Closure of the Capital Investment Scheme on 31 October 2009

From 31 October 2009, the South Australian Government Financing Authority (SAFA) has announced it will not accept any further applications from General Skilled Migration (GSM) applicants who wish to lodge a capital investment, as it will close the scheme.

Since the announcement of the reopening of the capital investment scheme by SAFA on 29 January 2009, the department has contacted all applicants whose cases had been assessed and who indicated they intended to lodge a capital investment.

Any applicants who have indicated on their application form that they intend to lodge a capital investment, but have not yet done so, are advised to finalise their capital investment before the scheme is closed.

每个人都有自己的梦想，然而，人的一生能够为了梦想而做点什么的机会却并不多，很多时候梦想只是梦想，做白日梦的时候想的事情。我渐渐意识

Government announces changes to 457 visa program

Wednesday, 1 April 2009

Today the Government announced changes to the Subclass 457 visa program in order to ensure that it continues to provide industry with needed skills, while not undermining local training and employment opportunities.

This package includes responses to recommendations from the Deegan Review into the integrity of the 457 visa program and the views of stakeholders on the Skilled Migration Consultative Panel.

The Government will be considering further m
