Agreement between India and Austria

Last week India and Australia signed a mobility and migration partnership pact. This partnership opens up many opportunities for educational researchers, students, and business people.

This new scheme offers Indian graduates who have gained their education from any Australian tertiary institute on a student visa they can easily apply to pursue professional development and work in Australia. They can apply without any visa sponsorship for up to eight years.

New scheme for temporary visas

Mobility Arrangement for Talented Early-professionals Scheme (MATES), a new pilot program, will be included with an annual cap of 3000 places for 4 years.

Mobility Arrangement for Talented Early-professionals Scheme will provide a new mobility pathway for new career professionals with some knowledge in skills, and Indian graduates will be considered more to work and live for up to 2 years in Australia.

Australia promised new work visas

The reports tell that the main list of eligible educational qualifications covers engineering, renewable energy, ICT, mining, artificial intelligence, AgriTech, and FinTech. More areas will be added later.

Australia introduced overhauling its immigration system in April to increase the number of getting highly skilled workers in Australia and allow them for permanent residency.

The Australian government on high-skilled professionals

The federal Labour government said that there would be a modification in the points test to identify the correct people with the correct skill sets for economic needs in growth in Australia.

They also mentioned that visa processing would be made quicker and easier for high-skilled professionals. But on the other side, few steps would be taken for international students to retain. Candidates with Temporary visas, who had been denied applying for permanent visa opportunities, will be allowed by the end of this year.

In September 2022, Australia increased its intake of permanent migrants to 195,000 this year and pledged to raise more funds to speed up visa processing.
