2022-23 Program closing - Thank You

 

Last Friday June 30th concluded an extremely busy year for Migration Queensland. Thank you to everyone who made this year a success!

We have nominated more than 4300 applications under the State nominated visa pathway this year. Each application is more than a number: it is a person choosing to call Queensland home, and contributing their skills and experience to this great State. If you are one of these people, we warmly welcome you to Queensland. If you are not a migrant, but played any role in this process - we thank you for making this incredible achievement possible. We look forward to continuing this collaborative success in the future. 
 

2023 - 2034 program opening

Migration Queensland await the final decision from the Department of Home Affairs on our quota and planning levels for 2023 - 24. Once this is finalised, and our systems are aligned with the refreshed criteria and program structure, we will determine a date to open the new program and will publicise this on our website. We appreciate your patience while these items are finalised. 


For applicants who have received an invitation, paid their application fee and provided all documents by 5pm June 30 2023, and have not received a final decision, we will continue to assess the application but it will not be decided until our 2023 - 24 program opens. When we are ready to open the program, we will decide these applications in a timely manner. All other applications will be closed, and a new Expression of Interest (EOI) will need to be submitted once the new proogram opens. 

To stay up-to-date, please follow us on LinkedIn and Facebook

Happy EOFY!
