i just consult visa 188b with an agent in HK, they also said one of the criteria is "淨賺 150 萬澳幣 ...
For 188b, I don't think the requirements ask for $1.5m profits. You only need to be holding an investment portfolio worth no less than $1.5m for a certain period of time (and that you have been an overall successful investor), and be able to provide proof that you accumulated that wealth through legal means.
I think for many people a large chunk of the "profit" would be from real estate holdings that increase in value significantly over the years, or at least that's the case for us. We did also provide the majority of our $1.5mil funding through re-mortgaging one of our properties so that satisfied the requirement. You do need to provide a funding plan at the final stage which the case official needs to approve, i.e. your source of funds must satisfy their requirements. I believe "accumulated" could also apply to salaries you have earned and saved besides the investment or business profits.
