Community Support Program over capacity: lodgement limits and EOI pause
Migration source
Correction — replaces an earlier item
In short: the Community Support Program (CSP) is over capacity, so lodgements are limited and new expressions of interest are paused.
What changed
The CSP has a set number of visa places each year. Home Affairs says it is over capacity and processing may take up to 8 years. It has limited how many applicants each Approved Proposing Organisation can lodge from expressions of interest received before the pause, and asked those organisations to stop accepting expressions of interest from new applicants.
Who it affects
People hoping to apply through the CSP, and Approved Proposing Organisations.
