Do international students studying in Australia have to pay taxes when they work in Australia?

Studying in Australia allows international students to work tax-free for 20 hours, and they need to pay taxes for more than 20 hours.

Precautions for Australian students to work:

Students with student visas can work legally, but they need to apply to the local immigration office in Australia separately after entering the school (fee: 55 Australian dollars). When you start work, the employer will ask you to provide your tax number within 28 days.

But before leaving, students should prepare enough funds to pay the living expenses and tuition during their study. Don't expect to use the income from part-time jobs to pay for your education.

Working in Australia is affected by the recession of Australia's own economy and job market, and there are not many job opportunities. Unless students have good English ability and professional knowledge, what they can do is basic labor, and their income is also the most basic salary in the local area.

Universities have no obligation to help students find jobs, but there will be a career counseling room in universities, where students can look for job opportunities if they are interested. In addition, some job opportunities will be posted on the bulletin board on campus.

Although part-time job is a short-term job, it still needs hard work, so if you can't allocate your time reasonably, it will hinder your study progress and lose more than you gain.

Full-time international students can basically work 20 hours a week during class. You can work full-time during school holidays.

Spouses of undergraduate students can work 20 hours a week in Australia all year round; However, there are no restrictions on the working hours of spouses who are studying for master's or doctoral students.
