Student visa FAQs
Questions students commonly ask before preparing a subclass 500 application.
What is the Student visa subclass 500?
The Student visa subclass 500 is for eligible applicants who intend to study in Australia. The course, Confirmation of Enrolment, financial evidence, health insurance, visa history and Genuine Student evidence should be reviewed.
What is the Genuine Student requirement?
The Genuine Student requirement looks at whether the applicant is genuinely seeking to study in Australia. Course choice, circumstances, study history, career benefit, immigration history and supporting documents can all be relevant.
Do student visa applicants need OSHC?
Most student visa applicants need adequate health insurance for their stay. Nestway can provide general OSHC information and link clients to provider options, while visa advice depends on the applicant's circumstances.
Can I apply after a previous refusal or study gap?
A previous refusal, cancellation, study gap or course change does not always stop a future application, but it should be carefully reviewed and explained with evidence before lodging.
