A global Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) provider with operations across multiple countries approached us after facing a nomination refusal from the Department of Home Affairs. The company was seeking to establish operations in Australia and wanted to appoint their existing global executive as CEO of their Australian subsidiary.
This multifaceted case required expertise across several areas:
When the company approached AML Migration after a nomination refusal, we carried out a detailed review of their application and business plan. Several critical issues stood out.
There was little evidence of genuine business activity in Australia, raising immediate concerns. The application also flagged potential self-sponsorship risks, as the nominee was a senior executive of the parent company. Additionally, the Department noted a lack of financial records to support the viability of the Australian entity. Questions were also raised about whether the nominated role was genuine or created solely for migration purposes.
Armed with meticulously prepared documentation addressing all previous concerns, we submitted a new nomination application. Despite the inherent complexity of the case, the Department approved the nomination. They acknowledged that the business was genuine and had legitimate plans to operate in Australia. Following the successful nomination, the executive's 482 visa was granted, allowing them to branch out to Australia and begin establishing the company's operations in the country.
At AML Migration, our deep understanding of business migration pathways allows us to navigate even the most complex cases successfully. If your company is considering establishing operations in Australia, contact us early in the process to ensure your migration strategy aligns with your business objectives.
