Australia Attracts More Foreigners

In Work visa Australia applications have started to be on the rise once again. And this has got not only the Department of Immigration and Citizenship excited. As it turns out, the increase of people wanting to immigrate into the land down under means that there will be more people to fill in the country's needs.

And there is still more to this increase. As it is, the number of countries from which these immigrants are coming from have also grown significantly in the last few years, and this means that there are indeed more and more people are starting to get interested in moving to the country. And this will also do great wonders for the country int the long.

Britons are still very much the single largest nationality group that moves to Australia each year. This, of course, is not that surprising, since they are pretty much the ones who have moved into Australia ever since it was established more than a hundred years ago. In recent years, however, the land down under has seen a significant number of Brits wishing to settle there. In fact, in a survey conducted in the United Kingdom, more than two thirds of those who have responded said that they are more than willing to relocated to Australia.

And it is not only the Brits who are thinking of moving into the Country. In the past few years, the land down under has also started to catch a significant chunk of the Asian immigrant market. Here, the Chinese are the biggest number of people moving in. Indians come in next, with student visa holders wishing to settle in making up the bulk of them. The Southeast Asian countries are also a significant figure set in the immigration numbers, with those coming from Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Philippines being the most numerous.

One of the biggest reasons that many of these immigrants have pointed for their choice to move in is Australia's booming economy. Indeed, the Australian economy has since grown a huge amount in the last few months, and this has opened a lot of opportunities for foreign workers. These, coupled with tons of lucrative job offers, have surely caught the fancy of people from abroad.

Aside from that, many people have also cited the Australian lifestyle as another reason for moving into the country. For them, the Aussie way of life is very attractive in that it enables them to live the way that they want to.
