特大消息-澳大利亚独立技术移民从2012年7月1日起通过分从65分降为60分

背景知识：（此为原创，转载请注明出处）

2012年6月15日，澳大利亚移民部官方网站正式宣布，从2012年7月1日起通过EOI方式获得邀请的人员，申请独立技术移民（不分境内外）时（也即通常所说的绿卡或者PR），通过分从65分降低为60分。此政策的出台是为了吸引更多符合澳洲技能需求的人员获得长期居留签证，为澳大利亚的经济做贡献。但目前旧有的签证类别885与886通过分依然是65分（也即未通过EOI方式递交的境内外独立技术移民申请）

Change to the skilled migration pass mark


15 Jun 2012

The pass mark for points tested skilled migrants who complete an expression of interest (EOI) through SkillSelect will be lowered from 65 points to 60 points from July 1.

The change applies to those who complete a SkillSelect EOI for one of the new points-based skilled migration visas (subclasses 189, 190 and 489).

A Department of Immigration and Citizenship spokesman said the change to the pass mark was in the context of the series of reforms to the skilled migration program undertaken by the Australian Government since 2008.



“These reforms have ensured the skilled migration program is a responsive and demand driven program,” the spokesman said. “The cornerstone of this migration reform package will be the introduction of SkillSelect from July 1.”



SkillSelect is a new electronic service for managing the skilled migration program. Intending migrants without an employer sponsor wanting to live and work in Australia will need to complete an online EOI, then based on claims of their skills and attributes, will be allocated a score against the points test. SkillSelect will rank intending migrant’s scores against other EOIs.



The highest ranking migrants across a broad range of occupations may be invited to apply for a skilled visa.



“Delivery of a balanced migration program requires careful management,” the spokesman said. “SkillSelect will provide greater control over who can apply for a skilled visa and when they can apply.”



The previous pass mark was appropriate in the context of the skilled migration reforms, with a greater emphasis on employer-sponsored skilled migration and managing a growing pipeline of unsponsored skilled migration applications.



The revised pass mark will encourage a broader range of people with the skills and attributes needed in Australia to register their interest in migration.

Hello I am just wondering if a master graduate student in Accounting can apply for the subclass 189. I am graduating at the end of this year and should be able to obtain 60 marks by that time. But just not quite sure what's the difference between 885 and 189 and which one I should apply. I will be very appreciated for your help. Sorry I couldn't type in Chinese now, you can answer my question in Chinese. Thanks very much :)

189 visa is the one which would replace the old 885 visa system, in this case, 60 points is the pass mark, however, in order to secure a place, you may need to obtain as much points as you can. Current 885 pass mark is 65 points, so in this case, if you could obtain 65 points upon your graduation before 1 Jan 2013, this one would be the one most suitable for you as you do not need to apply EOI first, hope it help.

Applicants may have to demonstrate sufficient funds to cover these expenses for the first one or two years in Australia, depending on their assessment level.
See: Student Visa Assessment Levels

This helps to ensure students are better able to make the most of their studies and have a safe and enjoyable experience in Australia. Funds should be sufficient to contribute to the cost of travel, tuition, school costs of any dependents, and living costs.

您好，我想请问一下，移民局官网上说现在的独立技术移民签证189从今年的7月1号开始只要60分就行而不是65，但是要先递交一个EOI，请问申请ＥＯＩ的时候是不是只需要提供职业评估和雅思４个６的成绩单？如果现在达到了６０分，可不可以递交ＥＯＩ,然后等着移民局的邀请？据说只有得分最高的申请者才有可能被优先处理并得到移民局的邀请，那么，这个打分是以什么样的标准呢？为了防止有什么意外，在递交了EOI之后可不可以同时进行485签证的申请？

485申请目前如果如何条件的，仍旧开放申请。EOI政策时，通过分为60，这是最低标准，你所说的2个文件一般是需要的，移民部除了要求此2条件外，还会有更细化的要求。有需要，可以优惠帮你做了
