What are the ways to immigrate to Australia?

At present, immigrants are divided into three categories: skilled immigrants, employer-sponsored immigrants and investment immigrants. There are three types of skilled immigrants: 189/ 190/489:

1, under 45 years old.

2. Occupation in the Ministry of Labor and Social Security.

3. Meet the requirements of vocational assessment institutions.

4. Have qualified language scores (IELTS 4, 6 or above). 5. The 5.EOI score should reach 60/55( 190).

6. The difference between189 and 190 is that the cities in State Insurance (190) are limited to those outside Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Newcastle and Wollongong.

489 is a four-year temporary residence visa. After living in a remote area for two years and working full-time for one year, the whole family can change to a permanent visa.

1, under 45 years old.

2. Occupation in the Ministry of Labor and Social Security.

3. Meet the requirements of vocational assessment institutions.

4. Have a language score that meets the requirements (IELTS 4 points and 6 points or above)

There are 186/ 187 types of employer-sponsored immigrants:

1, under 45 years old.

2. Meet the requirements of vocational assessment institutions (not required before July 187).

3. Have a language score that meets the requirements (IELTS 4 points and 6 points or above)

4. The difference between186 and 187 is the same as that between 189 and 190. Its working cities are limited to cities outside Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Newcastle and Wollongong.

5.2065438+Applications submitted after March 2008 need to nominate occupations on the MLTSSL list, of which 187 visa can apply for 24 occupations in remote areas.

6. At least 3 years relevant working experience. At the time of submitting the application, all the applicants were under the age of 45.

There are three types of investment immigrants:188a/188b/188c:

188A

1, under 55 years old

2. The net assets of the family shall not be less than 800,000 Australian dollars.

3. In two of the past four fiscal years, the annual turnover of the company under the applicant's name is not less than 500,000 Australian dollars; The shareholding ratio of the principal applicant and his spouse shall not be less than 30%. For listed companies, the shareholding is not less than 10%.

4.EOI score is not less than 65 points.

188B

1, at least 3 years of direct investment experience10.5 million Australian dollars.

2. The business net assets and personal net assets in the two years before the application reached 2.25 million Australian dollars.

3. Invest 6,543,800+05,000 Australian dollars in the designated bonds with a term of 4 years.

4.EOI score reached 65.

There is also a 457 visa, which has been changed to a 482 visa (TSS). Visa 457 is what we commonly call a temporary work visa, which once represented the minimum threshold for Australian immigrants. But this visa is really a disaster. You can set up a company in Australia at first, then hire yourself (self-employed immigrants) to get a 457 visa, and then change to 186 and 187 to get a green card with the employer's guarantee. However, the Immigration Bureau subsequently cancelled the self-employment and required that the 457 visa must be employed by himself before it can be converted into 186 and 187 visas.

Now the requirements of 482 are:

1. requires at least two years of work experience related to the nominated occupation, and the relevant work experience must be obtained within the last five years before submitting the application (previously 457 did not require this).

2. Pass the labor market test

3. Short-term TSS visa can only be renewed once.

4. Holders of medium-term visas are eligible to apply for permanent residence after 3 years (2 years before 457).

5. Non-discriminatory labor force test to ensure that employers will not discriminate against Australian workers.

The other is the requirement of permanent residence (green card):

1, providing English language requirements (I estimate IELTS is four sixes)

2. At least 3 years working experience (2 years in 457)

3, the age is less than 45 years old (before 457 was 50 years old)

4. The salary paid by the employer reaches the income threshold of Temporary Skilled Migrant Income Threshold (TSMIT).

On the whole, the most influential thing is that you must have 2 years of * * * experience to apply for a 482 visa. In the previous "457" era, many international students directly applied for a 457 visa after graduation, and then transferred to 186 and 187 to obtain their status. But I don't have two years of work experience after graduation, so I can't apply for a 482 visa, and I have no chance to change to a 186 or 187 visa. Therefore, it is difficult for international students to obtain identity.
