Before you apply
Core requirements
- Student 500: Confirmation of Enrolment, Genuine Student requirement, identity and circumstance-specific evidence, financial capacity and English evidence when required, adequate health insurance, and health/character compliance.
- Visitor 600 tourist stream: apply and remain outside Australia for the offshore stream, show genuine temporary intent, travel purpose, sufficient funds and incentives to return.
- Skilled Independent 189: SkillSelect invitation, usually under 45 when invited, nominated occupation, suitable skills assessment, English and points threshold, plus health and character requirements.
- Use the Home Affairs document checklist for nationality, location, family composition and route; non-English documents generally need compliant translations.
Important: Australia has no single universal visa fee. Biometrics collection-centre fees, health exams, police certificates, English tests, skills assessments, translations, insurance and OSHC are separate.
