/24-7PressRelease/ - May 10, 2008 - Recommendations from an industry report are soon to be implemented in Australia through the development of teams in major cities and regions whose job it is to prevent skills shortages in Australia by quickening the visa process.
The backlog in terms of dealing with applications for the 457 or skilled migrant visas will be eradicated through the increase of resources. These visas are currently taking too long as the numbers of applications has risen as much as 17%. This comes as Chris Evans, Australian Immigration minister, announced that just 5795 skilled migrant visas had been dealt with in the required two to three months.
These recommendations have been aligned in relation to the labour needs of industry and society in general.
Australia is consistently a location of choice for those people wanting to migrate, particularly due to its employment opportunities, beautiful landscape and temperate weather.
According to Erin Ryan of http://www.globalvisas.com, "Australia really needs skilled workers." The 457 visa programme has become an essential tool for the Australian government to rid the country of skills shortages.
She adds that, "The ability of successful candidates to contribute desirable skills to the Australian workforce is a key factor in determining which applicants are granted entry." Doctors and those involved in healthcare as well as IT experts are the most desired workers in Australia.
Firms with a good record, also known as 'low risk' organisations can now also fast track their visa application. They can therefore get foreign workers in the office and down to work in the quickest possible time.
With these teams put in place the Australian government aims to reduce a considerable amount of the backlog by as soon as the end of June.
