For most of us, COVID-19 pandemic has brought our life plans to a standstill. The border closures have had a significant impact on net overseas migration to Australia in 2019-20. The economic impact of the pandemic has been equally devastating.
The good news is that Australian government has confirmed that migration will be a key component of Australia’s economic recovery in the next financial year. The planning levels for new permanent residency will also stay the same as last year – at 160,000 for 2020-21.
So, what do you do ‘NOW’ if you are planning to apply for Australian Skilled Migration Visas (Example Subclass 189/190/491).
The advice is to plan early for your success.
Here are a few things that you can do now:
- Preparing a Migration Strategy or Road map is the most important first step. You can hire a competent and experienced Registered Migration Agent (MARA Agent) to process your case.
- Collect all your documents. For most of the applications, basic documents like identity, qualifications and experience documents are required.
- Apply for skill assessment – All skill assessment bodies have been accepting and processing applications – throughout the pandemic.
- Strive to get high scores in the English test for you and if applicable for your spouse as well. Sitting for a NAATI test can also increase your points and should be considered. If you have studied in Australia, you may be eligible to get extra points after completing a Professional year. Getting more work experience can increase your points, too.
- If you are eligible for Subclass 189 (PR) visa, the Australian government is still giving invitations to applicants every month.
