Augmentation du seuil de revenu pour l'immigration temporaire qualifiée (TSMIT)

On the 01 July 2026, the Department of Home Affairs announced that they will be increasing the Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold, known as TSMIT, to $79,423 from the previous amount of $76,515.

Le TSMIT est le montant minimum que les travailleurs temporaires doivent recevoir lorsqu'ils détiennent l'un des visas suivants, parrainés par l'employeur :

• Le visa 482 compétences recherchées
• Le visa 186 Employer Nomination Scheme
• Le visa régional 494 parrainé par l'employeur (provisoire)

Il est important de noter que si le TSMIT définit le salaire minimum (hors pension de retraite) que les travailleurs qualifiés parrainés par l'employeur doivent recevoir, le salaire doit également être calculé en fonction du taux de salaire annuel du marché (AMSR) pour un travailleur australien équivalent.

L'impact de l'augmentation sur les sponsors

Sponsors who are already employing workers under these visas will not be affected by these changes. The nominations for those positions would have been lodged prior to the changes coming into effect on 01 July 2026.

These changes will mainly impact employers who are looking to sponsor workers and will be lodging their nominations past this date. Where the Annual Market Salary Rate (AMSR) for the nominated position would be lower than the new amount of $79,423, it may be necessary for employers to try and lodge their nominations prior to the date the changes will apply.

As most nominations will require a 28-day advertising period, known as Labour Market Testing (LMT), employers should seek to post the LMT ads on or before 01 June 2026 in order to be able to lodge nominations at the previous TSMIT. As the LMT advertisements will need to mirror the proposed salary for the position, any advertisements posted from 01 July 2026 should be in line with the new TSMIT of $79,423.

Comment nous pouvons vous aider

Sponsors who are looking to employ workers in positions that would have an AMSR less than the new TSMIT will need to act quickly to get nominations prepared and lodged before 01 July 2026. This means that it is crucial to ensure that all of the criteria have been met and all required documentation and evidence is collected and prepared as soon as possible.

It is also worth noting that nominations for these visas can be valid for a period of up to 12 months, so it may be possible to lodge nominations in advance where the AMSR rate would be lower than $79,423, with the visa applications to be lodged closer to the applicant’s current visa expiry. As such, we can assist sponsors in managing these applications now to lock in the lower salary rate prior to the changes coming into effect.
