Support Organizations Criticize Australian Immigration Amendment For Disabled Immigrants

Across the globe crippled people face many problems

, and at certain times, are even allegedly discriminated against even though such actions may invite much criticisms (rightfully so) from the concerned people and groups. Certain latest reports reveal that some advocacy units in Australia argue that the reforms made to the immigration policy of Australia recently --allegedly intended to make it much easier for the disabled overseas people to shift to the nation--do not positively address the issue even as they continue to be against the interests of such (crippled) candidates.

The Australian Immigration Minister recently disclosed that the immigration policy of Canberra would be suitably revised to enable more disabled people from abroad to shift to Down Under. Under the earlier policy, several visa submissions of the crippled aspirants were not entertained in the strong belief that such people would become a drain on the medical resources of the state. In a situation wherein an aspirants disability or disease posed a threat to cost the state AU$21,000 (13,500), a petition for permit could be dismissed.

The said rule turned-out to be very controversial in numerous cases with many visa aspirants, along with their families, vociferously arguing they would ask for no assistance whatsoever from the state in offering medical support. Still, Chris Bowen, the minister in question, the other day observed that any likely expenses a disability or ailment may invite may be counterbalanced by the benefits the immigrant would carry to the Kangaroo Land--in terms of skills augmentations and/or earnings. Though the amendment was received positively at the time, disability advocacy organizations claim that the amendment is not sufficient

Meanwhile, a concerned person for the disable people says that the system continues to be highly prejudicedthe reason being it fails to differentiate between situations. He adds that the evaluation criteria for health prerequisite are unfair as Immigration Australia evaluates disability as a medical state and/or an ailment. The primary grievance of the present policy was the lack of prudence involved in making decisions. In case medical bills had the possibility to surpass AU$21,000, a submission would not be entertained.

Even as the latest amendment goes someway to add prudence--as well as boost the threshold the group mentioned beforethe said critic continues that the immigration policy of Down Under must really learn to differentiate between disabilities and diseases. He further says that the said practice should be appropriately reformed to get rid of any type of bias against people with disabilities from the existing immigration system and laws.
