By extending your stay in Australia immediately after graduating from an Australian institution, the Temporary Graduate Visa, often known as the 485 Visa allows you to take advantage of further opportunities that may come your way. This will also permit you to do your job on a full-time basis without any legal limitations. Additionally, a Temporary Graduate Visa in Australia enables overseas students to complete their Professional Year (PY) in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, any other Australian city where they reside.

Let's consider a few benefits of fresh graduates obtaining a Temporary Graduate Visa:

  1. Temporarily reside, work, and study in Australia.

  2. Duration of stay 18 months to 5 years.

  3. Apply for family members.

  4. No travel limitations.

Graduate Work Stream vs Post-Study Work Stream Visas

Here is a breakdown of the two streams that make up a Temporary Graduate Visa:

  1. You can apply for a Graduate Work Stream Visa after earning your degree from an Australian institution, which would allow you to stay there for additional 18 months.

  2. Graduates of higher education programs from Australian universities are eligible for Post-Study Work Stream Visas if they choose to remain and work in Australia for more than 18 months. Mainly, depending on your qualification, you are often permitted to stay for up to 2 to 4 years.
