ACT

The Australian Capital Territory (ACT) Government can sponsor skilled and business migrants to live and work in Canberra, Australia’s national capital.

Canberra is a great place to make a fresh start. You might not know as much about Australia’s capital as you do about other Australian cities, but many people say Canberra is ‘Australia’s best kept secret’. What sets Canberra aside from most other Australian and world cities is its incredible lifestyle.

Canberra offers excellent employment opportunities, outstanding health and education services and a lifestyle that is relaxed and friendly. This is a tolerant, diverse, safe and welcoming city. The citizens live longer, healthy lives, the people are better educated and the average salary is higher than for other Australians.

With no toll roads or traffic hassles, Canberra commuters find that they spend less time in the car and more time enjoying themselves at home or in one of the many leisure pursuits that Canberra has to offer.

Canberra is a place where you can enjoy all the benefits that a world class, cosmopolitan city has to offer, without the crowds, pollution or a frantic, stressful pace of life. Simply put, Canberra offers its residents a lifestyle second to none.

Despite the current worldwide economic downturn, Canberra has one of the lowest unemployment rates in Australia and thousands of jobs available, Canberra needs skilled people who are looking for a fresh start and a better life. The cranes which dot our skyline reflect the current building boom, a full employment economy, and private investment now in excess of A$3 billion per annum. As the home of the Australian Government, Canberra enjoys distinct advantages for investors. The city’s highly skilled workforce drives a vital business, educational and cultural hub that nurtures new technologies, creativity and innovation, and of course Canberra is the home of the Super 14 Brumbies franchise.
