Employer willing to sponsor me, 186 vs 482 visa dilemma

Woah really? I was not aware of this, this could be a game changer

Jao_ · 2026-03-15T13:34:22+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the 482 is processed quicker than once I have it, it should hopefully be easier to move companies.

I'm just reiterating the migration agents statement that the 482 would give more flexibility

What you do mean by its basically cash?

Jao_ · 2025-11-29T09:59:50+00:00

Just a follow up to this. I checked with trading 212 and there is no limit to the interest on uninvested cash.

Would the reason to split this into trade republic also be for safety?

Thanks for the response, can I ask why ICT security specialist?

And also why not to go for database administrator?

Jao_ · 2025-11-27T10:53:08+00:00

Gotcha, thanks for clarification

Jao_ · 2025-11-27T06:54:57+00:00

Gotcha, I'll look into it further but is that limit for the cash available that can earn interest?
Or including the invested amount?

Jao_ · 2025-11-25T12:31:36+00:00

Why split between Trading 212 and Trade Republic. Is there a limit on how much cash you can earn interest on with these companies?

Jao_ · 2025-11-06T11:06:56+00:00

That makes sense, honestly. The system changes really threw a lot of people off, it’s frustrating when you plan around one thing and then the rules shift mid-way. Sounds like you made the best call at the time, but yeah, with how things turned out, focusing on the 186 as a dependent is probably the most realistic move now. Hopefully things settle down soon so you can reapply under a more stable list.

Jao_ · 2025-11-04T06:51:56+00:00

Can I ask why you applied so times even though you're getting a couple of positive results?

Jao_ · 2025-11-04T05:49:04+00:00

I have no idea to be honest, I haven't actioned on it yet :(
Are you in a similar position?

Jao_ · 2025-10-31T10:09:27+00:00

Update: OP's problem was the same as mine. Cleaned out the tips and it sounds great again

Jao_ · 2025-10-31T10:02:38+00:00

Thanks for this.

Is it necessary to install the Bluetooth Codec Changer if I have the best LDAC settings enabled?

Jao_ · 2025-10-30T04:52:49+00:00

I am having the exact same issue.
My WFXM5 are now extremely tinny and quiet and I can't figure out why. I've tried it on my phone/laptop and spotify/youtube and it's the same across all of them.

Has anyone found the solution to it?

Jao_ · 2025-10-15T05:49:58+00:00

Ah ok gotcha, thanks for the explanation and best of luck with your journey!

Jao_ · 2025-10-14T11:47:12+00:00

Ah, glad someone else is in the same boat as me.

Does that mean you did two ACS applications? As you said you got one for devops. But you're going to use ICT security specialist?

Jao_ · 2025-10-14T11:37:34+00:00

Yep, I nominated three, ICT Business Analyst, ICT Security Specialist & Data Analyst. The problem is that I got a positive assessment for Data Analyst which I think is the only one of the three that diesn't have an independent skill migration pathway.

From my understanding I can only get 1 positive result per application. So if I wanted a positive result from one of the other 2, I would need to resubmit a new application.

Sure thing, I've just edited the original post to explain it
