Temporary Graduate Visa Australia
The Graduate Visa Australia (Temporary Work Visa) is an excellent opportunity for international students who have completed at least two years of study, whether in Australia or abroad. This visa allows graduates to live and work in Australia for a duration ranging from 18 to 48 months, depending on your qualification and where you studied. There are three key streams under the Temporary Work Visa: the Graduate Work Stream, the Post-Study Work Stream, and the Skilled Recognized Graduate Stream.
On average, 75% of Graduate Visa Australia applications are processed within 11 months, offering a relatively fast pathway to work rights in Australia. For eligible British nationals or Hong Kong passport holders, the visa duration may extend up to five years, providing even more time to gain work experience in Australia.
If you’re considering applying for a Temporary Work Visa under the Graduate Visa Australia program, Target Visa Consultancy can guide you through the entire process. We help ensure you select the right stream to match your qualifications and maximize your opportunities for success in Australia.
