How to return to China after my Australian study visa expires?

There are only two consequences of an expired Australian study visa:

1. Return to the country

The steps to return to the country are very simple:

1. Oneself Booking a plane ticket is easy, either online or by phone. Just decide on the day you want to return to your country. You can buy airplane tickets with your passport, no problem.

2. Apply for bridge visa E: Go to the immigration area website to download the 1008form and fill it out as required. There is a column to select the purpose of application, just select prepare todeparture.

3. Take the ticket issuance form + 1008 form + passport to the immigration office in person, get the number and queue up (in Sydney it is on the 4th floor, in Melbourne it is on the 15th floor). Don’t be afraid. It will take less than 5 minutes from handing in the documents to the time the immigration officer gives you a new visa, and he won’t ask you anything.

4. On the day of your flight, under normal circumstances, at the customs, an immigration officer may come to scan and archive your passport, but they will not ask any questions. Then, you can return home smoothly.

5. It should be reminded that after black citizens return to China, they cannot apply for any visa and return to Australia within 3 years. Remember this.

2. Renewal

Everyone’s visa has a validity period, especially student visas, which are often more restrictive. Generally speaking, submitting a new visa application (also known as a visa renewal) allows you to legally stay in Australia. Due to negligence, some students have not renewed their visas until their visas have expired. What should they do at this time? Don’t worry too much. In this case, the Australian Immigration Bureau will give each visa holder a 28-day “grace period”. That is to say, as long as you submit an application to the Immigration Bureau within 28 days of the visa expiration, you can still apply for the visa. Renew your student visa in Australia (note that only student visas have a 28-day "grace period" renewal opportunity, and everyone has only one opportunity in their lifetime). Therefore, everyone should pay attention to check the expiration date of their visa to avoid delaying their plans.

It should be noted that if the paper visa is submitted within 28 days after the visa expires, the students will obtain Bridging Visa E (Bridging Visa E). At this time, students can study and work in Australia legally. , live until the new visa result comes out, but in this case you are not allowed to leave the country, you can only wait for the new visa result to come out.

Prepare materials for renewal:

1. Clear scans of diplomas and transcripts of all academic qualifications completed in Australia (including language, preparatory courses, etc.)

2 , COE of a new school or extended COE of a school that failed to graduate on time

3. Non-SVP schools need to prepare deposits or study abroad loans three months before the visa expiration date (does not need to meet the three Month) Clear scanned copy or original copy. If the deposit is in the name of the parents, a birth certificate is required

4. Personal information such as domestic address, Australian address, phone number, email address, etc. are required

5. Prepare to make an appointment for a physical examination and purchase international student insurance
