Skilled Graduate Visa Subclass 485 Detailed Overview
The Skilled Graduate Visa Subclass 485 is designed to provide recently graduated international students the opportunity to remain in Australia temporarily to gain practical experience related to their area of study. This visa comes in two different streams – Graduate Work Stream and Post-Study Work Stream.
The Graduate Work Stream is for international students who have recently graduated with skills and qualifications that are relevant to occupations in Australia that have a shortage of professionals. This visa lasts for 18 months, and the occupation must be listed on the skilled occupation list to qualify.
On the other hand, the Post-Study Work Stream offers a visa that lasts for two to four years, depending on the highest qualification obtained. This visa stream is for international students who have recently graduated with an eligible qualification from an Australian institution, regardless of their field of study.
