Are you considering migrating to Australia or sponsoring skilled workers? The Australian migration landscape is evolving rapidly, with significant legislative updates and new requirements coming into effect in 2025.

Key Updates You Need to Know:

• Visa Repeals & Technical Amendments: Outdated visa subclasses have been repealed, and technical updates have been made to streamline the migration process. If you lodged your application before 22 March 2025, your application is not affected.

• Increased Skilled Visa Income Thresholds: From 1 July 2025, the minimum income thresholds for skilled visas (including subclass 482, 186, 494, and 187) will rise by 4.6%. New applications must meet these higher thresholds.

• Workplace Rights Guide: The Department of Home Affairs has released a new guide to help migrants understand their workplace rights and protections in Australia. We ensure all our clients are informed and protected.
