A migration consultation in Sydney where a business owner seeks advice on sponsoring his overseas nephew under the Employer Nomination Scheme as a food technologist.
- Migration Adviser · turn 1
Hello, Mr Li. You said to me last time that you wanted to sponsor an overseas worker to come to Australia. Is that right?
您好，李先生。您上次跟我說過，您想擔保一名海外勞工來澳洲，對嗎？
- Mr Li · turn 2
是的。我在悉尼擁有一家食品加工廠，生產各種中式點心。我希望我的侄子能來澳洲幫我做事。
Yes. I own a food processing plant in Sydney that produces various Chinese pastries and dim sum. I hope my nephew can come to Australia to work for me.
- Migration Adviser · turn 3
I see. Both the employer and the employee need to meet certain requirements to be eligible for the Employer Nomination Scheme. As the employer, you must be actively and lawfully operating a business in Australia.
我明白了。僱主和僱員雙方都必須符合某些要求，才有資格申請僱主提名計劃（ENS）。作為僱主，您必須在澳洲積極且合法地經營業務。
- Mr Li · turn 4
這個肯定沒問題。我這個廠已經開了快十年了，生意一直都很穩定。我的產品非常受歡迎，在悉尼不少華人超市都能買到，我們每年的營業額有四百多萬澳元呢。
That's definitely not a problem. My factory has been open for nearly ten years, and business has always been very steady. My products are very popular and can be bought in many Chinese supermarkets across Sydney, and our annual turnover is over four million Australian dollars.
- Migration Adviser · turn 5
That certainly sounds like an established business. However, having a successful business is only part of the picture. The position you provide must be full-time, ongoing and available for at least three years. It must also be a highly skilled occupation that appears on the relevant Employer Nomination Scheme occupation list.
那聽起來確實是一家根基穩固的企業。不過，擁有成功的業務只是其中一部分。您提供的職位必須是全職的、長期的，並且至少能提供三年。此外，該職位還必須是列在相關僱主提名計劃職業清單上的高技能職業。
- Mr Li · turn 6
這份清單是什麼？我以前沒聽說過。我打算給我侄子的職位是食品科技人員。你可以幫我查查看這個職業是不是在清單上嗎？
What is this list? I haven't heard of it before. The position I intend to offer my nephew is food technologist. Could you check for me whether this occupation is on the list?
- Migration Adviser · turn 7
Certainly. You can only nominate an overseas worker to fill a position in an occupation that appears on the relevant list. Let me have a look… Yes, food technologist is on the list. That’s a good start.
當然可以。您只能提名海外勞工填補名列相關清單上的職業職缺。讓我查查看……有的，食品科技人員確實在清單上。這是個良好的開始。
- Mr Li · turn 8
那就太好了。這個職位肯定不是臨時安排的。我本來就想擴大生產，而且現在要找有經驗的食品科技人員也不容易。如果他工作表現好的話，我當然希望他能長期留下來。
That's wonderful. This position definitely isn't a temporary arrangement. I originally intended to expand production anyway, and finding experienced food technologists isn't easy nowadays. If he performs well at work, I would naturally hope he can stay on long-term.
- Migration Adviser · turn 9
That may help demonstrate that the position is genuine, but you’ll still need to provide supporting documents about the business and the nominated position. Depending on the applicable visa requirements, there may also be requirements concerning the salary, employment conditions and the qualifications needed for the occupation.
這可能有助於證明該職位是真實存在的，但您仍需要提供有關企業和提名職位的證明文件。根據所適用的簽證要求，可能還會對薪資、僱傭條件以及該職業所需的資格資歷有所規定。
- Mr Li · turn 10
這些應該都可以準備。那我的侄子本人需要滿足哪些條件呢？他在國內大學學的就是食品科技，畢業後至今已經有五年的相關工作經驗。在技術和資歷方面，他應該是沒問題的。
Those should all be manageable to prepare. What requirements does my nephew himself need to meet? He studied food technology at university back home, and has five years of relevant work experience since graduating. In terms of technical skills and qualifications, he should be fine.
- Migration Adviser · turn 11
That sounds promising. His qualifications and work experience will need to be assessed against the requirements that apply to the nominated occupation. He should keep his degree certificate, academic transcripts, employment references and evidence of his previous work experience.
聽起來很有希望。他的學歷和工作經驗需要根據適用於該提名職業的要求進行評估。他應該保留好學位證書、成績單、僱主推薦信以及過往工作經驗的證明。
- Mr Li · turn 12
他的畢業證書和工作證明應該都找得到。他畢業以後一直在食品行業工作，主要負責產品研發、品質控制和食品安全方面的工作。
His degree certificate and employment references should all be easy to locate. Since graduating, he has continuously worked in the food industry, mainly responsible for product development, quality control, and food safety.
- Migration Adviser · turn 13
Good. Those documents could be important. You should also be aware that he needs to meet the applicable English-language requirement. For example, under the requirements we’re discussing, he would need to achieve the required score in each of the four components of the IELTS test, rather than simply achieving the required overall band score.
