Why applications on this route get refused
Uncertified copies
The page states all copies must be certified for this permit category.
How to avoid it: Have every copied document certified before submitting your application.
Missing proof the post was advertised
The Employees category requires proof the job post was advertised (a full-page advert), which is a distinct document from the covering letter.
How to avoid it: Ask your employer to keep a copy of the full-page advertisement for your job post before you apply.
