25.01.2022 DOHA - Migration Program Planning & Delivery https://greatmigrationstrategies.com.au//department-of-ho/

24.01.2022 The MIA have advised that States and Territories have received a small allocations of places for the skilled visa program under the 190/491 visa categories, until the Federal budget is delivered in October. Occupations are strictly limited and the allocations are to be used for occupations identified as critical to the COVID-19 economic recovery and will cover sectors such as: - critical and specialist medical services, including air ambulance and medical evacuations and del...ivery of medical supplies - skills that are necessary to maintain the supply of essential goods and services (medical technology, infrastructure, telecommunications, engineering and mining, supply chain and logistics, agricultural technology and food production.

23.01.2022 Visitor Visas Update Many members have informed the MIA that their onshore clients are being granted visitor visas with only 3 months validity regardless of the period being requested in the application. Given the nature of the pandemic in Australia and overseas and in the absence of available flights and the availability of flights at affordable and reasonable prices, this means that their clients would need to apply for a further visitor visa thus incurring another VAC. The... MIA raised this issue with the Department and we have received the following response: Visitor visa stay periods determined by the delegate consider a number of factors, including the stay period requested by the applicant, the level of financial support available, and the total period of stay in Australia since the last arrival that the visa would authorise. The Department recognises that COVID-19 has significantly impacted the ability of some temporary visa holders to depart as originally intended, and therefore onshore Visitor visas are generally being granted to accommodate further stay in Australia where necessary, provided that Visitor visa requirements are met. The requirement for exceptional circumstances to exist if the grant of the visa would authorise the applicant to stay in Australia for more than 12 consecutive months is likely to be satisfied for applicants unable to depart Australia for reasons beyond their control. The Department’s preference is that, Visitor visa holders depart Australia during the validity period of their visa, without requiring a further application to be made. Visitor visa grants for applicants in Australia are therefore being granted to the requested date in most cases, however this may not be the outcome in all cases due to individual circumstances. The Department is continuing to assess the impact of COVID-19 on temporary visa holders in Australia, and will take this into consideration for the purposes of ongoing Visitor visa decision making.

06.01.2022 MEDIA RELEASE More support for the Australian tourism and hospitality sector The Morrison Government is increasing support for Australia’s tourism and hospitality sector by providing more visa flexibility during the COVID-19 pandemic period.... The Government will remove existing work hour caps for Student Visa holders employed in the tourism and hospitality sector. A 40 hour fortnightly limit previously applied during study periods. In addition, temporary visa holders will be able to access the 408 COVID-19 Pandemic Event Visa for a period of 12 months if they work in the tourism and hospitality sector. This decision adds tourism and hospitality to the critical sectors of agriculture, food processing, health care, aged care, disability care and child care for eligibility for this visa subclass. Temporary visa holders working in, or intending to work in, tourism and hospitality will be able to apply for the 408 COVID-19 Visa up to 90 days before their existing visa expires and then remain in Australia for up to 12 additional months. The Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs said these changes build on the Morrison Government’s support for sectors that are critical to our economic recovery. Government has listened carefully to the States, Territories and industry and is introducing these changes to support critical sectors for Australia’s COVID-19 economic recovery, Minister Hawke said. Tourism and hospitality employs more than half a million Australians and these changes will allow them to supplement their existing workforce to keep their businesses running in addition to generating employment through a job multiplier effect, he said. Minister Hawke has also taken the decision, based on strong industry feedback, to include veterinarians in the Priority Skilled Migration Occupation List (PMSOL) which fills critical skills needed to support Australia’s economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. I am continuing to take feedback and advice from a range of sectors and will make further announcements on temporary visa flexibility measures and priority skills in the near future, Minister Hawke said.
