Good question my friend. As with the other answerer's, it's all about a free ride ! They pass through other country's to reap our benefits system and live the life of Riley ! If they return home they'll be persecuted. RUBBISH ! They wont fight for us but there again we haven't fought for ourselves, we've been invaded by asylum seekers and immigrant workers and we've all stood by and done nothing !

It is not necessary for you to use a migration agent to prepare and lodge your migration application for Australia. Without the assistance of an agent you will need to do all your own research which can be difficult given that you are dealing with an Australian government office.

I just got a email from a friend regarding Australia. They are having some immigrant Muslim problems. The radicals are getting out of hand. The government and citizen are dealing with it. One signs said" if you don't like our language, culture and laws get the hell out". \nA few years back they had a real Chinese illegal problem ships dumping of them. They dealt with it rather fast.They cut out chain immigration better now as family unification.\n\nThat is as much as I know on this new immigration anti terrorist issue, but I think that is about as much information that one will get. Most will probably be opinion depending on their side. I have no agenda.

If you are considering the possibility of immigrating. Well it use to be very difficult to do so unless you have a profession that is needed in Sydney. Like a Doctor or Law

Are you asking if we should send migrants home to their countries of origins if convicted of some crimes in their host countries?\n\nIf that is your question, then I would say - "Definitely Yes!"\n\nWe have our share of criminals, but they are home grown, we can't help but keep them here and simply use the law to deal with them.\n\nIt's like a parents will deal with their naughty boy but still keep him at home.\n\nBut why would you keep someone else's naughty boy at your home when he caused trouble to you while visiting or staying over?  \n\nYou would send them home wouldn't you?\n\nThe same with governments.  We should send criminal homes to their countries of origins and let them be dealt with by their legal system.  Let them eat their prison food paid by their own tax payers.\n\nI think refugees should be given first a temporary asylum visas.  Check background and then be considered for PR.\n\nIf they claimed that their papers are destroyed and their ID cannot be confirmed, well give them the benefit of the doubt but have a clause for repatriation.\n\nI think this is fair ask.\n\nWant to come and live with us, be a useful member of the community.  Want to sit on their bottoms and have plenty of time to act out their crimes, go home!

They could get asylum in sweden as there are many refugees here who come from Irak, Lebanon,Afghanistan etc; just like everything it envolves a process.The fact of a person being gay doesn´t affect under any circumstances the decisition taken by the Emigration department.

Australia has had a skilled migration program since the 1980s - the current program has been largely unchanged for the last 2 years. Australia was one of the first countries to use a points test to assess a person's eligibility for a visa - points being allocated according to the contribution the person will make to the Australian community.

I have just recently moved out of Melbourne an Australian capital city  because it is like going to Hong Kong on a daily basis.\nMelbourne as a city has several suburbs  Richmond,Footscray,\n Box Hill,  That have become almost entirely immigrant suburbs.\nBad luck to the people that used to live there before most of them have sold up and moved on.One really good joke though is that immigrants have started moving into Toorak and South Yarra\nwhere once only the very rich folks lived.\nPeople in Sydney know what i am talking about too\nAnd tonight I see the muslim mufti saying he is a muslim first not an Australian   which will probably in the papers here tomorrow\nAustralia is a very tolerent nation but i think we have had about enough \n time for the stupid goverment to stop giving our country away

If it adds new skills and techniques to our troops on handling civilians at the border, then I'm all for it. I think people should come to this country legally. Get the proper paperwork done and you can come in! It's not fair to the other people who got in legally.

I think you might of misunderstood.  I have never heard of a country deporting it's own citizens. Not recently, anyway.  England deported a bunch of it's prisoners and they formed what is now modern day Australia.  But that was a while back.  \n\nI am curious to find out if you are right though.  I can't imagine another country would accept them.\n\nAnd if they are deported to the US that doesn't make sense.  That would be like giving someone a bag of apples to punish them for stealing apples.

No. It's not worth the hassle of going thru the charade.  \nPretending for Immigration is a full time job.  You have to become a professional liar to get and keep your story straight.  Not worth it!

If a person goes out in a boat without these things, they are likely breaking maritime law and should not be in a boat.\n\nI suppose if one were familiar with the local ocean currents and weather patterns for the time of year, you could triangulate against those.
