After completing his studies, he continued to work as a medical researcher in Australia.<\/p><p>The Global Talent Visa Program is a streamlined visa pathway to attract the best talent (i.e. highly skilled professionals) to work and live in Australia permanently. There are only 15,000 places available under this program so only the best of the best are invited. You must submit an Expression of Interest (&#8216;EOI&#8217;) for the Department to consider whether to invite you and you must demonstrate internationally recognised record of exceptional and outstanding\u00a0achievement in one of the target sectors.\u00a0<\/p><p>Information provided by the Department was that as of July 2021, they were only assessing EOIs from October 2020. This meant the processing time for the invitation itself would generally take roughly 9 months.<\/p><p>When the client first approached us at the end of July 2021, the visa would expire in December 2021 (roughly 6 months) so they were very concerned as to whether or not they would qualify and whether they would be able to obtain an invitation before December 2021. Without an invitation, you could not lodge a valid visa application.\u00a0<\/p><p><em><strong>We got them an invitation within <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">one week<\/span>!\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dbb6bad elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"dbb6bad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Difficulties with this case<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-245573a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"245573a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>It was important for us to work expeditiously on this matter to ensure the deadlines were all met, but it was also just as important to ensure that every detail was presented so that the Department could easily see that our Client was a highly skilled individual.\u00a0<\/p><p>We assisted the Client in initiating direct contact with a Talent Officer from the region&#8217;s office.
