Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa (Australia)

The Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa allows Australian employers to bring in skilled workers from abroad for up to two to four years when they cannot find suitable Australians locally. It helps businesses fill temporary skill gaps across various industries. The visa requires the employer to demonstrate labor market testing and meet certain salary and training benchmarks. Workers on this visa can often bring eligible family members and may have pathways to permanent residency. Overall, it’s a way to address short-term skill shortages while supporting Australia’s workforce needs.
