Description

To help address the skills and general labour shortage in Northern Inland NSW, a leading Australian expert on migration laws, policies and processes will soon be touring the region. Michael Jeremy will be bringing communities up to speed on new migration rules and regulations, which arrive with the new financial year.

Regional Development Australia (RDA) Northern Inland is responsible for the visit, with funding support from Industry and Investment NSW. This is just one way that RDA Northern Inland is working to support economic development by providing the region with free access to legal migration advice.

Beginning on Monday, 23 May, RDA Northern Inland will be staging a week of immigration law seminars around the region from 6pm - 8pm at the following venues; Best Western Sanctuary Inn, Tamworth, Monday 23rd; Country Comfort Armidale, Tuesday 24th; Riverside Function Centre, Inverell, Wednesday 25th ; and Moree Services Club, Thursday 26th.

Michael Jeremy has worked in varying immigration capacities since the mid-1990’s including the Department of Immigration and Citizenship, Sydney Airport (Border Security), & the Migration Institute of Australia. Currently he travels around the country lecturing in immigration law, specifically relating to skilled migration and students.

Significant changes are being made to the points test for general skilled migration and the entire employer nomination system. The Student Visa Review and the Business Skills Review are also happening now.
