186 Visa Success for Management Consultant
5 November 2025
Introduction:
A management consultant with more than ten years of experience wanted to stay in Australia permanently. After completing her studies and working full-time for a Sydney-based organisation, she faced a deadline. Her visa was expiring and she needed to secure sponsorship before losing eligibility. Her employer was ready to help, but both faced complex compliance requirements under the Subclass 186 Direct Entry visa.
The Challenge:
The main challenge was timing. The client was holding a bridging visa while waiting for a Subclass 485 decision. She had strong experience and qualifications, but the process required precise evidence of her work history. The company had to prove the position was genuine and met the ANZSCO definition for “Management Consultant.” Any missing evidence could cause refusal or delay her transition to permanent residency.
Our Solution:
Solve Migration assessed her career background and confirmed that her duties matched the Management Consultant occupation under code 224711. The team prepared a full skills assessment application to VETASSESS using verified references from Australia and overseas. All employment records, payslips and letters were reviewed to meet assessor standards.
After receiving a positive outcome, Solve Migration prepared the Subclass 186 nomination and visa applications. Job descriptions, employment contracts and the genuine position statement were drafted to support the sponsor’s case. The nomination and visa were lodged quickly to protect the client’s lawful status.
The Result:
The skills assessment confirmed more than seven years of professional experience. The employer nomination was accepted and the visa application was lodged without interruption. The client now holds full work rights while waiting for permanent residency.
Client Quote:
“The process was clear from start to finish. I always knew what to expect.”
Solve Migration helped both the employee and sponsor stay compliant and secure their pathway under the skilled visa program.
