The Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme Visa (Subclass 187), commonly referred to as the RSMS Visa, is a permanent visa for skilled workers who wish to work and live in regional Australia. It offers a nominee the opportunity to get full residency when an approved employer in regional Australia nominates them for an occupation.
The RSMS Visa comes in three application streams: Direct Entry; Temporary Residence Transition; and Agreement. Each stream has some requirements, like a skills assessment from an authority, relevant occupational work experience, and language proficiency of the person in English; also, one has to meet the standards of health and character set by the Australian government.
This Visa has all the attributes of a policy that gives a person various rights in Australia, and these include the right to live and work permanently in Australia, access to Medicare, and the ability to sponsor relatives for permanent residency. With the RSMS Visa, there is a great opportunity for the skilled worker to belong to regional Australia, while holding the stability and opportunity that come with being a holder of permanent residency.
