1 Jul 2024: New Visa Prices: Student Visa Price Increase to A$1600 in Australia

🇦🇺 From July 1st, 2024, new visa fees have been introduced by the Australian Government. Student visa prices have increased to $1600 AUD, and the price of other visas, including Working Holiday visa have also increased. Here’s a breakdown of the new visa fees and what they mean for you:

Starting July 1, 2024, these are the new visa fees in Australia:

  • Student Visa: Now $1600 (previously $710)
  • Student Visa with Dependent (over 18): Now $1190 (previously $530)
  • Student Visa with Dependent (under 18): Now $390 (previously $175)

  • Tourist Visa (lodged in Australia, 600): Now $490 (previously $475)

🔄 Why These Changes?

The Australian government has adjusted these fees to better reflect the value of education in Australia. Minister for Home Affairs Clare O’Neil stated, these changes “will help restore integrity to our international education system, and create a migration system which is fairer, smaller and better able to deliver for Australia.”

📌 Planning to study in Australia?

We know this news can be overwhelming. Here’s what you need to know:

  • Work Opportunities: International students can work part-time (and full-time during breaks).
    • Good news: From 1 July 2024, the National Minimum Wage has increased as follows:
      • Permanent employees: $24.10 per hour, or $915.90 for a 38-hour week (before tax).
      • Casual employees: $30.13 per hour (includes a 25% casual loading).

12 Jun 2024: End of “Visa Hopping”: New Rules for Visitor Visa and TGV Holders Applying for Student Visas

🇦🇺 Australia is tightening its student visa rules to prevent “visa hopping”. Visitor Visa and Temporary Graduate Visa holders will no longer be able to apply for Student Visas onshore.

Starting July 1, 2024:

  • Visitor Visa Holders: Can no longer switch to a Student Visa while in Australia.
  • Temporary Graduate Visa Holders: Can no longer switch to a Student Visa while in Australia.

This change aims to prevent “visa hopping, where people move between visas without genuine intent to study.

🔄 Why These Changes?

Home Affairs Minister Clare O’Neil announced these changes aim to ensure Australia has a migration system that delivers the skills needed and closes loopholes in international education. The goal is to improve the quality and integrity of education in Australia and keep track of migration.

📌 Planning to study in Australia? Here’s what you need to know:

  • Plan Your Study Path in Advance:
    You can no longer make a last-minute decision to study if you are in Australia on a Visitor or Temporary Graduate Visa.
  • Visiting Campuses:
    Previously, you could use your Visitor Visa to visit colleges and explore study options. Now, you need to leave Australia to apply for a Student Visa. This will make the process more time-consuming and expensive.
  • Studying on a Visitor Visa:
    You might still be able to study on a Visitor Visa for a short period, but this may not be the best option if you plan to stay longer in Australia.
  • Impact on Current Students:
    If you’re already in Australia on a Visitor or Temporary Graduate Visa and planning to switch to a Student Visa, contact us.

9 May 2024: Changes to Financial Requirements starting May 10

Australia is updating its financial requirements for student visas, effective May 10, 2024.

Here’s what you need to know: Starting May 10, 2024, Australia has increased the funds required for student visas to align with higher living expenses, manage migration effectively and protect the integrity of the international education sector.

🔍 What is the financial capacity requirement?

To obtain an Australian student visa, you must meet a list of requirements. For example, you may need to show that you can cover your travel, course fees and living expenses while you are in Australia. This ensures that you won’t face financial difficulties during your studies and helps you to focus on your education.

🔄 Why the change?

Australia updates its financial requirements regularly, with the latest revision effective from October 1, 2023. These updates aim to 

  • Better manage migration
  • Maintain the integrity of the international education sector
  • Align with the increased cost of living and ensure that students are able to cover their expenses during their stay, preventing financial hardship and reducing the need for excessive work.

Overall, the updated visa rules reflect Australia’s commitment to welcoming genuine students who can fully benefit from its world-class education system, while effectively managing skilled migration. The country remains committed to maintaining its reputation as a premier study destination.

⏰ When’s it happening?

From May 10, 2024, new applicants must adhere to the updated financial capacity requirements. Applications submitted before this date will be exempt from the new rules.

💰 New financial requirements

The below financial requirements have been updated.

  • primary applicant = A$29,710 (previously A$24,505)
  • spouse or de facto = A$10,394 (previously A$8,574)
  • dependent child = A$4,449 (previously A$3,670)
  • annual school costs =  A$13,502 (previously A$9,661)
  • annual income with no family member = A$87,856 (previously A$72,465)
  • annual income with family member = A$102,500 (previously A$84,543)

Not sure how this affects you? Get in touch with us! We can help you calculate the exact financial requirements based on your specific situation.

