Australia | Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold Raised

he Australian government announced that the Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold will increase from 70,000 Australian dollars to AU$73,150 (about US$48,600), effective July 1.

Key Points:

New nomination applications will need to meet the new TSMIT or the annual market salary rate, whichever is higher.

Existing visa holders and nominations filed before July 1 will not be impacted by the increase.

The legislation is pending release and more information will be provided once it becomes available.

Additional Information: Both the annual market salary rate for the nominated occupation and the guaranteed annual earnings must be at least as much as the TSMIT. This threshold does not include non-monetary benefits, and employers pay benefits in addition to the TSMIT.
