Vialto perspectives

 

Four forces redefining immigration and talent strategy in APAC

APAC is home to 60% of the world’s population, yet countries across the region are experiencing significant declines in their working-age populations. As governments respond with more targeted visa pathways based on skills, sectors, and salary bands, access to talent is becoming increasingly conditional. In this insight, we explore what these shifts mean for workforce strategy across the region. Read more

VialtoDirect: Expert global support made simple
When corporate mobility support ends, responsibility doesn’t disappear. It shifts. Tax obligations, cross-border filings, and unanswered questions can continue long after a program ends, often at the point where complexity peaks. For organizations and individuals alike, support shouldn’t stop at the policy boundary.

VialtoDirect™ provides a trusted next step—giving individuals continued access to global tax expertise, even after corporate eligibility ends. Learn more

Upcoming changes to the myMobility login process
Vialto will upgrade the myMobility authentication experience on July 31, 2026, to better protect user accounts and personal data.
Following the scheduled upgrade maintenance window, these changes will be in effect:

  • Multifactor authentication (MFA) will change. Upon the first login after the update, users will be prompted to complete a one-time setup to select their preferred MFA method. Email will no longer be an MFA option.
  • Usernames can no longer contain spaces. If a current user’s username contains one or more spaces, they will receive a separate communication with instructions on the steps to take to retain login access to myMobility.

This applies to username/password users only. Users who access myMobility through their company’s single sign-on (SSO) will not need to take any action.
If you have questions about this upcoming security enhancement:

  • Please contact your Vialto engagement manager.
  • Email us at support@gms.vialto.com
  • Use the “Support” link on the myMobility.vialto.com login page to connect with us.
