Conclusion

The latest invitation round of Australia PR is been just published, after a waiting of more than five months. One of the premium reasons that we may consider for such delay is the application flow. As per the above-mentioned tables in this immigration new year the DHA has already invited nearly 60K applicants which means most of the eligible applications may have already been selected to apply for Australian Permanent Residency. As a result, the department may be waiting to fill the database with new applications. However, though the department is delaying issuing the new draws but the potentiality of Migrating to Australia is still very high.
