So, to kick off. What is the difference between permanent residence and migration?
Well, people wishing to live permanently in Australia must apply for, and be granted, a permanent visa. If you apply outside Australia, you are applying to migrate. If you apply in Australia, you are applying for permanent residence.
Simple as that.
