How we meet your NIV business eligibility criteria
Business Assessment
We have over 10 years of experience assisting migrating businesspeople and their families achieve permanent residency in Australia.
The Australian government have consistently included an operating business in criteria for business and innovation visa streams. PR Pathways has successfully assisted clients to source, establish and invest in complying businesses and demonstrate eligibility to start a new life in Australia.
With the current NIV, we again look forward to working with migration agents to submit high priority expressions of interest (EoI) for the Innovative Investor pathway.
Partnered with the asset management of the Queensland NIV Fund and its existing pipeline for tier one and tier two businesses in Queensland, PR Pathways targets Queensland government nominations for eligible NIV Innovative Investor candidates.
