Australia’s Subclass 190, Subclass 491 visa migration programs news

There’s a system of immigration quotas that jurisdictions of different regions of Australia receive each year. It’s on the basis of this that Australian states and territories issue nominations to skilled and business migrants. They come under the Subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated) visa and the Subclass 491 (Skilled Work Regional (Provisional)) visa.
Just like 2020, the Skilled Migration program in the current financial year will operate in response to the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. The program will give emphasis on migrants capable of making investments in Australia, creating employment, offering skills in critical areas related to health and medicine, and supporting productivity in the economy.
