Skilled Recognition Visa Subclass 476

The Skilled Recognition Visa Subclass 476 is a visa mainly targeted toward permitting engineering pass-outs to work and live in Australia for one year and six months. The graduate applying for the visa must have finished their studies at a recognized university within two years. The candidate will not qualify if they already have other visas like subclass 485. Extending your visa to continue to reside in the country is the only option, as you cannot reapply for the same visa.
