Platinum Immigration commenced in 2019.

Chef Lai, one of the nicest and hardest working chefs we know, was our very first placement.

Its been a long journey but we are so happy for you and the family.

Congratulations from us to you and the very best for the future!

On 3 December 2024,​ the Australian Government announced the release of the Core Skills Occupation List (CSOL).

The new CSOL provides access to temporary skilled migration for 456 occupations.

The CSOL will apply to the Core Skills stream of the new Skills in Demand visa, which will replace the Temporary Skill Shortage (subclass 482) visa on 7 December 2024. The CSOL will also apply to the Direct Entry stream of the permanent Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186) visa.

More details on other reform taking place on 7 December 2024, including the Skills in Demand visa will be announced shortly.

Chefs, Cooks and Bakers remain on the list.

The list can be seen here:

04/07/2024

From 1 July 2024, holders of 482 and 494 visas who stop working with their sponsoring employer will have more time to find a new sponsor, apply for a different visa or arrange to depart Australia.

These visa holders will have up to:

180 days at a time, or a maximum of 365 days in total across the entire visa grant period.

During this time, visa holders can work for other employers. This includes work in occupations not listed in their most recently approved sponsorship nomination. This will ensure that visa holders can support themselves while they look for a new sponsor.

Unless exempt, a visa holder cannot work for another employer unless they have ceased work with their sponsoring employer. Visa holders must remain in their nominated occupation while working for their existing sponsor.

Sponsors must still let the department know if there is any change in situation within 28 days. This includes ceasing sponsorship or if a visa holder resigns.

Visa holders must not do any work that is inconsistent with any licence or registration needed for their nominated occupation. This includes any conditions or requirements they are subject to.

The changes apply to existing visa holders, as well as those granted a visa on or after 1 July 2024. Any periods a visa holder stopped working for their sponsor before 1 July 2024 will not count towards the new time periods outlined above.

Next time you're in Ho Chi Minh City, do yourself a favour and have a meal at Madame Lam in District 2.

Its in the 2023 Michelin guide for a very good reason. The food is sensational!

Hello again Chefs!

We previously addressed this but thought we should again.

We have been receiving messages on our Linkedin and pages to ask if we are affiliated with a company of similar name in Dubai.

So to clarify again, we are Platinum Immigration and are based in Melbourne, Australia.

We are NOT based in Dubai and we do not have an office there.

'Platinum Immigrations' is another company entirely. We do not work with them and are not affiliated with them in any way. We believe they invoice you for their work upfront. We do not.

If you have any further doubts, a very simple search for us on Google should put you at ease.

If you have had dealings with them, please know that this is not us. We are Melbourne based and have an office only in Australia.

For further information please visit our website at www.platinumimmigration.com.au

Thank you.

7 years ago I started working with Achani de Silva from Sri Lanka.

After years that have had some ups and some downs, we are absolutely delighted to congratulate her today on becoming an Australian Permanent Resident.

Upon delivering the news there were tears of joy and a lot of screaming. Its was a phone call that reinforces again why we do what we do.

Reactions like hers is what our work is all about.

Congratulations Achani. It has been a pleasure assisting you and wishing you the very best of luck for the future.
