hookturn Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 There is an article from an online newspaper stating that Home Affairs Department to force new migrants to live in regional areas. I cannot view the article. How true is this? Can anyone share more information? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amibovered Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) I don't think it will be all migrants, just certain categories, 187 maybe? http://www.news.com.au/national/breaking-news/migrants-to-be-forced-to-stay-in-regions/news-story/880a461b3fad5adc157981b7b32987d1 Edited May 14, 2018 by amibovered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amibovered Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Yep, looks like it's the 187s they are after. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5727471/Overseas-migrants-forced-stay-regional-Australia-new-policy.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemesis Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Might put a stop to the huge numbers of 190s who get visas but instantly leave the sponsoring state - or in some cases never even enter it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've often wondered when they would make the obligation a statutory rather than moral one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
