The Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) Visa (subclass 482) is considered as the employer-
sponsored entry permit. It is basically temporary in nature. The main objective of this kind of
visa is to permit the employers for nominating the professionals. Moreover, a subclass of the
482 visas is termed as the 3 step process, which consists of the Sponsorship, Nomination and
Visa Application. In this case, the sponsorship has dealt with the Standard Business Sponsor.
In addition, nomination deals with the applicants of a subclass 482 visa. Visa application has
been applied under the relevant stream of the subclass 4821.

Agent of Queensland. Moreover, Priscilla desert has retained the small company named
Queensland Glamour Gems Pty Ltd for assisting the Tony Belsore with respect to the
temporary skills shortage (Class GK) subclass 482 visas. It has also been observed that
Priscilla assisted Tony Belsore in all three possible ways. In addition, Priscilla is becoming
