Terms For Australian Student Visa Extension

However, the visa extension is only granted as long as the permit does not have the qualification of “Not Suitable for Later Stay”. If the extension of the visa is feasible if you wish to continue studying or need more time to do the Ph.D. thesis. It is necessary to request another visa. Once the first one has expired, the new one will come into force. In case you find yourself on Australian lands with another type of permit before your previous visa is renewed, you must start the process again from the beginning.

If you are about to graduate and you only need to enter Australia to pick up your certificate of studies or your undergraduate degree, it is better that you apply for a visitor visa. Generally, this type of permits is granted to tourists, business visitors, professional trainers (who are opting for a job related to training), retired people (55 and older), and people in transit, patients seeking medical treatment and event organizers. If you are applying for renewal from another country, you should expect it to be approved to return to Australia.
