Student visa to travel to Australia: Learn about the new amendments




Learn about the Australian Government's new student visa requirements for travel to Australia, effective 1 July 2016.

Overview of modifications
The Australian Government has approved the simplified student visa framework (SSVF) as of 1 July 2016. The framework is designed to facilitate the process of applying for an Australian visa for students wishing to travel to Australia by facilitating the search for students  and provide a more targeted approach to standardizing migration and reducing red tape.

Here are the highlights of the new changes:
Single migration risk framework (financial requirements and English language requirements)
The Single Immigration Risk Framework applies to all international students, replacing previous visa controls and evaluation-level frameworks.

Simplified proof of proof
According to the simplified student visa framework, students who are associated with the lowest risk of migration will generally be required to provide simplified proof requirements. This means that these students will have to satisfy the Australian Government in terms of their financial capacity by providing proof of that ability as well as providing an Acceptance Confirmation letter showing the fulfillment of the English requirements required by the institution to which they are enrolled in Australia.

Financial capacity
According to the simplified visa framework, students applying for a visa must have financial resources available to finance their stay in Australia. Students who are associated with a higher risk of immigration application - based on their country of origin and the products of the immigration application collected from the institution in which they are enrolled - will generally be required to provide documentation proving their material capacity within the visa application.

International requirements for English
If English proficiency is required, the IELTS score will be accepted as follows:
The total of the IELTS 5.5 test
A total of 5 IELTS scores in case of intensive English language study for at least 10 weeks
A total of 4.5 IELTS scores in the case of Intensive English for at least 20 weeks

Proof of enrollment in an institution
International students from outside Australia must provide proof of enrollment in an accredited course, the so-called confirmation letter, when applying for a student visa to study in Australia.
