The Government will maintain the 2021-22 Migration Program planning level at 160,000. Family and Skilled stream places will be maintained at their 2020-21 planning levels, with a continued focus on onshore visa applicants, including reducing the onshore Partner visa pipeline.

ℹ️ Program planning level 2021-22 (maintained at 160,000):

▪️ 79,600 places for the Skill stream
▪️ 77,300 places for the Family stream
▪️ 100 places for the Special Eligibility stream
▪️ 3,000 places for Child visas managed outside the program ceiling
.
This measure will ensure the Migration Program is appropriate for the current health and economic circumstances.

Sadly

""So who are the losers out of this Budget? Well, if you want to travel anywhere over the course of the next year then think again," Uhlmann said.
"This Budget assumes that the international borders will not reopen until this time next year. That's an assumption, not a government policy, but certainly something that will make the travel industry very worried indeed.""

I think it's very tough with the current situation, this Covid really hurt a lot of people not only in terms of health and financial but also it term's of people's dream Like the whole world slowed down to the max. sakit.

kaya advice sa magiging PR from 2022, ipon ng pambaon bago big move. medicare lang ang maasahan na social benefit agad. imagine the cost of childcare without the subsidy - average $100/day/child

Hi guys, just to clarify lang. tama ba understanding ko based dun sa article, affected yung mga ma PR grant by Jan 2022? What about dun sa may PR this year pero ang initial entry or big move nila is sa CY 2022 pa? Thank you in advance.