🧡 Also, no worries: Not everyone has to prove this full amount. The best way to find out if this requirement applies to you, or if there are ways to meet it more easily, is to talk to one of our expert advisors.

💡 How to meet the requirement?

Provide evidence of real access to funds, such as bank statements, loan agreements, scholarship letters or income statements. The aim is to confirm that you will be able to support yourself in Australia without hardship or excessive work.

1 May 2024: Changes coming to Australia’s Temporary Graduate Visa Program in July 2024

The Australian government recently announced pending changes to the Temporary Graduate Visa Program, part of the 2024-2025 Migration Strategy. These changes aim to strengthen Australia’s migration system by attracting and retaining high-quality international students. The changes are set to take effect on July 1, 2024, pending final government approval.

🎓For international students and graduates, these visa policy adjustments have significant implications on post-study work rights and career pathways in Australia. We break down key adjustments so you can understand exactly what’s changing and how it may affect your plans.

🌟Don’t fret – the TGV program still gives you plenty of time to make the most of your Australian adventure and will allow most applicants to stay in Australia for up to 3 years after completing their studies – read below for more details and exceptions.

📋Key Takeaways

Here’s what’s changing from July 1st, 2024:

  • Graduate Work stream becomes Post-Vocational Education Work stream with a max age of 35 for most.
  • Post-Study Work stream becomes Post-Higher Education Work stream with a max age of 35 for most.
  • Second Post-Study Work Stream becomes Second Post-Higher Education Work Stream.
  • Students studying certain degrees, will no longer be eligible for the 2-year extension on top of the standard stay allowed by the TGV program.
  • Length of stay now varies depending on the achieved degree and nationality.
  • The Replacement stream (Covid-19 related) will disappear entirely.

All changes are pending government approval and might be subject to change. For more details, head to the Government’s official Statement and the Department of Home Affairs website.

📅 When Do Changes Take Effect?

  • Effective date: July 1, 2024, marks the start of the revised temporary graduate visa program.
  • Transition Period: Until June 30, 2024, the current program and post-graduation work arrangements will remain unchanged.

🔍Changes: Explained

Graduate Work Stream Changes
  • Name: From July 1, 2024, it will be called the Post-Vocational Education Work Stream.
  • Age Limit: Most can apply up to the age of 35, but if you’re a Hong Kong or British National Overseas passport holder, you can apply up to the age of 50.
  • Study Requirements: Education requirements remain the same. Stick to associate degree, diploma or trade qualifications that match your area of work on the MLTSS List.
  • Length of Stay: Length of stay also remains unchanged at up to 18 months for most. Hong Kong and British National Overseas passport holders may be eligible for up to 5 years.
Post-Study Work Stream Changes
  • Name: The Post-Study Work stream will be renamed the Post-Higher Education Work stream starting July 1, 2024.
  • Age Limit: The age limit will be reduced from 50 to 35 years old, except for Hong Kong and British National Overseas passport holders who can still apply until age 50.
  • Study Requirements: Education requirements remain the same. Applicants must hold a degree level qualification or higher, such as a bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral degree.
  • Length of Stay: The length of stay permitted will change as follows:
    • The 2-year extension for “select degrees” will be terminated.
    • For all applicants except Indian nationals:
      • Bachelor’s (including honors): up to 2 years
      • Master’s coursework: up to 2 years
      • Master’s research and Doctoral degrees: up to 3 years
    • Hong Kong and British National Overseas passport holders may stay up to 5 years
    • For Indian nationals:
      • Bachelor’s: up to 2 years
      • Bachelor’s with first class honours in STEM: up to 3 years
      • Master’s coursework and research: up to 3 years
      • Doctoral degrees: up to 4 years
Second Post-Higher Education Work Changes
  • Name: The Second Post-Study Work stream will be named Second Post-Higher Education Work stream
  • All other eligibility conditions for this stream will remain unchanged.
Select Degree 2-Year Extension

One of the major changes announced for the Temporary Graduate Visa Program is the termination of the ‘select degrees‘ 2-year extension option.

This means that you can no longer extend your post-graduate visa by an extra 2 years on top of the permitted stay, regardless of your field of study.

Before, graduates in fields such as engineering and education could snag up to 4 years post-study. Now they will have to stay within the standard post-graduate visa lengths. Bachelor’s holders are limited to 2 years after their studies, while Master’s holders get 2-3 years, depending on their program.

So while the bonus years may be over, there’s still plenty of time to make the most of your Australian adventure through the TGV program.

