Wow. This is great news, especially yung nasa Building and Construction since may $10,000 assistance sa mga employers na willing maghire. Sana meron ng rounds of invitation next week 🙏
This incentive is first come first served, take note. Not all will be granted.
This is how they attract and retain intending migrants and shows how stiff the competition for skilled workers is compared to the first two states of choice. This is a good year and opportunity - the first 1K plus skilled visas to be granted and landed a job with a WA employer in the building and construction sector in WA will get this scheme, is that right to say?
Well, WA has been closed to offshore (except with job offer) since 2017/2018. They’ve now opened up their doors again as they are really desperate for talents. With the potential influx of people, housing will be needed. Hence the incentive for those in building and construction to address the inevitable issue.
I cannot stress enough though that there are talks of overhauling the migration policies, points system, etc. the minister recently mentioned about raising the bar high for skilled migration. Changes will come soon, perhaps by next migration year at the earliest…so best to really get things going now before changes take place. If you know/think you meet the eligibility criteria, get things done now rather than later.
