Latest Updates About Skilled Work Regional (Subclass 491) Visa

Australia Skilled Work Regional (Subclass 491) Provisional Visa will begin on 16 Nov 2019 and the Immigration department developments are on full-swing to invite skilled and eligible workers to the Australian regional areas for the particular time period. This subclass 491 visa will substitute the current skilled regional ( subclass 489 )  provisional visa.

Details About New Subclass 491 Visa

The Home Affairs Department has chosen to allot 16,000 positions yearly over 500 different professions.

The subclass 491 visa will be a point-based visa program exactly like any different skilled migration programs where the best-ranking candidate whose profession is in-demand will be requested to apply for Australia PR Visa. Subclass 491 visa will be awarded for initially five years and need to agree to reside and work for three years in the Australia regional areas to obtain Australian permanent residence visa under the subclass 191 visa.

Subclass 491 visa enables you to change the Australia regional areas and professions but does not enable you to move to the state or territories. However, the candidate cannot appeal for any other skilled Australia PR program for the following three years.

Through regional areas, the immigration department of Australia indicates all areas of Australia excluding Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, and Gold Coast.

The Home Affairs Department has published its application fees for the principal applicant, dependent children, and spouse, which are AUD 4045, AUD 1010, and AUD 2025, respectively.

The immigration department of Australia has also published the onshore student graduates fee, AUD 3700, and less AUD 400 if skill evaluation is already done. Australia invites possible migrants to arrive and settle in the country on a permanent basis by appealing through various visa programs.
