Student Visa Including family

anzone

We are planning to get a student Visa (postgraduate). Pero gusto ko isama yung wife ko and 3 kids. 2 daughters will study primary school. Any advice po?

1. School fees and heath insurance?
2. May discount ba ang mga students if i will take postgrad school.
3. Ano po ba bridging visa for student?

Need help.

Hello po, based sa experience if you have school-aged childred, they will also be international students not unless you are an Australian government scholar (Ausaid).

1. School fees = $12k/yr each student
health Insurance = you can check for quotes on oshc websites (Allianz, AHM, NIB, BUPA, Medibank etc)

2. Wala pong discount, all school aged children will be charged as international students because the main visa holder is a student visa holder.

3. Wala pong bridging visa for student. Bridging visa is issued to those who are in Australia who have applied for another visa while holding a valid substantive visa. (https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/trav/visi/visi/bridging-visas)

Hi @agentKams kahit ba mag opt to a public school same pa din po ang fee? Kasi granted na visa ko. Balak ko kuhanin ung husband and 2 daughters ko. One is school-aged na. Bka mkshare naman po kayo ng tips jan like sa gte. Maraming salamat po..

agentKams

@aspirant0508 especially po pag public school kasi government-funded sila, kaya international fees din ang applicable dahil hindi resident or citizen iyong mga bata.
GTE po para kanino? visa grant na kayo right?

How much kaya possible na tuition fee ms @agentKams ..pwede kaya installment din un? Nkavet course lang kasi ako and valid visa ko for 2 yrs. Balak ko po sna ihabol anak ko for january intake next year. Sydney po ako papunta. Salamat po infos..

@agentKams mam pwede ulit magtanong po. Ung first born ko kasi turning 5 sa october. But since and kinder sa au magstart po db ng 5. Pwede ko kaya sya iapply by september kahit na di pa ako nksecure ng coe for her since ang start po ng class ay january. Salamat po in advance.

agentKams

@aspirant0508 5 years old po, prep na dito, iba po iyong kindy. bale pag 5 na iyong anak niyo, school-aged na which means kelangan na niya pumasok sa big school. bale prep po iyong tawag nila dito. sa qld, ang rules nila dapat 5 siya by june 30, since september siya hindi pa siya required pumasok sa big school. iyong kindy naman, hindi mandatory kasi sa mga registered child care na may kindergarten program lang sila ipapasok. san po kayong state sis, iba iba kasi iyong cut-off nila eh.

aspirant0508

Salamat sis. Sa sydney po. Plan ko kasi kuhanin sila after three months as per my agents advise. so sis sa kindy lang pla sya. Sa tingin mo po possible na mkuha sila after three months. Nakakatakot kasi ung framework ng visa paiba iba. Bka maabolish ung student dependent. Salamat sis sa pagsagot po..

Good Morning. Just want to check for insights kung possible po ba. Family of 5, kids ages 15, 9 and 7. Im thinking student visa pero alam ko mahirap ang setup. Ayaw ko kasi mahiwalay sa family as much as possible. I have a relative in Rockhampton na willing tumulong sakin. Appreciate any feedback and some idea sa possible expenses. thanks!

I think that all depends sa available funds niyo na, lifestyle, and of course the jobs you'll be getting with a student visa. Ang alam ko inextend na nila yung working hours for students to 48 hours per fortnight: https://www.education.gov.au/extended-poststudy-work-rights-international-graduates#:~:text=From 1 July 2023, international,to 48 hours per fortnight.

@Makuneru
Yes, my partner has full working rights
Here's the current matrix.
Undergrad/Diploma courses - both limited (now unlimited but starting July 1, 2023, 48hr per fortnight)
Masters by coursework - primary (limited) / partner (full)
Masters by research and PhD - both full work rights

@aussiedreamer
If you could search for a state that offers free studies for your grades 8 & 9 you'll be fine. May nabasa ko dati from FB forum that there are certain states that offer that. Otherwise, they are also considered as an international student and the fees are extremely high and not really recommended. I have friends holding SV who left their partner/children in Ph. They have to do necessary sacrifices until they got the graduate visa.
