Don’t be discouraged by the increased competition and reduced spots in the South Australian State Nomination Program. Instead, seize the opportunity to attend our free skilled migration workshops in October 2023, where you can gain valuable insights into the program and its requirements. Despite the challenges, the state government’s commitment to vital sectors and your well-prepared application can still make your dream of migrating to South Australia a reality. Migration Solutions is here to provide expert guidance on this journey.
Why are these workshops so vital, if you are considering applying for the South Australian State Nomination Program?
In short, there is increased competition and a reduced number of spots available. The South Australian state government has reduced the number of spots available for skilled migrants in the 2023-24 program year to 2,300, down from 8,800 in the previous year. Understandably, this reduction may raise concerns for potential candidates. However, it’s essential to understand why you should still consider submitting your Expression of Interest (EOI) and Registration of Interest (ROI) through the South Australian State Nomination Program, despite the heightened competition. This new process, introduced to the South Australian State Nomination Program this year, has raised many questions that candidates have been asking us at the free workshops. They have also been asking about their current visas and the impact of visa status, and qualification and work experience requirements.
Despite the reduced allocation, the state government is unwavering in its commitment to supporting South Australia’s priority sectors through the program. The government’s emphasis on attracting skilled migrants in critical fields such as Health and Defence underscores their dedication to the state’s well-being and security. If you possess skills and qualifications in these high-demand sectors, your chances of receiving a nomination through the program remain promising. In our weekly workshops so far, the main occupation represented has been IT professionals.
For the month of October 2023, we are hosting the free skilled migration workshops every Wednesday at 10 am. These workshops will take place in our Adelaide office. If you are eager to learn more about the South Australian State Nomination Program and the skilled migration requirements in Australia, this is a fantastic opportunity. You can register your interest to attend and gain valuable insights into navigating the changing landscape of the program.
