Australian Immigration through State Sponsorship There are various ways to apply for immigration to Australia. Australian immigration through state sponsorship is one of them. After the introduction of Skill Select in Australia migration policy structure, this path (state sponsorship) has become quite popular both in skills and business categories. The performance of the provincial nomination routes has been outstanding in the last financial year (July 2012 to June 2013). Over 20000 people have been shortlisted for the state sponsorship. Under current Australian immigration policy, state nomination is under priority initiative. This has been done to boost the provincial economies; especially the business migration has been bought completely under the provincial purview. The 6 provinces and 2 NCTs of Australia have been running their individual Australia Immigration schemes which have been linked to the state centric programs and schemes. To apply for state sponsorship of a state, it is not necessary a person must have offer of employment. Each state has its own policy for the nomination approval. But there is one aspect which is applicable for all the states. An individual who has been sponsored by a particular state, he is supposed to live in that state for minimum 2 years. Breach of this condition may result in cancellation of his visa. While lodging his EOI, one must select and indicate the provinces he would like to earn a nomination from. The EOI is assessed for suitability of an individual for Australian immigration on basis of point based evaluation test. One must attain a minimum score of 60 marks to be deemed qualified for consideration of selection. Once an individual is shortlisted by the state, he becomes eligible for visa lodgement. State sponsored visa application is processed on priority basis. Therefore Australian immigration through state sponsorship is a viable option.
