The Australian Government announced the launch of the National Innovation Visa (NIV) last year, aimed at attracting exceptionally talented individuals from overseas. As we approach the end of the financial year, state governments have begun releasing their own nomination criteria for this highly anticipated visa.

Skills in Demand and National Innovation Visa Rollout Expected

The National Innovation Visa program aims to consolidate the closed Business Innovation and Investment Visa program (BIIP) and the Global Talent Visa program. The ultimate purpose is to provide more benefit to Australia economically by attracting highly talented individuals through Australian’s migration policy.
