The Australian Government has made an important announcement regarding the Permanent Residence (Skilled Regional) visa in the Regional Provisional Stream. Eligible holders of the Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) (subclass 491) and Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) (subclass 494) visas no longer need to meet a minimum income requirement when applying for the Permanent Residency Subclass 191.
Easier Pathway to Permanent Residence
Subclass 191 visa is designed to offer a pathway to permanent residence for individuals who hold the Skilled Work Regional (Provisional) (subclass 491) or Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) (subclass 494) visas. This visa stream provides an opportunity for skilled workers and their families to settle permanently in Australia's regional areas.
Requirement: Providing Notices of Assessment
To qualify for the Permanent Residency Subclass 191, primary applicants must provide notices of assessment issued by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) for three income years out of the five years of their eligible visa. It is essential for primary applicants who have already lodged their applications to review and ensure that their submission includes these three notices.
The Australian Government is Simplifying the Migration System
The Australian Government is dedicated to establishing a simpler migration system that aligns with the national interest. This commitment includes providing clarity on the prospects for permanent residence to migrants who are already living and working in Australia, contributing their valuable skills to help the nation thrive.
