The new temporary parent visa charges, expected to open November 2017, are detailed at:

Temporary Sponsored Parent Visa

  • 3 year validity $5,000
  • 5 year validity $10,000

There are other threads on this visa within the forum

 

As of March 2018 under the current plan Employers will no longer be required to meet a Training benchmark but will rather be required to pay a 'Skilling Australians Fund levy' as part of the application:

  • Small Business (turnover<$10M)
    • Temp Visa $1,200 / applicant/year (or part year)
    • Permanent Visa $3,000 (flat rate)
  • Med/Large Business (turnover>$10M)
    • Temp Visa $1,800 / applicant/year (or part year)
    • Permanent Visa $5,000 (flat rate)

Therefore, a small business nominating a person for 18 month new TSS visa would pay a $2,400 levy
