Based on formal arrangements between the Victorian Government and the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC), the number of visas granted to skilled migrants by the Victorian Government is limited by a quota, which for 2010/11 is set at 4,500. Each occupation listed on the State Sponsorship Eligibility List is also limited by a quota.
