How does Skilled Worker sponsorship work?

Once licensed, employers assign a Certificate of Sponsorship to each worker they sponsor. The role must be eligible and meet the salary rules, and the worker then applies for their visa. We guide you through each step, including dependants, switching employers and overseas applications.
