Effective from 1st July 2016, Department of Immigration have introduced a new Simplified Student Visa Framework (SSVF). Any international student who wants to come to Australia to study full-time must apply for a Student visa (Subclass 500). Under the new rules, the visa application will be assessed based on the student’s Risk Rating which is determined by the student’s chosen education provider and the country of citizenship held. You will also need to meet the Genuine Temporary Entrant requirement. This means that you must have a genuine intention to reside in Australia on a temporary basis only. This is based on your circumstances, education background, immigration history and any other relevant factors.
We are able to provide advice on your student visa eligibility and assist you with your student visa application process from start to finish.

Student Guardian visas will enable a person to accompany and provide care and support for a student visa holder who is under the age of 18 or for those who is older than 18 years of age who needs such care and support due to exceptional circumstances.
The applicant can be a parent or a person who has custody of the student, or a relative who is 21 years or older and has been nominated in writing by a parent or someone who has custody of the student.
