I want to immigrate to Australia. What are the requirements and methods?

One: Australian skilled immigrants IT&; Communication career evaluation

Since the Australian Computer Association adjusted the working time requirements for skilled immigrants of computer-related majors in June, 5438+October, 2002, computer-related skilled immigrants are no longer the mainstream of skilled immigrants, but as long as you have a long working experience, this kind of industry is easy to pass, and naturally becomes the mainstream of DIY, or most DIY projects are it. The Australian Computer Association classifies computer occupations into eight categories. They are application and analysis programmers, computer system auditors, software designers and system designers, and there are eight kinds, such as system managers, system programmers, information technology managers and other computing professionals. In fact, communication and telecommunications are also authentic 60-point occupations, which are evaluated by the Australian Computer Association.

The above eight categories are divided into several subcategories. These occupations are all 60-point occupations, and there is no difference in scores. According to the new regulations, the immigration law stipulates two situations for the work experience of applicants majoring in computer science. The first is a bachelor's degree in computer science, and you can submit an evaluation application as long as you have 4 years of work experience; The second is computer minor, that is, there are more than 20% computer-related courses in your course, such as some automation majors, electromechanical integration, applied mathematics, and many other majors. It depends on the curriculum. I once met a mechanical major, because there are 20% computer-related courses in the course, and you have successfully passed the career assessment, or you have a college degree in computer science, and you must have more than 6 years of work experience to submit a career assessment. (For those who have no computer education and are engaged in related work, please see the RPL (non-computer professional application) strategy. The most important thing of computer professional evaluation is to provide a relatively complete description of work experience and recommendation letter in the prescribed format. Generally can pass, the specific materials include:

1. Birth notarization

2. Degree notarization

3. Notarization of academic qualifications

4. Notarization of transcripts

5. Resume and work experience description

6. Letter of recommendation from the company, without notarization.

7. Computer Association Application Form (www.acs.org.au can be downloaded from the Internet, and an editable version can be found in this forum).

8. Print the application form and go to the bank to buy a draft of 350 Australian dollars.

Two: nine advantages of business migration

The new business immigration law reduces the requirements for applicants. As long as the applicant has two years' working experience and his personal assets are around 6.5438+0.5 million, the basic conditions are met.

(a) as long as there is a guarantee from the state government, there is no restriction on the age and English of the applicant. Thanks to the state government guarantee, the visa success rate has also been greatly improved. (If guaranteed by the South Australian government, under 55 years old, no English requirement).

(2) The application time is short. Take South Australia as an example. At present, it takes 65,438+0 months to submit an application, and then you can get a state government guarantee (applicants who can't speak English need to get a state government guarantee before submitting an immigration application). After submitting your visa for 2-4 months, you can arrange an interview in Hong Kong, and you will know the visa result after the interview.

(3) Getting a green card is guaranteed. After obtaining a four-year temporary resident visa, the principal applicant can not go to Australia to live, and as long as his spouse has lived in Australia for one year, he can change his green card, so there is no need to give up his domestic business.

(4) No immigration supervisor, one person applies, and the whole family benefits. Immigration applications are based on families, including spouses and unmarried children under the age of 25. Children can attend Australian public primary and secondary schools for free.

(5) The compilation of the document is more in line with the actual situation in China. For the audit of the company's finance, as long as the accountants in Australia or Hong Kong do the audit of special projects.

(6) the requirements for the applicant's materials are relatively loose, such as the source of funds. As long as it is clear, there is usually no need to provide evidence.

(7) A wide range of applicants: self-employed, corporate shareholders and senior managers, stock, futures and foreign exchange investors can apply.

(8) holders of Australian passports can freely enter and leave western countries.

(9) The service agencies of powerful immigration agencies in major cities in Australia will provide a series of follow-up services, such as airport pick-up, business introduction and school arrangements for children. , thus saving the troubles of new immigrants in life and business.

Remarks: The South Australian government has issued a new policy to support immigrant investment: the government will subsidize business immigrants who come to invest in the state, and the total subsidy will reach 45 million Australian dollars. All business skilled immigrants to South Australia can enjoy the subsidy as long as their investment projects are approved by the government, that is, "you invest one dollar and the government subsidizes one dollar." The largest project can be subsidized by 6.5438 million Australian dollars.

Second, the characteristics of Australian immigrants:

(1) Since March 2003 1, the Australian government has made major changes to its business immigration policy. The implementation of the new policy will help alleviate all kinds of disadvantages brought by the old policy. It will be more beneficial to immigrants from all countries, especially entrepreneurs from China.

The new policy mainly implements the "two-stage immigration procedure", cancels the examination method for commercial immigrants (skilled immigrants are still in the scoring system), and mainly measures applicants in two aspects, namely business background and personal assets.

After the approval of the first stage, all applicants can obtain a temporary residence visa for four years, and they can apply for a permanent residence visa after they have settled in Australia and successfully started a business for two years. The new policy highlights the role of the state government. People whose English level and age can't meet the requirements can apply for a guarantee.

(2) Main category: (state government guarantee category)

A/ immigrant business owners:

The first stage: 163 visa; the second stage: 892 visa.

C/ key migration:

Phase I: 165 visa Phase II: 893 visa.

457 visa

1. Concept: The purpose of the 457 visa is a long-term business visa for the Australian government, also known as a multiple-entry long-term work visa, in order to attract more overseas professional and technical personnel and enterprises to work in Australia and facilitate overseas enterprises and business people to conduct business activities in Australia.

Summary: Regardless of the 457 investment visa or the 457 labor visa, the Australian Immigration Bureau should consider whether the business people's own enterprises or the enterprises nominated by Australian domestic employers actually operate. If there is only one license, the "leather bag company" will not work. Therefore, the Australian Immigration Bureau welcomes SME owners, senior managers or professional technicians to conduct business activities and develop business opportunities in Australia. Therefore, the success rate of 457 investment visa is much higher than that of 457 labor visa.
