Can I immigrate to Australia for an MBA?

In 2005-06, the number of skilled immigrants increased by 20,000, bringing the number of skilled immigrants to 97,500, the highest in Australia's history. It shows that the Australian government welcomes qualified skilled immigrants to promote economic prosperity. In order to let people who want to immigrate to Australia know more about Australia's skilled immigration policy, we are here to make a summary of Australia's skilled immigration policy.

At present, China people can apply for Australian skilled immigrants from the following categories:

136 visa: ordinary skilled immigrants (technical independence);

Visa 137: Ordinary skilled immigrants nominated by the country/region;

Visa 138: skilled-Australian guarantee;

Visa 139: sponsorship in the field of technical design;

134 visa: skill matching;

495 visa: technology-independent area (required);

880 visa: general skilled immigrants, international students;

Visa 88 1: technical category-Australia sponsors overseas students.

Students);

882 visa: technical design field sponsored by overseas students.

Overseas student visa.

To apply for skilled migration, you must first pass the vocational and technical assessment. Occupation assessment is conducted by relevant institutions designated by the government to determine the applicant's skill score, ranging from 40 to 60. The Department of Immigration has formulated a list of skilled occupations (SOL) for the professionals currently needed in Australia. Applicants must choose a project according to the listed occupations and pass the evaluation. People who are not employed in Sol cannot apply for immigration.

In addition, the Immigration Department will regularly check Australia's skilled labor market, and draw up a list of required immigrant occupations (MODL) accordingly. Those who meet the MODL skilled occupations will get an additional 65,438+05 points, and those who are employed by companies of appropriate size will get an additional 5 points. Therefore, people who passed the MODL career assessment basically reached 75 points.

Since the academic qualifications of Australian universities are recognized by the government, most graduates have no relevant work experience and can apply for evaluation directly to relevant institutions (except individual evaluation institutions). However, the immigration regulations require overseas students to apply for immigration within six months after completing their studies to avoid work experience. Therefore, international students must make a correct technical evaluation as soon as possible after graduation. If mistakes delay time, they cannot apply for immigration in time.

Those who have completed a college or university degree abroad can also apply for technical evaluation from relevant evaluation institutions, and they can also be approved as long as they think their academic qualifications are equivalent to those of Australian colleges and universities. However, the immigration regulations require overseas applicants to have relevant work experience before applying for immigration (60 points need 65,438+02 months in the past 65,438+08 months, and 50 points and 40 points need two years in the past three years).

Basic conditions:

Age: you must be under 45 when applying;

English: General skilled immigrants require four 5 points in IELTS (general category). Some professions, such as engineers,

Require a high level of English (IELTS general or academic "46"). If the IELTS score is lower than four fives, but the average score is 4.5, you can only apply for a "skilled immigrant" or "skill matching" visa;

Occupation: Your occupation must be in the Australian Occupation List (SOL); Recent work experience: If the applicant's skill occupation score is 60, the applicant must have at least 12 months paid work experience within 18 months before submitting the application; If the applicant's skill occupation score is 40 or 50, the applicant must have at least 24 months paid work experience in the 36 months before submitting the application; If the applicant has relatives living in designated areas in Australia, the recent work experience can be shortened to half of the above-mentioned normal demand period (that is, 6 months or 12 months respectively);

If the applicant has been studying in Australia full-time for more than two years and submits an immigration application within six months after completing the corresponding Australian education (diploma or above), the requirement of recent work experience can be waived.

Audit standard:

The following are the admission and filing scores of all kinds of skilled immigrants. Only after the scores of each type of applicants reach or exceed the admission scores can the application be successful. If the score is between the admission line and the filing line, apply for two years. During this period, if the admission score is lowered and the applicant has to reach the new admission score, he will continue to apply.

The requirements of category 137 are basically the same, and are automatically nominated by the state government in the technical matching list (currently including Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania).

Categories 139, 863 and 882 need to pass the basic requirements for skilled immigrants (those with 60 skills only need 6 months' work experience, those with 40 and 50 skills only need 12 months' work experience, those with 40 and 50 skills only need IELTS 4.5, and they need to pay English fees before applying for a visa), but they must meet the guarantee requirements before applying for 65438.

At present, the application for approval of domestic graduates is the fastest, with an average of 6 months; Followed by overseas low-risk countries, it takes 9 to 12 months; Secondly, overseas high-risk countries (including China) need 12 to 15 months. It should be noted that students and their families who have received Australian aid and are funded by the Australian government or the Ministry of National Defense are not allowed to apply for visas 497, 880, 88 1 or 882.

Career evaluation

1, why do you need a career assessment?

Australian skilled immigrant applicants need to assess their professional qualifications in designated assessment agencies. Applicants must choose their declared occupation in the list of technical occupations in Australia, and then apply to the relevant assessment agencies in Australia for assessment. This qualification assessment is an important part of the immigration process. Once the assessment fails, or you choose the wrong occupation because you don't know the immigration laws and regulations, whether the assessment passes or not, the immigration application may eventually fail for various reasons.

The assessment of applicants' professional qualifications is to ensure that their qualifications can meet the minimum requirements of Australian occupations. The evaluation process varies from occupation to occupation. The evaluation is completed by professional organizations in Australia, which may be professional associations, specialized evaluation institutions or government agencies.

The evaluation agency will compare and evaluate your technical qualification level according to the requirements of Australia. All industries in Australia have strict professional requirements, which are different from those in China. You must have a deep understanding of this, and be particularly familiar with the comparison of education systems between Australia and China, so that you can correctly choose the most suitable declared occupation according to the applicant's professional background, get an evaluation, and even successfully pass the immigration application.

After deciding to apply for a job, you must contact the relevant assessment agencies and submit the required forms, materials and assessment fees. The cycle is about 2 to 4 months. Because the Australian Technical Occupation Table covers all walks of life, and each evaluation institution has its own unique professional background requirements for the evaluated occupations, some require absolute correspondence between majors and work experience, some require special academic qualifications or work experience, and some require specific academic qualifications and curriculum configuration. Hasty or blind application for evaluation is likely to lead to a failed result, and it will be too late to regret it. Therefore, the Australian Immigration Bureau also suggests that applicants can hire an Australian registered immigration agent to ensure the smooth application.

2. List of skilled immigrants' occupations

Occupation list is the occupation name, code, evaluation agency and score listed by Australian Immigration Bureau according to Australian occupation standards. Occupations are divided into four categories:

1) management personnel

2) Professionals

3) Assist professionals

4) Technical personnel and related personnel

Only those occupations listed on the list can apply for immigration. The Australian government will constantly adjust and update this list according to the needs and changes of the Australian talent market. Only occupations that meet the list of skilled occupations published by the Ministry of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs of Ma Di can apply for skilled migration. For high-demand occupations, applicants can enjoy extra points. MODL is Australia's list of high-demand occupations or (list of talents in short supply), which is based on the list of occupations (SOL) and is adjusted by the Australian Immigration Department every year according to the labor market (once every six months, but with little change). Applicants who have passed the vocational and technical certification and are employed in MODL enjoy 65,438+05 points, and if they are nominated by the employer or have job opportunities at the same time, they enjoy 20 points. Applicants who apply for MODL jobs through immigration scores have priority in the process of dealing with skilled immigrants.

3. Evaluation organization

There are as many as 28 vocational evaluation institutions, and the evaluation procedures and trial time of each institution are different. According to the immigration laws, regulations and policies since July, 2002 1, the applicant's career orientation and skills assessment are important links.
