482 is probably not the most common visa on this forum, but just wondering if anyone has applied a fresh 482 TSS MLTSSL visa and obtained one after the March 2018 changes.

I've lodged one today and am supposed to be a low risk applicant (according to the agent -Fragomen) based on employer and profile etc, but what are the realistic timelines?

Appreciate any answers. The DHA site mentions that no data is available because of low volumes.

Hi Everyone,

My employee has filed my nomination for TSS 482 on the 3rd of August. The department request further documentation after 4 months i.e. 3 Dec 2020. Since then we have not heard from them. My current visa expires on Feb 21. We tried contacting the DOHA but no response. Has anyone lately received a nomination approval. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi @NB , @imjordanxd , @mustafa01, others,
With no update from NSW 190 invitation rounds this year(waiting since Nov 2020 with 95 points for 261313), I have decided to go for the renewal of my TSS 482 (261314 Software Tester) visa which will expire in Apr, 2021. Wanted to understand what would happen in my case, as we wont be able to complete the medicals if asked, as my wife is currently expecting. Will we be provided with a bridging visa till we submit the credentials of our baby, or the renewal of 482 visa are straightforward?

Also, I am exploring other potential employer for my 482 sponsorship, will it follow a similar path in terms of time duration and/or bridging visa for us? Any directions on this will be very helpful.

482 visas are generally handled by agents appointed by the sponsoring company
You will be better off talking to the agent as he is the one who will take the decisions on whether you can proceed without the medicals or not
Cheers
