Rising from the tough times!

The COVID-19 pandemic was a big dampener for Australia immigration. It even caused a dip in immigrant arrivals in Australia by 85,000 people in FY 2020-2021. But the jump in the number of immigrants in 2022 shows that Australia’s immigration is on the way up when it comes to annual performance.

That’s why we think you should go with the times and opt to immigrate to Australia. Check your eligibility to immigrate to Australia through Y-Axis Australia Immigration Points Calculator.
