There are two types of TSMIT concessions available for NSW nomination under Pathway 1 of the Skilled Work Regional visa (subclass 491). These concessions are designed to support businesses in regional NSW while ensuring that workers receive fair compensation and that market salary rates and relevant industrial awards are maintained.
โถType 1 Concession:
Businesses must demonstrate that the applicantโs annual monetary earnings are at least 90% of the TSMIT. Additionally, the total earnings must meet the requirements of any applicable industrial awards and be in line with the Annual Market Salary Rate (AMSR) expectations for the specific occupation and location.
โถType 2 Concession:
Businesses must demonstrate that the applicantโs monetary earnings are at least 90% of the TSMIT. Non-monetary earnings, such as food and board, can make up the difference but must not exceed 10% of the TSMIT, with the total remuneration package being at least equal to the TSMIT.
There are specific rules regarding what constitutes eligible non-monetary earnings:
โThe benefits must directly relate to the actual living costs of the employee and would genuinely have been paid by the employee if the employer had not covered them.
โThe benefit must be measurable, documented, and verifiable.
โThe benefit must be guaranteed in the employment contract and must be consistent with the benefits provided to other similar employees.
โNon-guaranteed payments such as overtime, bonuses, and commissions are excluded from eligible non-monetary benefits.
For both concession types, the total earnings must also meet the award requirements and AMSR expectations for the specific occupation and location.

โ Criteria for Contributory Aged Parent visa- The main applicant of this visa must be over 66 years of age, however if they have a partner aged younger than 66, they can be included as a secondary applicant.

Your relationship has ended, what happens now?
If youโre the holder of a Provisional Partner Visa or you are waiting for it to be granted, it can become a nightmare if your relationship has broken down, especially if your ex-partner is threatening to have your Partner Visa cancelled, or the application withdrawn.
It doesnโt matter whether the relationship that has ended is a de-facto relationship or a marriage, the advice is the same, and even if you have not divorced, the relationship will be deemed to be ended by the DHA, if you and your partner have parted ways permanently.
โ
It is essential that you know your rights!
Your visa cannot be cancelled by your ex-partner! A case officer, or so-called "Delegate" of the Minister for Immigration, is the only person who has the authority to revoke or refuse your visa. Your ex-partner is unable to terminate your visa on their own.
You will eventually receive a letter (often via email) from a Delegate asking you to comment on the information it has received that your relationship has ended if your ex-partner notifies the Department of Home Affairs (DHA) of the breakup.
The letter will allow you 28 days to respond to the allegations that your relationship has ended. This means that you have at least 4 weeks to consider your options and draft a response to the Department.
If your relationship has broken down permanently and you do not have children together, and there are no allegations of domestic violence, the DHA will eventually refuse your Subclass 820 Provisional Partner Visa, cancel your Provisional Partner Visa (either Subclass 820 or 309), or refuse your Permanent Partner visa, if you have applied for the second stage.
There are cases in which you may still be granted your Provisional or Permanent Partner Visa after your relationship has ended. different Australian visa before you respond to the letter.
