富豪们！您们要往哪儿去？
悉尼，墨尔本还是伯斯？如果您正考虑搬到前面提到的这些地点，那么您的想法跟其他已经移民到澳洲来的富豪们真是不谋而合。根据“富豪移民报告” (Millionaire Migration Report), 悉尼在2015年全球富豪移民地点排行榜里夺冠。墨尔本及伯斯则分占世界第二及第八位。
132 签证 – 百万富豪专属的澳洲永居签证
在全球竞相吸引商业鉅子移民的浪潮下，澳洲政府也祭出了类似的移民政策，以期招揽更多有商业才能的移民，并借此提振澳洲经济。身为百万富豪的您，可能同时够资格申请不止一种的商业投资移民签证。但其中唯一能一步到位为您取得永居资格的签证，就是通称商业奇才(Business Talent)的132签证。
132 签证 – 基本要求
若要在显著商业背景类别下取得本签证，通常您必须未满55 岁、有相当成功的商业投资经验背景，并能证明您在合格的生意中握有至少40万澳币的商业利益（如您的公司是上市公司，则您须持有公司至少百分之10的股权）。另一项取得本签证的方式是循风险投资的管道。，若您能从澳洲创投协会（Australian Venture Capital Association Limited，AVCAL）的会员里筹得至少1百万澳币的创投基金，则您也有可能符合申请资格。
132 签证 – 州或领地政府担保要求
要取得本签证，您必须先取得您欲迁往城市的州或领地政府的担保。
悉尼
显著商业背景类
若您也向往移入这个全球最受富豪们欢迎的移民城市，您要准备转入至少澳币3百万元来作为您的投资及安家基金。在您的商业计划书中，您必须说明 您会如何投资至少1百50万澳币到您在悉尼的事业中。此外，您必须确保您的事业将会为新南威尔斯州创造至少5个新的全职工作机会。 您的投资标的必须是地产、厂房设备、智慧财产权、存货或者是外购商誉。
风险投资类
除了满足基本条件，您还需要表明您有足够的安家基金。另外，您必须建立或加入一个在新州的事业，并且直接持续地参与打理您的事业。
墨尔本
显著商业背景类
您须备妥至少2百万澳币的投资基金外加50万澳币的安家基金。要特别提醒您的是，并非任何商业构想都能获得维多利亚的州政府担保。如您投资的行业属于被动投资、商品期货一般进出口，或者小规模的地产开发，则维州政府可能不会担保您的申请。另外，若您在维州有合伙人或者您想投资现成事业，那么您的合伙人必须向州政府另外提出申请与说明。
风险投资类
除了向澳洲创投协会会员募得至少1百万澳币的创投基金，您必须在签证激活后23个月内转入维州至少25万澳币作为您的安家基金。另须注意的是，维州政府会要求您提供一份由独立第三方准备的详细商业计划书。您亦须向维州政府说明您的商业活动将会给维州带来如何正面的商业效应。
伯斯
显著商业背景类
首先，您得在当地买一个住用房产。若您想在当地投资地产开发业，则您最少须投资澳币1百50万元，且您须确保您的事业能为当地创造至少2个新的全职工作机会。若您想投资其他产业，则您的投资门槛为澳币1百万元，且只要创造1个新的全职工作机会。
风险投资类
除满足基本要求，您最好能够证明您有足够扎实的背景，在您选定的产业运作。您也需记得，您必须是新创公司的所有者（不论是全部所有或部分所有），而不能仅仅只是员工。
