Latest Northern Territory (NT) Skilled Occupation List 2021 Canada
Why do people migrate to the Northern Territory in Australia?
With recent changes in immigration policies in Australia, more and more people are moving to Northern Territory. The Northern Territory is beautiful with its vast stretches of over 25 million hectares of pristine land and rich culture. NT is a large, sparsely populated state in the north of Australia. The capital is Darwin. It's one of the eight states and two territories that make up the Commonwealth of Australia.
The Northern Territory has a very dry climate, with many areas having no rainfall at all. It is one of the most remote places on earth. It has an area of 1.35 million km² and is surrounded by Queensland, South Australia, and Western Australia. The territory has a population of 275,000 people. Since the territory is sparsely populated, there is plenty of room for new arrivals.
The territory relies on things like agriculture, mining and tourism to keep going. Despite its searing heat and rugged scrubland, NT attracts immigrants with its flowing rivers, natural beauty, relaxed lifestyle and good weather. It has a mild climate with few extremes in temperature or weather patterns. It also has a low crime rate.
How to use the NT Migration Occupation List?
The Northern Territory (NT) Migration Occupation List helps offshore applicants to decide whether they are eligible for nomination by the Northern Territory government or not.
It should be noted that occupations marked with an asterisk (*) require you to have the mandatory license or registration for the occupation, have at least IELTS 6.0 band in each of the four skills (writing, reading, speaking, and listening) OR the English level required to meet the licensing or registration requirements.
Similarly, occupations marked with double exclamation marks (!!) require you to have high-level communication skills.
All other occupations require applicants to have at least IELTS 6.0 band in each of the four skills or an equivalent score in another English test accepted for Australian migration purposes.
