月10日下午,移民局公布一系列澳洲移民新政,引入技术移民选择模型概念:申请人递交技术移民意向申请书(EOI),通过选择模型匹配合格的申请人,申请人获得邀请信后方可继续留在澳洲,不再为申请人派发bva(过桥签证)。此项澳洲移民新政将在2012年7月1日开始实施,第一例邀请信预计2013年1月发生。
在2010年2月8日前,持有或已申请485签证的申请人将按照原来的系统申请永久技术签证直至2012年底。此后将适用技术移民选择模型方案。

What is an EOI?
An EOI is an online expression of interest for skilled migration to Australia. It is how
prospective applicants will register their interest in applying for a skilled visa.
Prospective applicants would provide basic biographical and other information such as
occupation, details of work experience and level of English language ability on the online EO
form. Those expressing interest in independent, family sponsored and/or state/territory
sponsored skilled migration would need to submit their claims against the points test.
Prospective applicants submitting an EOI are able to indicate whether they want to be
considered for independent/family, state/territory and/or employer sponsored migration (on
either a temporary or permanent basis). A prospective applicant may register interest in on
or more visa program depending on their eligibility and personal preferences. |
