Labor targets 'visa hopping' international students in migration crackdown

Original: Labor targets 'visa hopping' international students in crackdown on 'permanently temporary' migration https://www.thegua

Australia's Labor government is moving to stop international students from 'visa hopping', repeatedly switching between visas to extend their stay, as part of a broader crackdown on what it calls 'permanently temporary' migration. The policy is aimed at tightening pathways that allow migrants to remain in the country indefinitely without settling permanently, and touches on both the migration and international education sectors.

Why now: Immigration policy is under active debate in Australia as the government announces new restrictions on student visa practices.
