The process of applying for a student visa for studying in Australia in 2022

Students need to submit visas if they want to study in Australia. So how do you apply for an Australian study visa? Let's take a look at the specific process.

First, the visa processing process

There are two kinds of visas in Australia: electronic visa and ordinary visa.

Electronic Visa (E-visa) is an online application operating system developed by the Australian Immigration Department to improve the efficiency of visa approval for international students. With the popularization and use of e-visa system, more and more students choose e-visa when studying in Australia. Because e-visa is relatively faster, it greatly shortens the visa review cycle. If the applicant's physical examination is successful, it does not need to be further verified by telephone survey, which usually takes about 3 -6 weeks.

In fact, there is no fixed time for the e-visa processing cycle for studying in Australia. It is true that many visa applications are submitted within one month, and usually most judges can finish the trial within 1-2 months. It takes 3-4 months for an ordinary visa, and it is normal to receive PVA in 2 months.

The Australian Immigration Bureau officially advises all applicants to submit their materials 12 weeks in advance, and the trial period is 6-8 weeks. Don't get stuck in -8 weeks, because the visa officer's work cycle should also be considered. If it happens at the peak of the trial, or the embassy conducts internal audit or investigation on the submitted materials, the visa officer is on vacation and other factors, it is very likely that the visa period will become longer and it will take more than two months or even longer.

If the visa officer encounters a vacation, changes jobs or the last thing we want is a legal holiday, then the whole application will slow down. Therefore, it is recommended that you prepare the visa materials six months in advance and submit the application three months before the start of school as soon as possible. If you take the electronic sign, if your financial situation is relatively simple and your financial sources are more complicated, it is recommended to take the universal sign.

Second, the reasons for refusing the visa

1, suspected immigration tendency

When applying for a visa, visa officers in every country have the right to doubt whether you have "immigration tendency". Once suspected, it is possible for the visa officer to directly refuse the visa!

It is generally believed that the applicant's position and income in China are too low, which will be attracted by job opportunities abroad and it is easy to stay. You must work hard to prove that your family assets are relatively fixed. If you want to study, you can express your study plan to the visa officer.

2. The school or major does not match.

If you applied for a major in a university, but the answer you got in the telephone survey of the visa is different from the materials you submitted, then the visa will also be refused.

3. Telephone survey is not skillful.

If you don't answer the questions clearly, don't know how to answer them, or are trembling with nervousness, all these will affect your visa pass rate and even make the visa officer doubt the authenticity of your visa materials.

Three. Matters needing attention in applying for an Australian study visa

1, the visa is directly refused if the materials are incomplete.

Starting from this year, ordinary classes with incomplete application materials will be at risk of being directly refused visas, so be sure to check them clearly before finally submitting the materials.

2.GTE's point of view is clear.

GTE is a real temporary entry declaration, which evaluates the intention of studying abroad and the risk of staying in Australia for international students applying for study visas.

3. truthfully report the refusal record.

The Australian Immigration Service has expanded the scope of visa review to include not only all countries that the applicant has been to, but also the records of all family members of the applicant, whether they intend to go to Australia or not.
