Student Visa Process

 Step 1: Attend a counselling session

Attend a counselling session at your closest branch to find out your options relating to study destination, courses available and recommended institutions.

 Step 2: How to Register

Register with Fastway Immigration to start the admission and visa process. We can help you navigate through the various processes and make studying overseas easier. Remember, all our services are free of charge!

 Step 3: Apply for admission

Once you have decided what and where you want to study, we will help you complete the application to the institutions of your choice. At the time of application for admission you will be required to submit several documents including proof of previous academic qualifications and in most cases proof of your English language ability. We will also provide you with a checklist for the documents you will need to provide when the time comes to apply for your visa (step 7).

By submitting your application through us you will be able to track the progress of your application as we send you automatic notifications of its progress. We also take the hard work out of tracking the applications by keeping in contact with the institution on your behalf.

 Step 4: Pay tuition fee

To accept your offer from an education provider, you must pay the tuition fee. Most Australian institutions require you to pay the first semester fee only. You can choose to pay this fee through either Telegraphic Transfer (TT) or Direct Debit (DD). Our value added services department at Fastway Immigration can help you arrange either of these payment methods.

Once the institutions have received and processed your tuition fee payment, they will issue you with an Electronic Confirmation of Enrolment (ECOE). Once we have received this, we will notify you that it is now time to come back into your closest branch with your required documents and start the visa application process.

 Step 5: Visa lodgment

To lodge your visa application you will need to provide the documents outlined in the checklist we provided you in step 3.

Just like your admission application, Fastway Immigration will keep you updated as to the progress of your application and take the hard work out of tracking your application by keeping in contact with the visa office on your behalf.

 Step 6: Undertake Medicals

Within 28 days of lodging your visa application, you will need to undertake a medical examination by one of the doctors approved by the Australian Government. A list of the approved panel doctors can be found by visiting: http://www.immi.gov.au/contacts/overseas/i/india/panel-doctors.htm. Once you have undertaken the medical examination, your doctor will forward the medical reports and documents directly to the visa office.

 Step 7: Visa outcome

We will notify you as soon as we know the outcome of your visa application so you can come in and collect your grant letter. In most cases this is a positive response and it means you can also start planning your travel and accommodation for Australia!

 Step 8: Travel services

At Fastway Immigration we can help you organize your travel arrangements to begin your new student life in Australia. Air ticketing, insurance and foreign exchange can all be arranged through us to make studying overseas easier !

Work rights during studies

 Work rights during studies While on a student visa, students can work a maximum of 40 hours per fortnight when course is in session and unlimited hours during vacations. International students studying master’s degree by research or PhD degrees can work unlimited hours.  Work rights for your spouse The spouse of a student can work a maximum of 40 hours per fortnight throughout the year if the spouse has travelled to Australia on a dependent visa. If the student is studying at a Masters or PhD level, spouse can work full-time once the student starts their main course.

Bringing your dependents

 The spouse and children of a student can accompany them to Australia if the student’s course duration is 12 months or longer. This dependent visa can be applied for at the same time as the student applies for their visa, or you can apply later to join the student in Australia after they have commenced their course. Student must declare all family members in his/her application, even if they do not plan to travel with him/her to Australia. If he/she does not declare all family members in his/her application, they will not be eligible to apply for a dependent visa once the student has arrived in Australia. At Fastway Immigration we can help you apply for a dependent visa for your spouse and children
