From 1 July 2025, the minimum earnings for a 482 visa will increase to $76,527 (up from $73,150). Employers must ensure compliance with this new threshold when sponsoring or renewing a 482 visa holder in the Core Skill Stream or nominating them for permanent residence.
Where market rates are higher, employers must meet the higher rate for both new and existing visa holders performing the same work. Determining these market rates and aligning them with the Fair Work Act and internal salary policies can be complex.
Join us for a panel discussion covering:

• Determining salary and market rates – correct classification, awards, and payments
• Additional hours, rostering & annualised salaries – what’s included?
• Practical case studies – real-world impacts on employers and visa holders
• Risks of non-compliance – what happens when Australian Border Force or Fair Work investigates?
