Your obligations - Temporary Work (Skilled) visa (subclass 457) - flyabroad
If you are granted a subclass 457 visa, there are certain conditions which apply to you depending on whether you are the primary or a secondary visa holder. You must comply with the visa condition or conditions which apply to you, as failure to do so might result in your visa being cancelled.
From 19 November 2016, the primary visa holder must not cease to be employed with the approved sponsor for more than 60 days.
Visa conditions
Condition 8107 applies to all primary visa holders only.
Condition 8501 applies to all primary visa holders and all secondary visa holders.
Condition 8107
This condition is only relevant to a primary holder of a subclass 457 visa. You must:
- only work in your nominated occupation
- start work within 90 days of arrival in Australia if you were outside Australia when your visa was granted, or within 90 days after your visa was granted if you were already in Australia at the time
- only work for the sponsor, who nominated the position you are working in (if your sponsor is a standard business sponsor and is an Australian business, you can also work for an associated entity of the sponsor)
- not cease employment for a period of more than 60 consecutive days
- obtain any licence, registration or membership necessary to perform your occupation in Australia and comply with any provisions, and
- if your visa was granted on or after 1 December 2015 you must also:
- hold the licence, registration or membership within 90 days of arrival in Australia if your visa was granted while you were outside Australia, or within 90 days after your visa was granted if your visa was granted while you were in Australia
- not engage in work that is inconsistent with your licence, registration or membership
- notify us in writing as soon as practicable if your application for the licence, registration or membership is refused
- notify us in writing as soon as practicable if your licence, registration or membership ceases to be in force or is revoked or cancelled.
To notify us of registration, licence or membership issues you should send an email to: [email protected]
You are considered to have ceased employment when either you or your employer notifies us of the date you stopped work.
If you stop working for your sponsor, you must do one of the following within 60 days:
- find another employer to sponsor you (they will need to lodge a nomination and it must be approved before you can start working for them)
- be granted a different visa
or
- depart Australia.
If more than 60 consecutive days have passed since the date your sponsor advised us you would be ceasing employment on, you could be in breach of Condition 8107 and your visa could be cancelled.
If you abandon your employment, or are absent without leave, you could be considered to have ceased employment.
If your visa is about to expire and you want to keep working in Australia, you must apply for another subclass 457 visa.
If you want to change employers while you hold a valid 457 visa you do not need to apply for a new subclass 457 visa, however your new sponsor must lodge a new nomination and this must be approved before you commence working for the new sponsor.
Medical practitioners and general managers
Medical practitioners and general managers must work in their nominated occupation but they can work for employers other than their sponsor or an associated entity of their sponsor.
The specific occupations that this applies to are listed in Exemption from the requirement to work directly for the sponsor.
Condition 8501
This condition is relevant for all primary and secondary visa holders. You must maintain adequate arrangements for health insurance while you are in Australia.
Report changes
You must tell us if your circumstances change. This includes a new residential address, a new passport, or a pregnancy, birth or death in your family.
Children born in Australia
If your child is born in Australia while you hold a 457 visa, you must notify us in writing. Your child will then hold a subclass 457 visa.
You must provide a copy of your child’s Australian birth certificate and the personal details page of their passport. This is particularly important if you are intending to travel outside Australia after the birth of your child.
