Transitional Arrangements for International Students

In February 2010, the Australian government announced a number of changes to its Skilled Migration program. These changes included the withdrawal of the Migration Occupation in Demand List and the introduction of a new Skilled Occupation List.

The changes included generous transitional arrangements which have been extended to current and former students. These transitional arrangements are in place until the end of 2012.
