STUDY IN AUSTRALIA

Student Visas and Temporary Work Visas

Recent changes to migration laws have altered the requirements for applying for a student visa. 

 

Since these changes, irrespective of the particular field of study that a student wishes to pursue, all International Students will be required to apply for student visa subclass 500. 

 

Students must be able to establish that they are a ‘Genuine Temporary Entrant’. This is an essential criterion that applicants must satisfy to be eligible for the visa subclass 500. To meet this requirement, the student must be able to demonstrate that their financial resources and individual circumstances are such that they have little incentive to stay after completing their studies in Australia. 

 

Students must further demonstrate that they have sufficient financial resources to undertake their intended course of study in Australia. They must be able to pay for both their course fees and all other costs associated with living in Australia. All applicants must meet certain English language criteria and be able to provide a confirmation of enrolment for their registered course when applying for this visa subclass.

WORK IN AUSTRALIA

Work Visas and the Pathway to Permanent Residence

Working in Australia through employer-sponsored visas enables Australian or overseas employers to sponsor overseas workers where their labour requirements cannot be met by the local labour force. 

 

These visas may be offered to overseas workers on a temporary or permanent basis, and the potential applicant will have to meet the specific criteria as required by the particular visa subclass for which they are applying. 

 

The Sponsoring Employers themselves must comply with certain sponsorship obligations. This includes the requirement that the sponsored employee be paid at least a certain minimum threshold. Different conditions and entitlements for workers are attached to different subclasses of Employer Sponsored Visa.
