There are 3 possible pathways for an ENS visa:
Temporary Residence Transition (TRT):
It is available to the applicants who have worked with the employer on a 457 visa and/or a 482 visa for the last two years (if applicants held or have applied for a 457 visa on or before 18 April 2017); or three years under an occupation listed on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List.
Direct Entry Stream:
It is available to applicants who do not meet the TRT stream. The applicant must have been employed for three years on a skilled level and provide a formal skills assessment in their nominated occupation at the time of the visa application. The nominated occupation must be on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List.
Agreement Stream
This stream is available to applicants where the employer has a Labour Agreement and sponsors the applicant.
