Thats true, its the same issue. Australians need to trust their universities. There are many reports about discrimination in Australia when it comes to skilled jobs.

Karl, you've hit the nail on the head with regards to employers not wanting to hire international graduates, specially engineering, and then they cry that there are not enough people. Eng employers also require 2 year experience from grads which goes to show the industry is not willing to train grads, so why wouldn't there be a shortage? I finished my ENG Masters here in Australia in 2016 and still have not been able to get a job because I don't have PR, and in turn experience. This is the vicious cycle we get stuck in and something the gov needs to look into rather than spending tax payer money to go look for skilled migrants. Use the resource that is already available at hand.

Hi Karl, thanks for your informative videos. I don't understand how onshore applicants living, working, and paying taxes here contribute to housing shortage. Inflation is the underlying reason as seen in food prices and general living expenses that are off the roof. Most migrants in Australia are skilled and hard working people who make a huge contribution to this country by giving it their best, paying taxes, obeying laws, and respecting Australian values. Here in the NT businesses reduce the no. of days they are open due to worker shortages. We need people to provide services and keep the economy viable

Glad to hear that you have received a 190 invitation. Thanks for watching and supporting this channel.

There’s great delay as well for 189 Visa when are they going to grant people who lodge 189 visa last January 2023. The thing is there’s a news that immigration is prioritising offshore applicants instead of onshore applicants. Hopefully they will prioritise as well other occupations outside healthcare and teaching sector. Because we pay for the visa as well.

Skill select data shows the non priority backlog being over 30k as of September. They did clear the priority applications on a rate of about 2k per month since July. By this rate, the waiting time shows to be well above one more incremental year. Is this a realistic estimate? Is there any probability that the current backlog would clear faster and people who lodged their 190 for non priority sectors would be granted before December? If December is the expected date for an overhaul, how likely would they clear backlogs till then? Hopefully a realistic assumption is that the ones who lodged would not be impacted by any changes in policies; otherwise this would be retrospective.

Hello Karl, I submitted 189 visa application on 7th of June, on 16th of August I got an S56 more information and two and half weeks later I submitted the S56 documents they requested and since then I haven’t had anything. Meanwhile two of my friends got their grants two weeks after S56 one of them 190 and 189 respectively. We all RN. What could be the delay with mine? My agent suggested that Doha could wait till my baby is born early next year before granting all of us together, because they asked about baby’s due date in the S56. Why would they they wait for arrival of baby since I’m onshore?

Even companies are not letting international student/temp visa holders for some courses like Accounting into their Graduate programs. How can we get that experience to start our careers when we cannot even get into their graduate programs?

As of end of October 2023, backlog is 34.5k and 18.5k respectively according to Skill Select EOI Database. I wonder how is that ‘backlog cleared’ and processing times ‘reduced’.

Australia should consider adding Financial Risk occupation in their list ..I couldn't agree more that incorporating the financial risk management (Fraud/AML/Compliance) sector into the immigration policy of Australia and Western countries makes perfect sense. This move not only benefits immigrants but also enhances the economic landscape. The financial risk management field is crucial for safeguarding financial stability and driving growth. It's time to tap into the global talent pool and address skill shortages by welcoming professionals who can contribute to our financial well-being. Let's keep pushing for progressive policies!

Recruiters strictly look for PR holders and hardly give opportunities to graduates! I am not complaining, just sharing the fact. Aussie govt must change the system and provide benefits to the students if they stay in career of their academic background. If they are benefited, they will hardly go for food delivery jobs and rather focus on their field. It will be win-win for both sides and the Aussie govt could get qualified enough people ready on their own border. Hence, it would be easier for them to get better and quality candidates for PR in the long run which will benefit Australia as a whole.

The false hope on graduate is a joke and an huge hypocrisy. Education in Australia is expensive and not good compared to a lot of countries(what I learned in a advanced diploma in Australia paying $30,000 was the same level of what I learned in High school in France). A lot of people know that if there was not this hope of migrating permanently they would prefer going to Europe of North America. They really think their education is so good they have any value back to our countries ? Back to Europe any workplace would laugh at me if I tell them I graduated in Australia. What would be the purpose of studying in Australia if not migrating permanently?

Now I am about to graduate and still searching for a 2024 accounting graduate role. I told them about the graduate visa and my working rights but they just don’t care.

Why were the doors opened for offshore? Onshore people have been working in their nominated occupation and still don’t get invited, isn’t that unfair. Waiting at 95 points - 189 visa(Mechanical with more than 2 years experience) along with PY, how more uncertain can future be? Also seeing people at 65 point (offshore) getting invited, it shatters all our dreams who have lived over 3-4 years and makes us wonder why we were left out?

Hi I just wanted to Let you know that I got my 189 Visa grant after a waiting of 1 year.

Your Immi account is essential to update. You can choose to keep communicating with SA or not. No negative affects if you choose not to.

Hey, did your wife get a sponsored job? which region and what is her profile, if you can help me with this info.

Isn't a degree just par for the course? It doesn't guarantee anything anymore imho.

Yes degrees alone these days do not seem enough but a lucky few do get by

Hello Carl, Im working in NT and almost finishing my 2 years vet course of cookery, working in kitchen since I started to study,l cookery ¿Do I have realistic chances to apply 190 or 491? I current have 70 for 190, maybe I can do naati course or push myself to get 10 extra points for speaking. in NT always 65 points for whatever is in the list was enough. This year the system is close for new applications. Do you think I still have chances with 190 or regional in NT?

I'm scared also of getting sponsored through DAMA, because cook is in DAMA with income threshold exception at 64.000 aud annually. but I'm qualified chef and chef is not in DAMA.

Finally, I don't know of I can apply straight away to 186 through DAMA agreement or is gonna be another 3-4 years with no chances to move to another part in Australia

I think when they open up in the new FY you will have a chance Gabriel. Please book a time to discuss your circumstances in detail.

Not sure what is required to fast track the process
