Migration rebound slowed by Australians leaving the country since borders reopened

Australia – Deloitte Access has conducted an employment forecast, which will be released today. Based on the results, the unemployed are now only slightly more than the vacancies. These vacancies may be an opportunity to expand the humanitarian visa program.

Although it is worth noting that the recovery of migration in Australia after the opening of its borders is slowed by an almost equal flow of Australians, holidaymakers, or going abroad for work.

More than 29,000 people arrived in the three months to December 2021, the first net increase since Covid began. As can be seen from preliminary reports, there are now 0.9 departures for every permanent or long-term arrival in Australia, well above the pre-pandemic ratio of 0.65 departures per arrival.
