What is the Student Visa subclass 500

The Australian student visa subclass 500, or 500 visa, is a temporary visa that allows international students to travel and study full-time in Australia for the duration of their course. 

The 500 visa also grants the visa holder Australian work rights whilst studying. For most students this will be 40 hours per fortnight during term time and unlimited hours during school holidays. For students studying Masters or Doctorate degrees, they will be granted full and unlimited work rights.

Family members and partners can be included in the visa application. This means they can travel to Australia with you and will also be allowed to work whilst in Australia.

Course enrolment prior to the visa application

As one of the key visa requirements is proving you have been accepted and enrolled on a course (CoE), it’s important you spend some time researching your course options.

This will involve a lot of work and can be time-consuming, learn how Visa Jobs can take care of your enrolment and visa application.
