Temporary Graduate Visa

mcg143

Hello everyone,

I'd like to know if many of you have applied for this visa after graduating, which is of course not applicable of you are already on a working/PR visa. Is it easy to apply for this or more challenging? Thanks.

Hi, this visa is easy to apply as long as you meet the requirements which is the minimum Australian study requirements and within 6 months after your course have completed.

@agentKams have you applied for this visa? I am planning to apply for student visa taking advanced diploma for two years and after that I am planning to apply for temp grad visa but i think it depends on the points?

agentKams

@ailahbelen12 hi. will be lodging next month. this is not points-based visa, you need to satisfy the study requirements to avail this.

ailahbelen12

agentKams

@ailahbelen12 for the post graduate stream it depends, bachelor and masters nasa 2 years, iyong graduate skilled ang 18 months. yes, you can actually apply for PR as you hold this visa.

@agentKams yung hospitality ba kasama sa sol list? ang dami ko kasi nababasa sa pinakasite sa border.gov may short saka long di ko alam kung ano don e. baka pag nagapply ako hindi ako matanggap for temporary kasi sa sol list

agentKams

@arc123 hi, you need to satisfy the Australian study requirement for your Masters ( 2 years study or 16 months/92 weeks minimum study as per CRICOS): https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/trav/visa-1/485-?modal=/Visas/supporting/Pages/485/Australian-study-requirement.aspx before you can get the visa. so hindi enough iyong 1 year lang na study.

sa tafe courses same, you need to satisfy the Australian study requirement before you can apply the temporary graduate visa and nominate skills on the MLTSSL - graduate work stream. so need your courses to be aligned with the occupation you will be nominating after.

Else, get work sponsorship if you can after you graduate.

@ailahbelen12 sorry po not sure with hospitality. for the temporary visa - graduate stream they need the occupation to be in the MLTSSL - https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/trav/work/work/skills-assessment-and-assessing-authorities/skilled-occupations-lists

@agentKams sa short list lang po ata included so pano po hindi po ako makakapagapply pala. What visa can I apply po? pwede po ba working holiday visa? without leaving the coutnry?

agentKams

@ailahbelen12 alam ko po hindi kasama ang Philippines sa working holiday visa na program nila. try to seek work sponsorship if you can, or try to check 489(temporary visa)/190 (state sponsored) visa though this will take a lot of time and might require you to have another visa while onshore.

Hello sa mga nakapag-apply na ng temporary graduate visa, need pa ba ng nbi clearance? Or police clearance lang from AU?

agentKams

@yani1127 isa sa requirement ang AFP, so better get it ahead before you lodge kasi may chance na madeny daw if the day you apply for AFP is later than the day you apply for the 485 visa.

nope, hindi na kami hiningan ng NBI. we lodged last Feb 2018 lang.

@agentKams thanks po sa info.