Replacement Stream Terminated

This visa is for current and former Temporary Graduate visa holders affected by COVID-19 travel disruptions. The Australian government has decided to end the Replacement Post-Study Work stream of the Temporary Graduate visa starting July 1, 2024.

The Replacement stream currently allows recent graduates who lost time on their original visa due to COVID-19 travel restrictions to remain in Australia for an additional 12 months after their initial Temporary Graduate visa expires

🚀 What’s in it for you

While things are changing, there’s still plenty of time to make the most of your Australian adventure through the Temporary Graduate Visa Program. Most applicants will be able to stay in Australia for up to 3 years after completing their studies, with exceptions, depending on their chosen program and nationality.

25 Mar 2024: Changes to Australia Student Visa – GTE replaced by GS

🇦🇺 Breaking News: GTE Replaced by GS for Australian Student Visas, starting March 23, 2024! 🎓

📢 Stay up-to-date with the Latest News Today: From 23 March 2024, significant changes are coming to Australian student visas. The Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) requirement will be replaced by the Genuine Student (GS) assessment.

🔍 Dive into the details: The GS requirement aims to identify students genuinely seeking quality education in Australia without future migration intentions. The new GS assessment will include targeted questions covering various aspects of applicants’ circumstances, study choices, and reasons for selecting Australia.

📋 What’s changing? Changes include amendments to the Student visa application form, such as replacing the 300-word statement. Get ready for a new set of questions painting a clear picture of applicants’ backgrounds and intentions. Answers must be written in English. The maximum number of words per question is 150.

  • Current circumstances: Family, community, employment, and economic ties
  • Course choice explanation: Reasons for choosing Australia and the specific education provider
  • Course benefits: Advantages for the applicant after completing the course
  • Study history details for past Australian students
  • Reasons for applying for a Student visa for non-Student visa holders
  • Additional relevant information as desired by the applicant

🗣️ Applicants must support their claims with solid evidence of previous studies, current employment, living arrangements and economic circumstances. The Student Visa Declaration will also be updated to ensure that applicants understand their obligations and the limited availability of post-study migration pathways.

📢 Stay tuned for further updates, including changes to the English language requirements for student visa applicants and temporary graduate visa applicants.

For more details, head to the Government’s official Statement, the Department of Home Affairs website and social media channels!

We understand that the visa application form will change. Applicants won’t be asked to write a 300-word GTE anymore, but answer specific questions related to their circumstances, study choices, and intentions. Moreover, applicants will have to support their statements with relevant proof and documents. It’s essential to proceed with caution when applying for a student visa and ensure all documents are provided in the correct format to avoid any delays or complications in the process. Share your plans with us, and we’ll guide you through the entire study experience.

23 Mar 2024: Australia Student Visa News – English Requirement Changes

🔵 Update: Changes to English Language Requirements for Student Visas and Temporary Graduate Visas in March 2024! 📚

📢 Here’s everything you need to know: The Australian Government is updating English language requirements for Student Visas and Temporary Graduate visas, starting March 23, 2024. When applying for a student visa, applicants are generally not required to provide a language certificate. The responsibility for assessing English proficiency rests with the educational institution, not the immigration authorities. Therefore, this adjustment does not directly affect the visa application process or required documentation at this time.

📝 Stay tuned for more updates through the Department of Home Affairs website and social media channels!

For Student Visas:
  • Student Visa: Minimum IELTS score increases from 5.5 to 6.0 (or equivalent).
  • ELICOS Course: Minimum score increases from IELTS 4.5 to 5.0 (or equivalent) for enrollments up to 20 weeks of ELICOS AND from IELTS 5.0 to 5.5 (or equivalent) for enrollments up to 10 weeks of ELICOS.
  • Recognized university foundation or pathway programs require IELTS 5.5.

We understand that the 0.5-point increase in the IELTS requirement mainly affects applicants from specific countries where an English test score is already necessary. There’s no indication that this change will apply to all nationalities.


Please note that immigration laws change rapidly and Go Study Australia is not authorized to provide immigration assistance. We work to ensure that our content is up to date to provide you with the correct information. If you need more information, please always refer to the Department of Home Affairs website.

For Temporary Graduate Visas (TGV) 485:
  • TGV 485: Minimum IELTS score rises from 6.0 to 6.5 (or equivalent)
  • Test validity window shortens to one year.
  • Exceptions for Hong Kong and BNO passport holders: IELTS 6.0 remains valid.

We understand that the validity of English language tests for Temporary Graduate Visa (TGV) applications has been shortened from three years to one year before applying, and the required score has been raised from 6.0 to 6.5. These adjustments are likely to encourage students to dedicate more time to IELTS preparation before applying for a Temporary Graduate Visa. Improved English skills mean more opportunities to excel in study, work, and life Down Under.

