Employment Offer = speed up PR visa
My husband received an offer for employment (A contract). If we attach this to our PR visa, will it have any impact on the processing times or will it be a waste of time?

I have had an offer from queensland health and they assured me that it does, infact they said they have some influence but im not sure of that part.

Not sure about this. If you are applying for a 457 then yes, it's speedy. Both my husband and I had job offers and it did nothing to speed up our application.

Re: Employment Offer = speed up PR visa
Employer sponsored migration does get priority. But a job offer does not usually make a difference for skilled independent processing time, unless things have changed recently.
