UK joins LMT exempt countries

Under current work visa sponsorship laws, employers must test the labor market via advertising for a full 4 weeks *prior to* lodgement, unless an exemption under law applies.

International trade agreements are one such exemption, and thanks to the UK-AUS #FTA, the #UK joins the exemption list in 2023.

Standard Labour Market Testing is specific and adds to the visa process. Strategically recruiting from LMT exempt countries results in a streamlined experience with at least 4 weeks won.
