The first Skill Select round of 2020 saw the Department of Home Affairs issue 1300 skilled visa invites which the experts say, is a positive trend for visa hopefuls.
Migration experts expect the department will continue issuing at least 1000 skilled visa invites every month for the rest of the program year.
“The total target for this year is 16,652 places, out of which about 4000 will go to NZ citizens. That leaves about 12,652 seats,” Brisbane-based migration expert Suman Dua told SBS Hindi.
“5000 invites have already been sent, and about 30 per cent of the invitees have secondary applicants. We can expect at least 1000 invites every month for the remaining four months in this program year,” she added.