很好，那些文件可能相當重要。您還應該注意，他需要符合適用的英語能力要求。例如，在我們討論的要求下，他需要在雅思（IELTS）測試的聽、說、讀、寫全部四個單項中都達到規定分數，而不僅僅是取得規定的總分。
- Mr Li · turn 14
我不太了解他的英語水平。不過雅思五分對於大學畢業的人來說應該不難吧？如果只是總分五分，他應該可以應付。
I don't know much about his English proficiency. But getting an IELTS score of 5 shouldn't be too hard for a university graduate, right? If it's just an overall score of 5, he should be able to manage.
- Migration Adviser · turn 15
Be careful there. It’s not necessarily enough to get an overall score of 5. If the requirement is 5 in each component, he needs to achieve that score separately in listening, reading, writing and speaking. If one component falls short, he may not meet the requirement even if his overall score is high enough.
這裡要多加留意。僅僅總分拿到 5 分不一定足夠。如果要求是每項 5 分，他必須在聽力、閱讀、寫作和口語各項中分別達到該分數。如果其中一項未達標，即使總分足夠高，他仍可能不符合要求。
- Mr Li · turn 16
哦，原來是這樣。那我得提醒他，不能只看總分。除了英語、學歷和工作經驗以外，還有沒有其他要求？
Oh, so that's how it works. Then I'll have to remind him not to just look at the overall score. Besides English, qualifications, and work experience, are there any other requirements?
- Migration Adviser · turn 17
Yes. The other requirements are fairly general. For example, he’ll need to provide evidence that he meets the relevant health and character requirements. He may need to undergo a health examination and provide police certificates. He’ll also need to sign the Australian Values Statement where required.
有的。其他要求相對常規。例如，他需要提供證明符合相關的健康和品行要求。他可能需要進行體檢並提供無犯罪記錄證明。在需要時，他還需要簽署《澳洲價值觀聲明》。
- Mr Li · turn 18
健康方面應該沒問題，他身體一直很好，也沒有犯罪紀錄。那是不是只要這些條件都符合，我就一定可以擔保他過來？
Health-wise shouldn't be an issue; his health has always been very good, and he has no criminal record. So does that mean as long as all these criteria are met, I'll definitely be able to sponsor him over?
- Migration Adviser · turn 19
Not necessarily. Meeting the basic criteria doesn’t guarantee that an application will be approved. The nomination and visa application still need to satisfy all the requirements in force at the time of application. Immigration rules can change, so we need to check the current criteria before anything is lodged.
不一定。符合基本標準並不能保證申請一定會獲批。提名和簽證申請仍需滿足遞交時生效的所有法規要求。移民法規可能會發生變化，因此在遞交任何申請之前，我們都需要先核實當前的最新標準。
- Mr Li · turn 20
明白了。那申請的時候，是我先遞交僱主提名，還是我侄子先申請簽證？
Understood. When applying, do I lodge the employer nomination first, or does my nephew apply for the visa first?
- Migration Adviser · turn 21
There are different stages to the process, and we need to make sure the employer nomination and the worker’s visa application are properly coordinated. Before we cross that bridge, I suggest we first check the occupation requirements and gather the documents relating to your business and your nephew’s qualifications and employment history.
整個流程分為不同的階段，我們需要確保僱主提名與勞工的簽證申請妥善銜接配合。在進行那一步之前，我建議我們先核實該職業的具體要求，並收集與您的企業以及您侄子的學歷和工作經歷相關的文件。
- Mr Li · turn 22
好的。那我回去先把公司的資料整理好，也叫我侄子把畢業證書、工作證明和英語考試的資料準備好。還有其他東西需要帶來嗎？
All right. I'll go back and organise the company documents first, and also tell my nephew to prepare his graduation certificate, employment references, and English test records. Is there anything else I need to bring along?
- Migration Adviser · turn 23
Bring as much supporting documentation as you can. For the business, that could include financial records and documents showing that the business is actively operating. For your nephew, we’ll want evidence of his qualifications and relevant employment. Once I’ve reviewed everything, I can give you a clearer picture of what still needs to be done.
請盡可能多帶一些證明文件。針對企業，這可以包括財務記錄以及顯示業務正在積極運營的文件。針對您的侄子，我們會需要他的學歷和相關就業證明。一旦我審閱了所有資料，就能更清楚地向您說明還需要辦理哪些事宜。
- Mr Li · turn 24
多謝你了。今天總算讓我有個大致的概念。聽你這麼一說，看來並沒有我想像中那麼難，不過要準備的文件還真不少。
Thank you so much. Today has finally given me a general idea. Hearing you explain it, it seems it isn't as difficult as I imagined, though there certainly is quite a lot of paperwork to prepare.
- Migration Adviser · turn 25
There is a fair bit of paperwork, but the key is to get everything in order from the beginning. That can save a lot of trouble further down the track. Bring the documents in when you’re ready, and we’ll go through them one by one.
文書工作的確不少，但關鍵是從一開始就整理得井井有條。這能為後續流程省去很多麻煩。等您準備好後把文件帶過來，我們會一項一項仔細核對。
- Mr Li · turn 26
好的，那我先回去準備。資料齊了以後，我再跟你約時間。謝謝你。
All right, I'll go back and start preparing. Once the documents are all ready, I'll make another appointment with you. Thank you.
- Migration Adviser · turn 27
You’re welcome, Mr Li. I’ll see you then.
不客氣，李先生。到時見。
