Australia has proposed an overhaul to its immigration system to expedite bringing in highly skilled workers into the country and make the path to permanent residency smoother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Australia<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Proposed changes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The federal Labor government said the current system will be modified to identify people with the correct skill sets the Australian economy needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, the points test is used to choose people with the correct skill sets which will be amended so that candidates who are better for the Australian economy are included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Issues with current system<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur migration system \u2026 is broken. It is failing our businesses, it is failing migrants themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And most importantly, it is failing Australians. That cannot continue,\u201d Home Affairs Minister Clare O\u2019Neil said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The country has been competing with countries, like Canada and Germany, to lure more skilled migrants, with the surge in demand exacerbated by an aging population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking steps to keep highly skilled intl students<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The government said the visa process for high-skilled professionals will be made quicker and easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steps will also be taken to retain international students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Temporary skilled visa holders, who had been denied the opportunity to apply for permanent residency, will be able to do so by the end of this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it will not add to Australia\u2019s annual intake of permanent migrants, O\u2019Neil said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raising cap of permanent migrants<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In September, Australia raised its intake of permanent migrants to 195,000 this financial year, up by 35,000 to help businesses battling widespread staff shortages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also pledged more staff and funds to speed up visa processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raising wage threshold<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From July 1, the government said it would raise <\/a>the migrant wage threshold of temporary skilled workers from A$53,900, stuck at the same level since 2013, to A$70,000 ($46,250).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Around 90% of all full-time jobs in Australia are now paid more than the current threshold, leading to the exploitation of migrant workers, the government said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
