GENERAL SKILLED MIGRATION
ADELAIDE PROCESSING INFORMATION
This is an automated e-mail response which provides updated information on
skilled migration applications being processed by the Adelaide Skilled
Processing Centre (ASPC). Please do not reply to this email address as
this mailbox is not monitored. Contact details for the ASPC are listed
below.
Priority Processing - Change From 1 January 2009
Following recent announcements by the Minister for Immigration and
Citizenship, in response to the current global economic environment,
processing of General Skilled Migration applications gives first priority
to applications in the following two categories:
1. Applications with a successful State or Territory Nomination; and
2. Applications where the nominated occupation is identified on the
Critical Skills List (CSL).
Note: Due to the number of applications in the above two categories, on
hand and being received, applications not on the CSL, or applications
without a successful State or Territory nomination, will be delayed until
those applications which meet the processing priorities are finalised. This
includes those on the Migration Occupations in Demand List (MODL)
Details of the Minister’s announcements can be found on the DIAC website
via the following link:
