First, Australia's new immigration policy welfare in 2022

1, youth allowance is officially paid.

Starting from 65438+ 10 1, all Australian citizens under the age of 24 who are studying or receiving apprenticeship training will be entitled to youth allowance. The Australian government has invested more than 50 million Australian dollars to support students' living security during their studies and apprenticeships. The eligibility criteria of youth allowance recipients will also change, and the annual income ceiling of their parents will be adjusted from A $6,543,805 to A $6,543,806. Moreover, for every additional child in the family, the upper limit will increase by1w.

2. Female hygiene products are tax-free.

The Australian federal government has reached an agreement with the states that feminine hygiene products, including sanitary napkins, tampons, postpartum sanitary napkins and leak-proof underwear, will be exempted from 10% goods and services tax at the beginning of 20021. For women, it will save a lot of money, but for local state governments, the annual tax revenue will be reduced by 30 million yuan.

3, drug welfare plan

The Australian government will add five important drugs to the Australian Drug Welfare Plan (PBS), including Rydapt for acute myeloid leukemia, Somatuline Autogel for gastrointestinal pancreatic cancer, Opdivo and Yervoy for malignant melanoma and Lynparza for ovarian cancer. These drugs can treat many tumors, even the growth of cancer cells, and a large number of patients need them every year. This benefit will protect more patients.

Second, Australia's new immigration policy is open to low-skilled immigrants without language requirements.

It was previously reported that the Australian government would add a new low-skilled immigrant, and now it is really open. This kind of immigrant visa is only open to foreigners with basic farm or reception skills. As long as you promise to live in the Northern Territory and the new district in southwest Victoria for at least three years, you can immigrate to Australia permanently. In addition, this visa will lower the skills, language and income standards of migrant workers, and even if English is not so fluent, the dream of immigrating to Australia can be realized. This is a win-win visa category, which not only enables semi-skilled workers to immigrate to Australia successfully, but also promotes the economic development of remote areas in Australia.
