Frequently asked questions (Subclass 500)

Can I include my partner or children on 500?
Eligible dependants can often be included if relationship and financial evidence are complete and consistent.
Does 500 lead directly to permanent residency?
Subclass 500 is temporary, but many students later move to graduate, skilled, or employer-sponsored pathways if eligible.
How important is the Genuine Student requirement?
It is critical. A weak or generic statement is a common refusal risk in student visa cases.
Do I need OSHC before lodging?
OSHC is generally required and should align with visa timing and policy settings.
