Victoria: Hotspot for Partner Visas
Almost 12.000 partner visas were issued to the Garden State last year.
Victoria is a hotspot for partner visas, the The Herald Sun has reported recently.
Referring to the Federal Government's latest State and Territory Migration Summary Report, a recent article noted that, “More than 2000 Indians, 1245 Chinese and about 1000 UK-born migrants were among 11,840 people to get partner visas in 2012-13.The total number for Australia was more than 46,000, including people in gay relationships.”
The article did not reveal whether the sponsors are Australian born or new migrants themselves.
Partner visas comprise nearly 80 per cent of all family stream visas, followed by parent visas.
The report noted that Victoria had a total of 60,430 permanent additions in 2012-13, including 41,000 settler arrivals and 19,500 foreigners already living here who were given permanent residency.
The report revealed that almost 60 per cent of all settler arrivals were Asian-born, led by Chinese, Indians and Sri Lankans.
Only 10 per cent of arrivals were European-born while 8 per cent came from North Africa and the Middle East.
