The Australian High Commission in London has confirmed that from the 1st of July, 2002 London can no longer accept applications for Business Skills Migration.
From the beginning of next month all Business Skills Migration applicants (apart from residents of the Peoples Republic of China (PRC) and Taiwan) must lodge their applications directly with the Perth Business Skills Processing Centre (PBSPC). This means that from the 1st of July, 2002 London can no longer, by law, accept an application for Business Skills Migration. Any application sent to the London High Commission after the 1st of July, 2002 will be returned.
To be a valid application you must lodge your application by mail to:
Perth Business Skills Processing Centre,
Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs,
Locked Bag 7,
Northbridge,
WA 6865,
AUSTRALIA.
Or if sent by courier:
Perth Business Skills Processing Centre,
Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs,
Third Floor City Central,
166, Murray Street,
Perth,
WA 6000,
AUSTRALIA.
The fee must be paid in A$'s and at present is A$3,240. Payment methods include credit card (American Express, Mastercard, Visa, Diners Club, JCB or Bankcard), or a bank cheque drawn on a bank with representation in Australia. Cheques should be made payable to CPM, DIMIA.
Importantly, note that if you do not submit the correct visa application charge, the application will not be accepted and will be returned.
The PBSPC can be contacted via email at bcperth@immi.gov.au bcperth@immi.gov.au, or by fax at +61 8 9415 9288, and typical processing times for Business Skills applications through the PBSPC are 6 months at present.
And if you would like to know how we can help with the preparation and submission of your visa application (including our no-VAT fee option) please send us an email and let us know when we can contact you.
