ACT의 새 노미네이션 가이드라인이 발표되었습니다. 처음으로 나온건데 순차적으로 다른 주도 나오면서 부분적으로 오픈이 될 것으로 예상해 봅니다.
자세한 건 맨 아래 원문을 참고하시구요 몇 가지 중요한 포인트만 정리해 드리겠습니다.
- 190/491 공히 지명직업군이 Critical Skills List에 있거나 아니면 482/457 홀더여야 함. 기능직종은 critical skills list에 없음.
- 491은 3개월 파트타임(주당 20시간), 190은 6개월 풀타임(주당 35시간 기준)으로 일을 한 후에 신청이 가능함.
- 매월 직업군별 쿼터가 있고 Canberra matrix 점수가 높은 순서대로 인비테이션이 나옴.
전체 가이드라인은 여기를 참고하세요.
The ACT Skilled Migration Program is now open.
As you are all aware, the migration landscape is very different in 2020-21. The Australian Government has directed the ACT to restrict nominations to Canberra residents with skills critical to supporting the ACT’s post pandemic economic recovery. An interim number of nomination places has been allocated until the Commonwealth Budget is announced on 6 October 2020.
As a result, the ACT Skilled Migration Program will now operate under a very different process. A new ACT Critical Skills List is in effect; and occupations may be capped if the monthly allocation is met.
ACT nomination - Eligibility Criteria
The following eligibility criteria is now in effect for both 491 and 190 nomination pathways:
· You must meet one of the following two criterion:
1. Your nominated occupation is on the ACT Critical Skills List;
OR
2. You are the primary holder of a subclass 457/482 visa sponsored by an ACT employer
- The 5 years ACT residence criteria has ceased.
Overseas applicants
The ACT Skilled Migration program is closed to all overseas applicants
Matrix ranking and selection
The following ranking process is now in effect for ALL Matrix submitted since 1 January 2020:
Matrix submitted before 1 July 2020:
- Canberra residents:
o All Matrix submissions will be sorted and only applicants with an occupation on the ACT Critical Skills List will be selected and, if ranked, invited to apply for ACT nomination.
o 457 / 482 visa holders who did not nominate an occupation on the ACT Critical Skills List must submit a new Matrix.
o Matrix submissions that did not nominate an occupation on the ACT Critical Skills List will not be ranked and will lapse after six months.
- Overseas applicants.
o The Canberra Matrix is closed to overseas applicants. Matrix submitted by overseas applicants will not be ranked and will automatically lapse after six months.
Matrix submitted after 19 August 2020:
- Canberra residents:
- Separate invitation rounds will be held for the 491 and 190 nomination streams.
- The highest ranked candidates in each stream will be invited to apply for ACT nomination.
- An invitation may not be issued if the occupation cap is met; even if the matrix is ranked.
Applicants currently in the processing queue.
Due the Australian Government directive, the ACT is unable to nominate applicants currently in the processing queue whose nominated occupation is NOT on the ACT Critical Skills List and/ or are overseas applicants. These applicants will be informed that their application is now void. Please provide the bank / account details for any clients with a non- critical occupation so that the service fee can be refunded.
The ACT nomination guidelines and ACT Critical Skills List are published at http://www.canberrayourfuture.
The first Matrix invitation round will be held on Thursday 20/08/2020. Matrix submitted before 1 July will be ranked if their occupation is on the ACT Critical Skills List.
