Some applicants may be required to demonstrate their English language proficiency by providing relevant evidence with their visa application. However, exemptions may apply to some students, although the Department of Home Affairs reserves the right to request evidence of English proficiency at any stage of the application process.

To be eligible for this visa, you need to have enough money to support yourself and any dependents for the duration of your stay in Australia. This includes covering your tuition fees, living expenses, and travel costs. It may be necessary to provide evidence of your financial capacity when you apply for the visa.

To be eligible for the visa, all applicants must meet the health requirements, which may involve undergoing a health examination. Additionally, you are required to maintain adequate health insurance coverage while in Australia. Most education providers offer Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) to their international students, but you may choose to obtain health insurance from a provider of your choice and provide the policy details with your application.

Applicants for this visa must demonstrate good character. This includes disclosing any criminal convictions, charges or outstanding debts. The information provided will be assessed to determine your character and suitability to enter and remain in Australia.

If you plan to have family members accompany you during your stay in Australia, you have the option to submit a joint application or have them apply separately at a later time.

To include your family members in your application:

• List them as accompanying family members on your application
• Provide proof of sufficient funds to support both yourself and your family members during your stay in Australia.
