COVID 19 Impact on the Processing Times for Global Talent Visa

The Global Talent Independent program has been held up as the fastest way to get a permanent visa in Australia. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we are seeing the Expression of Interest processing times slowing down for some applicants. This seems to be especially the case for applicants who are applying from outside of Australia.

This may be due to the Department prioritising Global Talents who are already inside Australia.

**

**

What impacts Global Talent visa processing times?

There are a number of factors which might be contributing to current processing times. The Department's priorities for global talent visa processing are set out in Direction No. 85.

This specifies that for distinguished talent applications, they are to be considered in the following order:

**Priority 1(the following are equal in priority): **

- You have an Australian job offer paying higher than the $153,600 Fair Work High Income Threshold, or
- You are currently earning more than the $153,600 Fair Work High Income Threshold
- You can show that you are likely to attract a salary greater than the $153,600 Fair Work High Income Threshold

**Priority 2:**

- All other distinguished talent applications

The Department has indicated in its information that "likely to attract" can be shown in a number of ways, including through high grades (80% or higher) in a recent higher level qualification (Honours, Masters, PhD).

**

**

Things to know about the processing time for Global Talent Visa

Australian permanent visa processing times can often be more than 12 months, sometimes up to almost 2 years. The GTI visa has one of the fastest processing times of all Australian permanent visas. 

At the Law Council's Immigration Law Conference on 20 March 2020, representatives from the Department of Home Affairs stated that applications under the GTI program are being given priority processing. Processing times vary from 2 day to 2 months with many being decided in one to two weeks!

Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs David Coleman has also signed Ministerial Direction no 85 in November 2019. Direction no. 85 enables the Department of Home Affairs to give priority processing for the Distinguished Talent cohort (subclasses 124 and 858) to “support the responsive processing of applicants that are identified as highly desirable by Government.”

The GTI program uses the Distinguished Talent subclass 858 and subclass 124 visas, but provides a new pathway to these by invitation.

The Global Talent Visa is the UK government initiative for pooling the best skillset and exceptional talent from the global talent stream to the UK labor market.

**We can summarize from the content:**

- You have to fulfill the eligibility criteria and submit the required documents in proper order.
- The most challenging part for a Global Talent Visa applicant is getting a successful endorsement.
- A set of skills or exceptional talent can make you get the visa.

For any kind of assistance on the application process, [give us a call](tel:1800-102-0109). If you want an immigration agent to handle your application process and help you out with every nitty-gritty detail, [get in touch](https://www.kansaz.in/free-consultation) with us. We also have a bunch of immigration lawyers, well versed about immigration rules, working with us.

8. How to convert your GTV into a permanent residency?

- There is a high chance that you and your family can become permanent residents with the Global Talent visa. If you live in the UK for three years in GTV, you can also apply for the “Indefinite Leave to Remain.”
- If Immigrants have a work permit in another country, then that time doesn’t get deducted from this period of GTV.

9. What if I don’t get selected for a Global Visa?

We have another option for you. If you fail to meet the conditions for standard endorsement, do not get disheartened. You still have the opportunity to immigrate to the UK on a skilled Tier 2 worker visa. If you are looking for possible collaborations or exchange of knowledge, try for a Tier 5 visa.

**

**

10. How long does the visa application process take? And how long can I stay?

**The Global Talent Visa usually takes 4 weeks to 8 weeks to process.**

- The processing time is comparatively faster than other visa categories. You can also opt for a super-priority service and receive a decision by the end of 1 or 2 working days.
- You can stay for 1 year to 5 years. The Global Talent Visa permits you to take as many extensions as you want. 

The extensions can last between 1 year to 5 years. After completing your stay in the UK for three years, you can also apply for permanent residency.

11. What are the benefits of the Global Talent Visa?

**These are the benefits that you get for being a Global Talent Visa holder:**

- It’s not mandatory to have a job offer for getting a Global Talent Visa.
- You don’t need to pass any English test or receive a target score.
- There is no skill assessment test that you need to clear for meeting the standards.
- Your dependents get work permits because of which they can get employed while living in the country.
- The GTV allows you to change companies and your employers.
- It allows you to move to the UK with your immediate family members.
- It allows you to move from one area to another.
- Previously, it was not possible to collaborate with startups or businesses. But this visa makes it possible for you.
- The Global Talent Visa puts no restriction on the number of people migrating in a year.
- It also has way less strict rules when compared to the Tier 1 Visa for immigration.

This visa promotes immigration by giving permanent residency after 3 years of living in the country.
