Australian Labor Party Gives Easier And Cheaper Visas To Migrant Parents
22 Apr 2019
Migrant Australian Parents will find it simpler and cheaper to obtain visas if Labor party wins the upcoming May federal election, but the coalition states it is a cruel trick.
Labor Party Promises on Migrant Parent Visa
Labor is assuring for the termination of the current system, which forces families of Australians to select which set of parents can obtain a visa to visit. The present cap of 15,000 parents for each year will be eliminated and will be demand-driven, says Labor.
Several elderly parents aspire to rejoin with their families but have to move to Australia as tourists - showing frustrating, costly, exhausting and disruptive as they cross between nations, Labor leader Bill Shorten told on 22 Apr 2019.
Labor is proposing to launch Long Stay
Parent visas, which will eliminate the current 15,000-place cap on the migrant parent visas, and enable families to get both sets of parents out.
But the coalition states eliminating the cap will indicate approximately 100,000 people will appeal for the new visas. The cost will also be decreased, from AUD 5000 for a 03-year visa to AUD 1250, and from AUD 10,000 for a 05-year visa to AUD 2500.
Temporary parent visas presently cannot be renewed within Australia, but Labor is assuring to allow migrant parents to renew their visas while they are inside the country.
David Coleman, Immigration Minister said more than 97,000 people are attempting various kinds of permanent parent visas to
migrate to Australia.
Under Labor's latest visa, there is definitely no limit to the number of individuals who can enter the nation for up to 10 years, said by Mr. Coleman.
Mr. Coleman told the coalition had discussed with migrant communities to promote the capped policy in the years 2016 and 2017, but the coalition had broken its 2016 election commitment to launch a new parent visa in the year 2017.
Mr. Coleman said that Labor understands complete well and that this proposal would be absolutely unsustainable. It is attempting to perform a cruel hoax on communities of migrant.
