根據移民局剛剛發布的最新消息,2015-2016財年的獨立技術移民職業清單SOL新鮮出爐:
一方面,職業列表發生更新,會計、計算機、教師等熱門職業都仍然在清單上,另一方面城市規劃和設計,牙醫專業被移除職業清單,新增鈑金工和櫥柜工兩大職業(政府又要開始鼓勵TAFE移民的趨勢?)。
此外根據澳大利亞人報紙的最新消息,會計職業配額也會減少。消息原文截屏:
移民局消息原文全文:
Joint media release - Senator the Hon Michaelia Cash, Assistant Minister for Immigration and Border Protection and Senator the Hon Simon Birmingham, Assistant Minister for Education and Training
Panelbeaters and cabinet makers will be added to the Skilled Occupation List (SOL) for independent skilled migration applicants, the Assistant Minister for Immigration and Border Protection, Senator the Hon Michaelia Cash and the Assistant Minister for Education and Training, Senator the Hon Simon Birmingham, announced today。
助理移民部長Michaelia Cash和助理教育部長Simon Birmingham宣布獨立技術移民職業清單將會增加鈑金工和櫥柜工兩大職業。
Minister Cash said the new occupations on the SOL reflect that there is a gap between the skills of Australians and the work that needs to be done。
Cash部長說新的職業清單反應了澳洲人所擁有的技能與需要完成工作之前的空缺。
“Cabinet makers and panelbeaters make a valuable contribution to the Australian economy. Migrants with these skills will enhance the size and skill of the Australian workforce,” Minister Cash said。
“鈑金工和櫥柜工給澳洲經濟做了重要貢獻,擁有這些技能的新移民將能增加澳洲勞動力的技能水平”Cash部長說道。
“Skilled migrants complement locally trained and skilled workers, help to create new jobs and contribute to the communities in which they live and work. The Government’s $6 billion annual investment in vocational education and training is also supporting our training system to offer a pipeline of local talent to help address skills shortages,” Senator Birmingham said。
“獨立技術移民是對本地技術工人的補充,幫助創造新的工作并且給他們生活和工作的社區做出貢獻。政府每年投資職業教育和培訓60億美元,也創造出更多本地人才來彌補技術人才短缺”,Birmingham議員說道。
The SOL was updated based on the findings of a review of Australia’s labour market and education and migration data by the Department of Industry and Science. The review also considered submissions by industry, unions, trade and professional organisations。
職業評估的更新是基于對澳洲就業市場的審視,及工業科學就業部收集的教育和移民數據。這個更新同時也反饋了行業、公會和其他職業機構的意見。
The SOL applies to independent points based skilled migration (skilled migrants not nominated by State or Territory Governments), Family Sponsored visa applications and Temporary Graduate (subclass 485) visa applicants in the Graduate Work stream. Occupational ceilings are set for each occupation on the SOL to limit the number of migrants under each occupation in this part of the migration programme
SOL職業清單適用于打分的技術移民(不是被州政府擔保的技術移民),親屬擔保移民和畢業生工作簽證(485簽證)。每個職業都會有職業配額來限制每年具體職業的移民數量。
Other key changes to the SOL include the removal of urban and regional planners, dentists and dental specialists. Additional occupations have been flagged for close review in next year’s process
其他重大變化包括移除以下職業:城市規劃、牙醫和牙科專家。另外的一些職業被標記,來年可能會被密切觀察。
The new SOL comes into effect on 1 July 2015. It will be used for applications made from that date。
新的職業清單從2015年7月1號起開始執行。7月1號之后遞交的申請都按新的清單要求來。
新政一出,讓即將畢業和想申請會計專業的學生心理稍微踏實了些。因為會計也許會被職業清單剔除的傳言已經被傳了很久,但是直到現在,會計仍然堅挺。把“會計”保留在技術移民清單上,實際上反映了澳洲政府嘗試保護留學產業的意圖。大約25%的海外商科留學生選擇就讀會計專業。畢業后,他們能憑借畢業生臨時簽證在澳洲逗留18個月。因此會計不會被突然拿下的,現在學會計的中國學生占了大多數,除非澳洲政府不打算教育出口了,不打算掙我們中國人的錢了。(本文整理自老查話留學)
