The former Distinguished Talent visa became known as the Global Talent visa, which offers a streamlined visa pathway for highly skilled professionals, or for those who have achieved prominence in the arts, sport or research and academia.
It is designed to provide a streamlined and priority visa pathway for exceptional talents looking to migrate to Australia permanently. This is part of the Government’s initiative to attract the brightest individuals in “target sectors”. Migration program planning will be a key component of Australia’s economic recovery after COVID 19 and the Government is carefully targeting skilled workers.
To be eligible for the GTI program, you will need to provide evidence of the required recognised talent within the outlined sectors and meet the high-income threshold (currently $153,600 per year) or prove the potential to earn it.
Applicants who are under 18 years old or over 55 years old at the time of application will need to demonstrate an exceptional benefit for the Department to consider the application. Talk to a migration agent in Australia to get the right advice before submitting your application.
