Regional Initiatives Visa in Australia

Overview
The Australian Government is working closely with state, territory and local governments, and regional authorities to provide regional migration programmes that support regional development and help supply the skill needs of regional employers.
These programmes are designed to address the special circumstances of rural and regional Australia.
They are employer-friendly, flexible and include concessions for regional employers.
The programmes aim to attract young, skilled, English speaking migrants to areas of Australia where they are most needed. Generally, skilled migrants are under 45 years of age, have functional English, diploma level qualifications or above and relevant work experience.
