New visa rules for Indian students studying in Australia came into effect on Saturday, offering greater opportunities for Indian graduates to work in Australian institutions without sponsorship for up to 8 years. This is made possible under the Mobility Arrangement for Talented Early-Professionals scheme, which was established as part of a bilateral agreement signed between India and Australia last month.
Under this scheme, 3,000 annual spots will be available for young professionals from India, giving them the chance to stay in Australia for up to 2 years without requiring visa sponsorship. The visa will be available to Indians from 7 sectors, including engineering, information and communication technology, artificial intelligence, financial technology, renewable energy, and mining.
This new visa arrangement is expected to benefit both India and Australia, as it will allow Indian graduates to gain valuable work experience in Australia while contributing to the country’s economy. It will also help to strengthen the relationship between the two countries and promote greater collaboration in areas such as technology and renewable energy.
The new visa rules represent a positive development for Indian students and young professionals looking to gain valuable work experience in Australia, while also providing a boost to the Australian economy and strengthening ties between the two countries.
