Australia’s temporary visa programs allow people to come to Australia for a broad range of specific purposes (including to visit, study, working holidays and for international relations work) that deliver substantial economic and cultural benefits. The student visa and visitor visa programs are key enablers for Australia’s international education and tourism sectors, usually two of the largest export sectors.

The Skill stream of the Migration Program is designed to meet Australia’s economic, demographic and labour market needs. It provides for the entry of migrants with higher than average labour force participation and productivity and specialist skills in demand in the labour market. Skilled migrants generate benefits for the economy by bringing to Australia new knowledge and skills, helping businesses take up new technology, and providing further connections to global markets. Specific skilled visas for regional Australia help to meet workforce shortages in designated regions.
General Skilled Migration is for skilled workers who do not have an employer sponsoring them but possess desirable skills and attributes and are able to pass the points test. This category includes the skilled independent and state and territory nominated visas:

This subclass 858 visa is for people who have an internationally recognised record of exceptional and outstanding achievement.
The program is designed to meet genuine skills shortage while not undercutting local employment, wages and conditions. The TSS visa enables employers to meet their workforce needs by bringing skilled workers from overseas where they cannot recruit an appropriately skilled Australian worker.

While Australia’s migration system does not offer automatic progression from temporary to permanent visas, a large number of permanent migrants use temporary visas as a pathway to gaining permanent residence.
Temporary visa holders who are in Australia are a major source of permanent Skill Stream visa applications, with a number of visas providing a pathway from temporary to permanent residence for those who have demonstrated their ability to contribute to the Australian economy.
Within the Skill Stream, the Employer Sponsored and Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional categories were most reliant on applications by Temporary Work visa holders while Graduate and Student visa holders comprised a significant proportion of grants for the State/Territory Nominated and Skilled Work Regional categories.
