As pre-warned in our blog and video published following the first round of dramatic visa changes in April, 1 July 2017 brought about a new wave of changes impacting on many key visa types and pathways to Australia. As a summary, these can be defined as:
- Occupational list changes which will impact Sponsored (457, ENS and GSM visas)
- Changes to Age limits for ENS, RSMS and GSM Visas
- Changes to English requirements for ENS and RSMS visas
- Adjustments to Caveats which now apply to both 186 and 457 applications
- Removal of English and Skills exemptions for those earning above $180k for both ENS and RSMS applications
- Tightening of what can and cannot be counted towards training benchmarks for both 457 and ENS applications
- Increase of countries which will require mandatory skills assessments when applying for a Subclass 457 visa
- Introduction of NZ pathway for the Subclass 189 visa
- Future changes hinted at being specifically on the 1 March 2017
