Student Visa

Have you thought about working with registered migration agents, to assist with your university applications in Australia? 

Many international students do. In Australia, three quarters of overseas students were referred to their universities by education agencies.

There are many factors for international students to take into consideration, such as choosing a course, securing a visa and finding lodging. Our student visa consultants in Melbourne offer assistance throughout this complex process.

Student visa consultants can assist you with applying to study for an Immi student visa. Our student visa services can guide you through the application process and provide you with up-to-date information on universities and programmes.

Always make sure to offer accurate and comprehensive information on your visa application form. Your student visa consultant Melbourne can assist with preparing your academic and employment history, as well as information about character, health and travel history.

Another factor is the GTE Statement. The Student Visa is a Temporary Visa, so you have to demonstrate a temporary intent to stay in Australia at the time you apply. Part of your application is showing that you are not attempting to exploit a student visa to get permanent residency or to remain in the country, but rather that you are truly interested in studying in Australia and benefiting from its world-class education system. For this, you should show how the course relates to your prior learning and/or professional experience, or if you are studying for a career change, provide a compelling case for how your studies support your career goals. This could include discussing job prospects in your home country, related to your field of study.

You should also meet character requirements and show proof of having sufficient funds and health insurance coverage.

Finally, it’s important to meet all your deadlines in submitting your application.

Relying on the expertise of a student visa (Australia) migration agent can help you to put together the best visa application you can. For more information on what you should do to obtain your student visa, contact an Immi Smart student visa consultant in Melbourne.

Most visa applications are processed in 6 to 8 weeks. However, it depends on the application.

Your study visa consultant Melbourne will advise submitting student visa requests at least 6 to 8 weeks before the start of the course, to make sure the visa will be approved before you commence studying.

If you are already in Australia when you apply for a student visa, you could be qualified for a bridging visa. As our study visa agents in Melbourne will show you, a bridging visa would allow you to remain in the country while the student visa application is being processed.

Your study visa consultant in Melbourne can confirm how long your visa is valid for. A visa will typically be valid until the 15th of March of the following year, for study in Australia in a programme that lasts longer than 10 months and ends at the conclusion of an Australian academic year.

Please contact our student visa agent (Melbourne-based) for more student visa advice and education services.

When applying as a student visa holder, you will have to show the Australian government that you have the financial capacity to pay for your higher education, living and travel expenses.

A study visa consultant can assist with documentation proof. Our student visa agents in Melbourne can help show that you have enough money to cover:

• course fees for the first 12 months of the course.
• living expenses for the first 12 months, or for the duration of study if the course will take less than 12 months.
• travel costs, depending on whether you are applying from within Australia or elsewhere in the world.
