New research by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship(DIAC) shows that migrants accelerate their employment outcomes in the yearfollowing their first six months in Australia.
Minister for Immigration and Citizenship Kevin Andrews said today the thirdLongitudinal Survey of Immigrants to Australia (LSIA3) showed that employment amongskilled migrants increased from 91 per cent after six months to 97 per cent afterthey had been in Australia for 18 months.
The research also shows a dramatic improvement for family-stream migrants whereemployment increased from 80 per cent to 94 per cent in the year after their firstsix months settling in,' Mr Andrews said.
Australia is the ideal destination for migrants - our strong economy iscomplemented by our selection of young migrants with good English and recognisedskills.
After 18 months in Australia, median earnings of skilled migrants are $47 000 a year.
Skilled migrants living in regional and low-growth areas do even better, with 99per cent employed after 18 months and average incomes around $50 000.'
The longitudinal survey also showed the correlation of higher English language testscores and better job outcomes, endorsing Government changes to the skilledmigration points test.
If migrants are to actively participate in the workforce, then at the very leastthey need a reasonable command of English. It also makes sense if migrants are totake advantage of everything that this country has to offer, both the economic andsocial benefits.
LSIA3 interviewed almost 10 000 primary applicants from the skilled and familymigration streams who arrived in Australia or were granted visas onshore betweenDecember 2004 and March 2005.