17 Mar 2024: Impact of English Proficiency on Career

💼 Recent research underscores the vital link between English proficiency and career advancement. 📚

As the regulations for student visa applicants change, stay on top of the game with your English.

📢 Here’s everything you need to know:

In a survey conducted by Pearson, an overwhelming majority (80%) of respondents in Japan, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Italy and Florida (United States) believe that English proficiency is directly correlated with earning potential. They expect up to an 80% increase in salary with strong English skills.

Career satisfaction is significantly higher among advanced English speakers, with 75% satisfied with their income and 88% satisfied with their job. In contrast, only 47% of beginning English speakers are satisfied with their income and 64% are satisfied with their job.

In addition, more than half of respondents (51%) believe that learning English opens up a wider range of career options, while 40% see it as a catalyst for faster career advancement.

As visa regulations continue to evolve, English language skills are becoming increasingly important. Not only does mastering the language open up opportunities to enroll in prestigious universities, but it also improves prospects for securing coveted job placements and a more fulfilling career and experience Down Under.

I met Elisa, my counsellor from Go Study, in June 2023 at a hostel in Sydney by chance, right after... I arrived on a working holiday visa. I shared my plan to stay in Australia with a student visa, and after a year of back-and-forth discussions, we decided that pursuing a Master's in Accounting would be the best fit for quality education and opportunities in Australia.Elisa helped me find the top universities and encouraged me to apply for study scholarships since master's programs are quite expensive. She was quick and organized in the application process, and we ended up securing the largest scholarship offered by Kaplan Institute to its students (30% off). This made a big difference financially, making the final cost comparable to other lower-quality courses in Australia.Elisa was always patient in answering my questions, even the long ones in audio messages, about visa applications, work options as a student, visa approval timelines, and she shared stories of other students to give me a better idea of the processes. She also introduced me to one of her students who became a good friend.When it was time to apply for the student visa, Elisa was thorough and gave me great advice on the necessary documents. She also suggested additional documents to strengthen my application, considering my nationality and the reputation of the college I planned to attend. Her attention to detail and guidance led to an AUTOMATIC GRANTED (which is rare for Argentinian passports, given the current processing delays of five months by immigration).I'm incredibly grateful to Elisa for her support throughout the year we worked together until I got my visa approved. I'm also thankful to Go Study for their professionalism and patience, as they provided me with a wide range of course options tailored to my profile, making me feel well-informed and supported throughout the process.read more

Professional and caring education experts.I was lucky to have chosen Go Study Australia for taking... care of my uni application and student visa considering that all my friends were unhappy with their agents for being slow, unresponsive or not professional enough.Thanks to Chloe and her team of experts they studied my situation and came up with various strategies, even though my case is a little unusual and required additional efforts and time.Chloe was persistent with universities and regularly pushed them pretty hard for faster processing of my applications which was critical to me as there were a few surprises from unis down the road and I was almost out of time before my visa expired.Considering the importance of the issue and how stressful the process of getting into uni and applying for a visa can be, I would highly recommend Go Study Australia as a friendly, helpful and professional agency for your study and visa needs.read more

Totally grateful to Elisa González for the immense support and accompaniment in this process.... Beyond the advice with everything it implies (answering questions, generating contacts, support in all letters, managing the information on the page, searching for plan Z to make this possible and more), I highlight trust, good vibes, disposition and temperance in accompanying, especially for someone who is just beginning to take their first steps in the world of traveling, where everything is new and doubts and fears do not take long to arrive. THANK YOU ELI! I hope I meet more Elis in this world, people who have that level of commitment and empathy, who deeply understand that emigrating is much more than managing a procedure.read more

I went in May to have information about student/working holiday visas.They told me that the... working was very cumbersome and the best thing was the student (obviously to sell).I went to another agency because they did not answer my questions and unfortunately I trusted them with the issue that working was a long process with a lot of paperwork and in the end it turns out that it is not so long. Too bad for me because I should have asked my new agency.Here I am with 24 hours of legal work for trusting your agent's word. Guys, do research for yourself too.Mind you, don't fall for these things, now there is a lot of information on the subject and I wish instead of going to them I had seen more things.read more

I've been an international student here in Australia for two and a half years and she helped not only with the application process but also throughout all my stay. She's always actively involved with her students and making sure they have all the information they need. I get easily distracted and tend to forget things 😅 so having Elisa there for me to remind me of everything was just life-saving. I would always be grateful for her professionalism and dedication. It's never easy to be away from home and having her accompanying me all the way definitely made it easier.
