Migrants: Unemployment rate among new Australians doubles

Islamic migration experts have blamed the sky-high unemployment rate on bosses who shun jobseekers named “Mohammad’’ and women wearing hijabs.............of course that's the reason why, silly us

* Among Middle Eastern jobseekers, the unemployment rate is an alarming 17.5 per cent
* Australia granted 15,552 humanitarian visas during 2015/16, with most given to refugees from Iraq, Syria, Myanmar and Afghanistan.
* Most Middle Eastern migrants were refugees, and English language skills were “crucial’’ to finding work.
* The number of Iraqi-born migrants living in Australia has grown by 38 per cent in the last decade, to more than 63,000. And the number of Syrian settlers is set to double after the federal government promised to take 12,000 as refugees.
* Refugees did not have to wait two years for welfare payments, like other migrants.
* Refugees receive up to 510 hours of free English language tuition and the federal government is spending $22 million on training and support for young jobseekers on humanitarian visas.
