Supporting Employers Through Compliance and Sponsorship Management

Australia’s employer-sponsored visa system offers businesses valuable access to skilled overseas talent — but it also places significant legal obligations on employers.

At BridgeBlue Global Migration, we provide end-to-end legal assistance to businesses seeking to become, maintain, or renew Standard Business Sponsors, while ensuring full compliance with the Migration Regulations.

Sponsorship Services

• Preparing and lodging Standard Business Sponsorship (SBS) applications
• Renewing existing sponsorships and monitoring validity periods
• Advising on Labour Market Testing (LMT) requirements
• Drafting genuine position evidence and employment contracts
• Handling Nomination and Visa Applications (Subclass 482, 186, 494)

Compliance and Monitoring

The Department of Home Affairs routinely monitors sponsors to ensure compliance. Breaches can lead to warnings, sanctions, or cancellation of sponsorship rights.

Our lawyers provide proactive legal audits and defence in cases involving:

• Underpayment or record-keeping breaches
• False or misleading information
• Unsatisfactory working conditions or role substitution
• Sponsorship bar or cancellation notices

We prepare responses to Notices of Intention to Take Action (NOITAs) and represent employers in Departmental investigations and appeals.

Labour Agreements and Strategic Advice

For industries with unique workforce needs, we negotiate Labour Agreements and advise on pathways for regional and occupation-specific sponsorship.

Our corporate clients include technology firms, healthcare providers, education institutions, and trade employers seeking long-term workforce stability.
