With the federal elections approaching in May, the ruling party (the Liberal Party) has introduced the following new visa and immigration policies in an attempt to address the problem of artificially dense populations in major Australian cities and put pressure on their infrastructure. The following new visa and immigration policies also require a legislative process. If the Labor Party wins the federal election in May. Then, new visa and immigration policies may be overturned or changed. Because the two major Australian parties (the Labour Party and the Liberal Party) both want to disperse the flow of people from the major Australian cities to remote areas, the author personally believes that if the Labour Party election is successful, the new visa and policies are likely to be overthrown, but It is possible to modify it under the larger framework.

Assuming the new visas and policies are implemented as scheduled in November this year, the definition of remote areas will change. The new remote area is defined as all parts of Australia except for large cities such as Sydney, Helburn, Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Perth. It remains to be seen what the postal codes for large cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Perth as defined by the immigration law and what the new definition means.

If the new visa is launched in November, the 187 Employer Guaranteed Visa for Remote Areas and the 489 Skilled Migration Visa seem to be cancelled.
