With the application endorsement deadline now passed, the focus shifts to preparing for the DAMA extension with the Australian Government. This period is crucial for both future skilled migrants and South Australian employers.
Invitation to Register Interest for Employers
Employers still looking to sponsor skilled migrants under the anticipated DAMA extension are encouraged to register their interest now by contacting migration.employer@sa.gov.au.
