In Australia, the only legitimate sponsorship visa for a ‘Minister of Religion’ is via a Labour Agreement. This agreement allows Australian religious organisations to sponsor the temporary and often eventually permanent entry of overseas skilled workers. There is also a temporary visa that has a specific Minister of Religion Stream which is a lot easier for religious organisations to access than the labour agreement.

澳洲競爭力委員會在2016年9月12日發表了一份有關移民政策的研究報告﹐當中包括僱主擔保﹐父母簽證﹐及其他簽證整體對澳洲的效益和負擔等等。當時沒有引起很廣泛的討論﹐但是其中很多的建議都被政府所採納﹐并成為今年4月18日公佈的457/186簽證改革的一部份﹐包括提高英語能力要求﹐加強本土勞動市場測試等等。 報告當中亦有提及父母永久簽證, 重點包括: 數據顯示父母永久簽證大大加重澳洲醫療負擔﹐而現時大約5萬澳元左右的申請費遠遠不足以補償政府相關開支; 父母簽證持有人的開支大部份由澳洲政府及納稅人支付﹐但效益則多數只由簽證持有人及其家庭享有; 父母簽證持有人對澳洲經濟貢獻比較低。 今年初澳洲政府公佈的3/5年期父母旅遊簽證正是該報告內所提出的一個建議。其他建議在今年或明年亦隨時會被接納成移民政策﹐包括: 大幅提高現時每人5萬澳元的申請費。報告建議最少增加一倍至每人10萬澳元; 縮減每年貢獻類父母簽證(Contributory parent visa)的配額﹐直接降低相關政府支出﹐但亦會延長等待時間。現時等待時間為3年﹐已經比起2015年的水平增加1年。 坊間亦有傳言將來父母簽證申請人亦需要提供基本英語能力証明﹐改善他們來到澳洲後適應及融入澳洲社會的能力。 該報告亦有建議澳洲政府廢除投資移民簽證(188C 及 188D)。 我們預期澳洲政府在接下來將會按建議改革父母簽證﹐假如您有打算為父母辦理這個簽證的話﹐我們建議您盡快計劃及遞交申請！
