TSS 482 Visa Application — Age Requirement
On this page
Note: The Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) 482 visa was replaced by the Skills in Demand (SID) visa on 7 December 2024. This page is kept for reference only. For current requirements, see the Skills in Demand visa.
There is no age limit for the 482 Visa. This is an important fact of the 482 Visa and is also one of the major advantages of this visa.
There are age limits for most of the other Skilled visa, including the following:
- RSMS 187 – Age limit 45 years old (with very limited exceptions)
- ENS 186 – Age limit 45 years old (with very limited exceptions)
- GSM 189, 190 and 491 – Age limit 45 years old
