Top 10 source nations for Australia PR Immigrants

Over the last 20 years, India and China have emerged as the largest source nations for Australia PR immigrants. The numbers from India have reached more than 40,000 in 2017 from just 3000 in 1996. India, China, and the UK have emerged as the top 3 source nations for Australia PR immigrants, as quoted by the Guardian.

The balance of Australia PR immigration has tilted towards skilled migration from family migration. This is a result of the efforts of the successive Governments of Australia. They have made attempts to closely align immigration with the labor market needs in Australia.

The top 10 source nation for Australia PR immigrants is led by India at the # 1 rank followed by China and the UK.

The Permanent Migration Program of Australia is inclusive of the Economic migration and Family reunion immigration. It is also the chief pathway for obtaining the Australia PR. The only other pathway for immigrants to obtain PR is to be accepted by Australia on humanitarian grounds.

The PMP is based on unbiased principles regarding Religion, Gender, and Nationality. Overseas immigrants who fulfill the requirements outlined in the 1958 Migration Act can apply to immigrate to Australia.

Permanent Immigration corresponds to outcomes in any fiscal year. It does not consider whether the recipient of the Australia PR Visa actually arrived and settled in the nation.

Australia Skilled Immigration focuses on assisting the PR arrival of those immigrants who can positively contribute to Australia. This is through their employment potential, entrepreneurial spirit, qualifications, and skills.
