The full guide
Budget realistic time for this one — the honest end-to-end timeline from job offer to actually starting work is 3-5 months, not weeks: job advertising (1-2 weeks), a new mandatory pre-departure course (up to 6 weeks, introduced 2026), document gathering (2-3 weeks), and application processing (2-4 months). Two genuine 2026 changes worth knowing: a compulsory pre-departure course for all first-time applicants, and a new Jobsplus 'Suitability Check' that specifically evaluates whether you genuinely match the offered role and whether the employer's business is legitimate.
Processing: 1-2 weeks
