Genuine students needn’t worry about Australia’s new migration strategy, experts say

Australia’s latest Migration Strategy, unveiled on December 11, 2023, has stirred discussions about its potential impact on prospective migrants. With eight key actions and over 25 new policy commitments, questions loom over its effect on Indian students aspiring to study in Australian universities.

Approximately 120,000 Indian students are currently enrolled in Australia as of August 2023, raising concerns about their future prospects. However, Australian High Commissioner Philip Green assured that commitments made under the Australia-India Economic Cooperation and Trade Agreement (ECTA) will be maintained. This includes eligibility for Indian graduates to stay on a Temporary Graduate Visa for varying durations based on their academic achievements.

The ECTA, effective since December 29, 2022, guarantees post-study work visas for Indian students. It outlines specific durations for visa eligibility based on the level of education completed. Experts believe that this agreement will shield Indian students from adverse effects of the new Migration Strategy.

Mamta Shekhawat, Founder of gradding.com, reassures that the strategy will not adversely impact genuine students. However, she notes increased scrutiny and stricter language requirements, emphasizing the importance of being well-prepared for the visa application process.

While the exact annual student intake remains unclear, there are speculations of a potential halving by 2025. Despite this, experts like Shekhawat believe that well-prepared students with foolproof risk assessments will likely have successful visa approvals.

Mohammed Feezam, Marketing Director at Aives Australia, a licensed immigration firm, confirms that the amended rules’ effective date is yet to be announced. Current Indian students with confirmed admissions need not worry about immediate impacts on their academic pursuits.

Experts recommend consulting registered Migration Agents, legal practitioners, or exempt individuals for immigration assistance. The Migration Act 1958 mandates registration with the Office of the Migration Agents Registration Authority (OMARA) for providing immigration assistance in Australia.

The Migration Strategy targets temporary skilled migration to address skills needs and promote worker mobility. Plans for a new Skills in Demand visa, with pathways for highly skilled workers, are underway. The strategy aims to streamline labor market testing and visa processing, providing more clarity after migrant caps are announced.

In conclusion, while the new Migration Strategy introduces changes, experts assert that genuine students and well-prepared applicants are likely to navigate the evolving landscape successfully.
