What is the change? Australia has increased application fees for most visa classes by more than 7%.
Additional information: Visa application fee increases totaled more than 7% for most visa classes on July 1. The increase included a 2.25% annual Consumer Price Index increase as well as a 5.54% increase for most visa subclasses. A news alert published last week included some incorrect figures that did not take the full increase into account.
The fee levels (in Australian dollars) as of July 1 are as follows:
The fees relating to sponsorship applications and TSS/ENS nomination applications remain the same. There has also been no change to the Skilling Australians Fund (SAF) Levy, payable upon lodgement of TSS/ENS nomination applications.
More information regarding the July 1 fee increase can be found here.
Analysis & Comments: Employers and individual visa applicants should review the new fees and make sure that applications lodged after July 1 follow the new fee schedule.
