Labor wants them all to be permanent residents with eventual citizenship. Pre-pandemic levels of immigration were excessive.

If overseas-trained nurses could work in Australia, then you'd have solved your shortage issue ages back! Nope, overseas-trained nurses and doctors however, qualified or trained in some of the best medical colleges aren't permitted to ply their profession here (unless they are from Canada or the US or the UK I think); it's because your system doesn't allow it; and of course for obvious reasons which is pretty much respected (else you'd never know what you'd get for such a sensitive sector); that's why you have qualified nurses from South Asia, spending their life's savings to undertake their nursing courses all over again here in Australia in a bid for permanent residency and to of course become part of the workforce. It's a huge sacrifice. In any case, letting in such a number (upwards of 600K) in just a year is preposterous! I am a doctoral student here; way past your so-called "productive or economic threshold" age, and I hold no interest in continuing here after my studies; I just want to give my kids a nice experience here - enjoying Australia, getting to experience Western schooling for at least 3-4 years, get me that PhD - a lifelong aspiration; and then it's back home; but with all these fallouts (the rising cost of living and the rentals), it's making our experience here a tad unsavory. But it will be interesting to see how things pan out as not everyone seems to be aware that international students (at least the ones who attend proper unis here) pay in a year what an average Australian would ever spend in their entire educational life; they and largely their spouses form an integral part of the workforce here, with huge tax contribution, a substantial part of which amongst others go into funding Aussie retirees! International students who do their postgraduate degrees in universities here including myself often wonder where are the actual Aussie students?

Now AAT cases will start increasing and getting clogged in the system where all these temporary migrants will get another 2 years of time to live by the time Tribunal Judge gives them a date to hear their appeal 😂😂😂😂!!!! Problem is not happened with labour or liberal government , it happened with bureaucracy.

I bring 100,000000 families too aussie and ask for government benifit

I am very interested to migrate in your lovely country

Labor is making the Rental Crisis worse. Labor is causing homeless rates too skyrocket.

The LNP made the rental crisis and the housing bubble much worse during its disastrous nine year tenure from 2013 to 2022. They were the most incompetent government since federation.

Net zero immigration in Australia

Just one question ! Since those students generate income to the country and bring in hard currency …. Why dont u solve the real problem by building more houses . A 100 condominiums in Melbourn with 1000 unites each will solve all the problem …. Easy

So I had done some research about this.. apparently one big issue is that most of the land in Australia is owned by the ultra rich. So there is very less land available for suburban construction. I may be wrong with my explanation, but it's something like that! I'm in Australia now since more than a year and I've been worried about the housing crisis ever since.

And who is going to pay for the water and the sewerage? Students don't generate as much income as is claimed. If they work in Australia, the money that they spend on fees and living expenses is NOT export income. They compete with Australian students for the part-time jobs.

I have no interest in being taxed to pay for infrastructure for any more foreigners. They come to use hundreds of millions of dollars worth of infrastructure and public services that they haven't paid for and will never pay for.

I plan to start my studies in Australia, now I'm worried about migration.

Don't study here in Australia 🇦🇺. Please go to some other country. Let only our Aussie kids study here. We don't want anyone in this country. We will study in big university by paying all the fees and we will only pay all the taxes. We don't want you here. Please go to other countries.

Bill Heffernan wood royal commision ?????????? Why is this not front page news why is this not public knowlege priorties australia this is a BIG problem

And why no one addressed the education point, why do we need to import talent?? Simple because Aussies focus on being a plumber, electrician, builder or any other trades leaving to immigrants to run the country

There are too many Nepalese and india right now. The majority of them are working, not studying here

Obviously because of the mind-blowing educational cost. I came in 2022 and my Master of Social Work costs 65k for 2 years. Whereas my direct juniors have to pay 75k. Its preposterous, especially since the Indian rupee is significantly of lesser value compared to AUD. I work 7 days a week and still is struggling to pay rent, bills, fees and survive. So before jumping into a conclusion like that, it is the high fees imposed on us by the Aussie unis that force us to indulge in labour, which unfortunately makes it harder for Aussies. The situation sucks for both us and Aussies. But it is what it is. Good day.
