prepared 186 file usually includes employer, nomination, and worker documents presented in a consistent and well-organised format.

Employer sponsorship and nomination records, business documents, and evidence the nominated role is genuine.
Employment contract, salary records, duties, and any records relevant to the selected 186 stream.
Worker identity documents, qualifications, work history, and skills or licensing evidence where required.
English, health, character, and family-related documents relevant to the permanent residence application.

What We Review Before Lodgement

A careful pre-lodgement review helps identify role, stream, and evidence issues before they affect the permanent visa case.

Whether the nominated role and the selected 186 stream are aligned with the worker history and employer circumstances.
Whether salary, duties, and business evidence support the permanent residence nomination properly.
Whether the worker records, English evidence, and any stream-specific documents are complete.
Whether the employer and worker material remain consistent from nomination through to visa lodgement.
