Migration (LIN 18/036: Period, manner and evidence of labour market testing) Instrument 2018, as amended by Migration (LIN 20/156: Jobactive – Period, manner and evidence of labour market testing) Amendment Instrument 2020 dated 31 August 2020 to include additional requirement for undertaking labour market testing (LMT) for various employer sponsored visas, was compiled and registered on the Federal Register of Legislation on 30 September 2020.
Due to a transcribing error in the compilation, it was communicated that vacancies for the nominated occupations for certain skilled visas must be advertised on JobActive, in addition to one or more other advertisements. However, the error has been fixed and accordingly, sponsors who are considering nominating overseas skilled workers for employment on a Subclass 457 (Temporary Work (Skilled)) visa, Subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage) visa or Subclass 494 (Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional)) visa after 30 September 2020 are recommended to advertise the vacancies for the nominated occupations on JobActive, in addition to at least 2 other advertisements.
