Those who often read my articles have read the author's introduction of Australia's amnesty for illegal immigrants in 1976 and 1981. Many people benefit from this policy and stay in Australia. But here's the problem. The policy has led many latecomers to hope that Australia's government will grant them amnesty. These people have been waiting in Australia, some for more than 30 years.
The author is engaged in immigration law, has helped a lot of long-term black people. Some people first arrived in Australia in 1985, but did not show up to apply for permanent residence status. Only after meeting the author did they take the advice of the author, apply for legal status, and finally obtain permanent residence status with the help of the author.
How did he / they get their identity? Some of the black people who have lived in Australia for a long time have children or relatives who have a permanent status in Australia; some have obtained permanent residence directly; some have to take two steps to achieve permanent residence; and some have their own skills; Some people are long-term tax returns, or run their own business. With the help of the author, the ultimate permanent residence status.
And how did I meet these people? Some are encouraged by the author's clients, they come to consult the author, only to find that you can apply for legal residence; Some people turned to the author for help because they were held at the detain Center, and finally learned that they could actually obtain legal status early in the morning and not be held in custody.
The author found that many black people lack the understanding of the immigration law policy. Some people do not read newspapers; some people do not understand English; some people miss the opportunity to apply for legal residence because they are ignorant; some people, though they have applied, do not know how to prove that they meet the application criteria, thus wasting the opportunity in vain!
Why do these triads stay in Australia for a long time without making any applications? In fact, he / they have been mistakenly waiting for Australia's government to amnesty the black people again!
In fact, Australia's government has made different "amnesty", not "amnesty"? Because amnesty is only for certain people and targets. For example, black people who had already lived in Australia before 1984 could apply for permanent residence; at the Year Nineteen Eighty-nine, they announced their policy: to grant black people who were already in Australia before 1988 that they could apply for residence before 1993; Year Nineteen Eighty-nine has already been in citizen, Australia, on June 20. Applicants who have applied for refugee in 1993 may apply for permanent residence. In 1996, another amnesty was granted to 1993 Chinese citizen who had already entered the country. In 2007, immigrant minister gave black people the opportunity to apply for change of status, including those who can apply for a spouse visa in Australia, those who live in Australia for a long time, who are skilled, are self-employed, who have relatives in Australia, and who have a record of filing taxes. The policy did not end until 2012. These "amnesty" policies have been mastered by professionals, helping tens of thousands of black people gain permanent status. But those who have been waiting for an amnesty are reluctant to come out and miss out on good opportunities.
I met Mr. A, and he had the same experience as his friend. The author has successfully submitted his application for his friend. His friend strongly recommended to Mr. A to seek the author's help, the author also encouraged Mr. A to seize the application opportunity. Finally, he insisted on waiting for a friend to obtain permanent residence before submitting the application to protect the whole! In the end, his friend was granted permanent status in 2012, ending a nine-year black life (eventually all of guarantee's family, who emigrated from China to Australia), and he missed the precious opportunity. When his friend got a permanent residence, Mr. A immediately asked the author for help. I told him that minister would stop intervening and wait for the next amnesty. He was disappointed and helpless to leave the author's office.
I write this article to tell the reader: government is not without any conditions to grant the status of black people with amnesty. The reason is: there may be criminals or terrorist hidden among the black people, so government must identify everyone and confirm that the person who gives permanent residence has a specific offering to Australia.
If you are a black citizen, whether you are in the province or in the far countryside, you can book the author for an interview. The next amnesty is coming. Remember: "opportunity is to give ready people."
I have encountered several past applications, the author and the applicant is known to each other, but they found other immigration agents to deal with their applications. Since his husband and wife are being dealt with by his colleague, I am not in a position to give any opinion. But when I occasionally meet the applicants, they also ask questions, such as taxation and hiring. In the opinion of the author, it takes a little money to pay and apply for employment, but it can improve their chances of applying for success. Why is it not happy to do so?. However, his agent did not agree. In the end, the couple chose to follow the advice of their agent. I understand that it is possible to save money because paying taxes and paying legal wages does not necessarily guarantee permanent residence. At that time, the author also dealt with several similar cases, these cases are still in the process of immigration, still no final results. However, my customers listen to the author's advice, tax and hire employees after the law, ultimately, these customers have obtained permanent residence status. Unfortunately, the couple, who did not follow my advice, were rejected by the Immigration Department (visa results came down almost at the same time). The author believes that the black people do business in Australia, not even pay taxes, do not contribute to the Australian society, it is difficult to persuade immigrant minister to give him permanent residence status. Of course, this inference is only the author's personal opinion, the success of the black people may also be a coincidence.
In 2009, the Australian Labour Party's government revised its policy to allow some black people to stay in Australia, with Australian spouses as guarantee applicants applying for a permanent spouse visa in Australia. But since Unionparty government came to power, government has tightened the policy. Now it is becoming more and more difficult for applicants to submit such visa applications in Australia. Last week, Congress also passed the new law, further restricting spouse visa applications: at the beginning of next year, all spouse visa applications must first be approved by the guarantee qualification, that is, guarantee people must first apply for guarantee status and obtain guarantee qualification. To guarantee his spouse. Therefore, if those who are ready to apply for a spouse visa have to apply as soon as possible, otherwise, when the relevant law takes effect early next year, there will be more problems.
I have a special love for Australia, because the Australian character and national rule of law is fair, the natural environment is very good. Compared to Hong Kong, where I was born, life in Australia is really like living in heaven, because there is not much pressure on life. I understand that many people and I have a common view, is to pursue a stable life, and be able to get the protection of Australia's law, there is a perfect social security, only to come to Australia. However, not everyone who likes to live in Australia can meet the immigration criteria, which is why some black people have been waiting in Australia for many years, although their visas have expired, they still stay in Australia. He / they expect that one day they will finally get an amnesty from Australia's government and stay in Australia legally.
I know that many people have missed the opportunity to pardon many times because they have not received the correct information. Therefore, the author provides some references to people who want to obtain legal status: for example, they should try their best to improve their education and obtain qualification. If you do business in Australia, you have to pay taxes legally. I believe that everyone has the right to pursue their dreams and choose where to live. Australia is an inclusive country with great wealth. Australia needs more people and applicants are looking for further personal development. The current skilled immigration policy is aimed at high-education professionals, but lack of technical staff. As long as the black people can prove their skills, the author believes that next year there may be another "amnesty" opportunity, should be well grasped. Don't hide any more so as to avoid Xiang Yu.
The author has been engaged in immigration business for many years and has a good knowledge and familiarity with Australia's immigration history. Every once in a while, Australia's government will grant amnesty to a certain part of the population. Australia's government now has a backlog of semi-skilled personnel, some of whom currently hold temporary work visas or cross-bridge visas, but their visas will soon expire. If their visas expire, where should these people go? How are their vacancies to be filled? Some of the children are citizen's parents in Australia, because now government does not give them legal status, they can only become black people. As far as I know, the number of such cases is indeed quite a lot. The next government will eventually have to come up with solutions to the problems.
