Ranjita Pillai (Immigration Lawyer) – Migration Guru
Over the past year, the landscape of immigration for international students in Australia has seen a series of challenging transformations, creating hurdles and limitations that necessitate careful navigation and expertise in the field of migration law. As a leading immigration lawyer at Migration Guru, I have observed the significant changes and the impact they have had on recent graduates striving to secure their future in this country.
One of the pivotal changes affecting international students has been the limited state sponsorship opportunities. Reduced quota a
llocations by states have constrained the pathways for many aspiring migrants, making it increasingly difficult to obtain sponsorship in specific regions.
Moreover, the Australian government’s intensified focus on health-related professions has shifted the dynamics, favoring individuals in these fields while creating a more challenging environment for students from other disciplines. This reorientation in priorities has affected the accessibility of visas for students in non-health sectors.
The reduction in the number of invitations for the Subclass 190 visa has also added to the complexity of the immigration process. This pathway, which was once a popular option for state-nominated skilled workers, now faces increased competition and limited opportunities, making it a more competitive avenue to secure.
Additionally, the recent raising of the Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold (TSMIT) has erected a barrier for small businesses seeking to sponsor recent graduates. The higher income requirement can potentially limit the ability of smaller enterprises to support international graduates through work sponsorships.
These recent changes and challenges highlight the importance of seeking guidance from experienced immigration agents and lawyers. Consulting professionals in the field can provide critical insights, ensuring that recent graduates do not miss out on any potential opportunities available amidst these constraints.
