Are you aware of the pitfalls to avoid for TGS 485 Australia Visa?

Temporary Graduate Subclass 485 Australia Visa is for overseas students who have completed their studies in Australia. Those who have completed their studies this year will have to plan their career in Australia now. They must decide whether they are looking to stay for a long term or short term.

Most of the overseas students will need the TGS 485 Australia Visa to remain in the nation. Below are pitfalls that they must avoid:

Applying for the incorrect 485 Visa subclass:

There are 2 streams in the 485 subclass – Graduate Work and Post Study Work. If you apply in the wrong category, the 485 Australia Visa can be denied. Even if it granted the duration can be reduced to 1.5 years in place of 2 or 4 years. This cannot be typically reversed, as quoted by the SBS.

Not adhering to the criteria for the time of application:

Diverse requirements must be fulfilled while submitting the visa application. It includes the provision of supporting specific evidence. If these documents are not offered while the visa application is submitted, it will be rejected.

Australian Study requirement not being fulfilled:

Overseas students might have spent some time outside of Australia. This could be for a holiday or returning home to complete an internship. Such students may be at the risk of not fulfilling the study requirement of 16 months. Their 485 Visa application can be immediately refused.

485 Visas can be filed only within Australia:

The Home Affairs Department can cancel your Student Visa without notice if you exit Australia at the completion of your course. In this case, you cannot arrive in Australia unless you get another kind of Australia Visa. It is thus recommended that you file the application for this visa prior to exiting Australia. This will also demonstrate your intention to return.
