All of these changes are in line with the Government’s longer-term goal to shift the balance of the skilled migration program. Historically, the employer-sponsored and government-sponsored streams of the skilled migration program have collectively represented just 20 to 25 per cent of the skilled migration program while the majority entered through the non-sponsored independent skilled stream.
The Government has sought to shift that balance. In the 2008–09 skilled migration program, the employer-sponsored and government-sponsored streams will represent 43 per cent of the visa grants. In the 2009–10 skilled migration program, it is likely that the two sponsored streams will represent close to 50 per cent of visa grants, with a corresponding decline in the proportion of non-sponsored visa grants.
