The immigration policy has been tightened.

The employment readiness test will be launched from 20 10 to 1.

Judging from a series of regulations on the revision of skilled migration policies issued by Australia in 2009 and last year's migration plan report, it is likely that the skilled migration policy will continue to be tightened in 2009-2010.

First of all, in terms of quotas, due to the global financial crisis, the number of skilled immigrants set at1/kloc-0.5 million in the last fiscal year was reduced by/kloc-0.4% by the federal government in March 2009, and the number of skilled immigrants in this fiscal year has been reduced to/kloc-0.8 million. Secondly, the requirements for immigrant applicants have also increased. In July 2009, the IELTS score of skilled immigrant applicants increased to 6, from 20 10 to 1, and the employment readiness test will be introduced. Some insiders believe that this will trigger relevant industries to launch corresponding training courses. Skilled immigrant applicants in technical occupations need to receive industry training and take exams, and the economic cost will be higher and higher.

In addition, from August to September, 2009, the Australian Department of Education, Employment and Labor Relations and the Australian Immigration Department jointly began to summarize and evaluate the "occupational shortage" part of Australia's traditional immigration policy, believing that the existing "occupational shortage" framework can no longer meet the needs of Australia's economic and social development, and will reform the shortcomings of the existing "occupational shortage" system.

Some possible reforms are: first, higher work experience is needed, and a diploma alone may not be enough; Secondly, in view of the fact that many people did not engage in related industries after applying for immigration with "jobs in short supply" in 2009, some corresponding regulations will be made. For example, many people immigrate with accountants, chefs, hairdressers and other professionals, resulting in a shortage of these professionals.

It can be predicted that for a large number of students who want to immigrate through studying abroad, the reform will have a great impact on the choice of majors. We'll talk about it when the specific list is released. But what is certain is that the threshold is high and the difficulty of immigration has increased. It remains to be seen whether Australia can maintain its leading position in studying and emigrating in China.

20 13 the immigration policies of many countries have changed, but the immigration boom continues to heat up. Where the immigrants are, investors are most concerned, and the application is convenient and simple, and the approval speed is fast, which quickly attracts people's attention.
