Achieving higher life satisfaction is one of the main reasons for migration. Using cross-sectional survey data, this study explored the life satisfaction of 306 Indian and Sri Lankan skilled migrants employed in Australia. The results indicated that the life satisfaction of the participants was slightly above the Australian normative standard. Achievements in life, standard of living, feeling part of the community, and personal relationships were important domains in participants' lives. There was no relationship between life satisfaction and gender, ethnicity, age or level of education in this skilled migrant sample, but English language skills and years since migration were related to life satisfaction. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that Sri Lankan and Indian skilled migrants are satisfied with their lives in Australia and consider Australia a safe country in which to live.
