This year's Policy Address announced reforms of various aspects of the talent admission regime. The Hong Kong government announced today (1 Nov) the launch of 3 measures to enhance the Top Talent Pass Scheme (TTPS) and the Quality Migrant Admission Scheme (QMAS). The 3 measures are expanding the list of eligible universities under the TTPS, extending the validity period of the first visas of Category A applications under the TTPS to 3 years, and enhancing the assessment criteria and arrangements of the General Points Test under the QMAS. Of which, there are originally 185 eligible universities under the TTPS. To further broaden the network for attracting more top talent worldwide, 13 top Mainland and overseas universities/ institutions are added to the list of eligible universities under the TTPS starting today, making a total of 198 eligible schools. The government will, starting from today, enhance the General Points Test (GPT) under the QMAS by adopting a more objective and clear scoring criteria, and streamlining the application and selection process. The enhanced GPT replaces the original item-by-item scoring system with an assessment questionnaire. Applicants are required to confirm if they meet the 12 assessment criteria in the questionnaire under six major aspects, namely age, academic qualifications, language proficiency, work experience, annual income and business ownership, and submit supporting documents. The applicants can submit applications if they meet at least six assessment criteria. AAStocks Financial News |
