Does that mean that some countries are easier to emigrate to?
In general it is not fair to say that any particular country is easier to emigrate to. Each country’s Immigration Policy is designed to target particular types of people. The criteria may be revised on a regular basis to reflect this. For example Hayley, a 39 year old Doctor, may be eligible to emigrate to New Zealand but would not be eligible to migrate to Australia. James, a 24 years old Carpenter comfortably qualifies for Residence in Australia but would have difficulty qualifying for New Zealand.
