Its Hell! The stress, the pain and the disappointment that we are going on. Trust is lacking every way! Thanks Satya for opening up and taking what needs to be!
It is terrible what they are doing and yes our gratitude for Satya for speaking out. Still hoping for a good result to come for all of you affected
Thanks Poula :)
Vote with your wallet and feet to respond to Australian governments rejection to migrants. Let them know migrants coming to Australia is not something taken for granted. I doubt Australia will still be attractive after these years of migration reforms given the volatility of the policy and flip-flop across the government agencies and relevant bodies.
@@estellebright2579 Canada is also tightening up. The US does not offer clear pathways. Europe is already in crisis and language barrier is there. So what do you think is the other option available to people?
They know this and also know that the demand of Australia is going very strong. It is going to increase in future in fact.
@@punjabiaussie11 this is a trend worldwide currently yes. However, you also have to know every major international education market is racing to the bottom. Whoever retains the trust to international students despite adverse environment will win out in the long run, and to me Australia is showing no willingness of being part of that group. Crisis handling is tough and challenging, yet the one doing well will prevail.
Thank you Karl, many of us feel anxious and depressed. It is really unfair to leave us no transition period. It is a big decision to leave our home countries to pursue study opportunities here in Australia. This abrupt change has brought tremendous despair to many families. Hope Australian government would think twice the consequences and reputation before making such policies.
Australian government would have to think years or even decades ahead and truly weight the long term adverse consequences versus short term relief to the housing crisis. Neither Liberal nor Labor is capable of thinking like that. Fingers crossed but I would not hold my breath for that. Still, the petition will be presented to the parliament so let’s see how it goes.
In many ways there is plenty of room for them to manouver with a transition announcement so lets hope
We are the masters of coursework students who enrolled before 2024. We have been in pain, hopelessness, and psychological struggle since the announcement of the new age cap. We don't understand why the government didn't include us in the new visa like they did for masters by research. We still hope that the government will do something for us; we came here based on the promise to have access to work so we could gain work experience and be eligible for global opportunities. Thank you, Karl, for your support; it is the light at the end of a dark tunnel.
I understand it feels dark but there is pressure for the government to do the obvious right thing here and to make a complete mess of thier management. Hang in there
We are truly grateful to Karl and Satya for speaking up on our behalf. It's our hope that the government recognizes the potential harm that unjust policies can bring to the lives of so many.
Thanks for the support!
You are a good man Karl. I remember having a conversation with you just over a year ago. You gave me hope and direction whilst outlining the slim chances. Told me to persevere and it paid off. Got invited for the 491- lodged on 30 June 2023.
Very happy to hear that congratulations!
Hi Karl, After 6 years in Australia, a few degrees, research work etc, I have left Australia. I was lucky that I had an option, many dont. Thanks for your great support.
I am not 35. But I can understand how painful it would be for students who won't get to work after graduating. Almost all countries around the globe give a post-study stay back opportunity, it's hard to fathom how the govt would make such a contrasting decision.
edit: petition signed.
Thanks for signing! There decision is too crazy I know
Hi Karl, why the government is showing such a huge discrimination to masters by coursework ? these masters by coursework course graduates like nurses, laboratory scientist, social workers , biotechnologist ...etc are very indeed professionals for a country and avoiding them simply. So only research students are good for their future .why such discrimination? Really lost our trust on this government. 😔.
Atleast they could have excluded current students, then it will be so nice.
Thank you Karl for supporting and raising voice for us . ❤❤
Everyone is still hoping they will come to their senses and realise the damage they are causing cannot continue. Thanks for the support
Thanks Karl for raising your voice for them & also thanks Satya for your effort for everyone. Appreciated every time 👍
Thanks for your support and I am sure Satya is monitoring these comments
Thank you so much, Nuwan. Also, much grateful to Karl and AILS for doing what they do so consistently (an art that has gone missing in mainstream media). Hopefully all of us together will force the government to see reason and kindle their conscience.
Karl you and others around the nation who take up this cause are truly putting the country first. Thank you for everything you do and thank you for posting every week. Your program is just as important as any public affairs program we have in the country.
Thanks for that support much appreciated. It all seems an issue that is just so stupid and obvious that needs to be resolved and people needed to be treated like any Australian would expect to be treated.
Thank you Karl for being just, logical and empathic against injustice and discrimination
Hi Karl. Thank you for your videos. You are amazing. Could you please give us an update on 191 visa processing times? They seem to have a backlog again or simply change the processing times.
Thank you Karl for taking up the cause and Satya for voicing out our feelings. I had many countries to choose from, but I chose Australia; I also had much easier course to choose from, but I chose Master of IT (AI) because of how the Australian Government advertised and marketed it, saying that IT was a priority sector and I would be given 5 years of TR visa. Now forget about 5 years, the Immigration Department is not even willing to give a TR visa. If this policy does come throught then I regret falling into this fake scheme; I should not have never come here; I should have used my time and life-saving somewhere else and done something else or continued on my job; this would have been better than getting the feeling of falling for false promise and daylight ripe off. I can't believe that first-world country like Australia is trying to do something like this, it is just unbelievable. If the Immigration Department asks for something which I can change and improve, I would happily do it, but how can I change my age? It is impossible, and picking on this makes me feel so low and old, and frankly, 35 is not very old in this 21st century. I have only one semester left, but now I am just confused as to what to do, should I continue, should I quit, should I fail, so many questions. Till now, I have performed well in my academics, but this semester has been a mess, all thanks this news. Anyway, I have been here for a while, and what I have know is that Australians are good people with big hearts who believe in Australian values of fairness and equality, and I hope this government gives us at least one chance and upholds this values.
having a transition is the least they can do, but they still have alot to answer for the visa fraud of offering something they never indended to keep their promise on
Thanks. I know how you feel. The government has heaped misery on international students with this needless change. So, instead of focusing on getting "quality education", students have been forced to do their income-expense math past six months. No country has done this ever to existing students. Very fickle and ill-conceived policy.
I would like to thank you Karl for wholehearted support to raise our voice. Whereas I myself got relief with the last week update, my heart goes with thousands of students like Satya who still were left behind. I hope sense will prevail and all existing students, irrespective of their degree, will be waived off from this new rule.
Hi Karl. Neil said last year that high work experience will be preferred. But nothing reveal any positive sign. What they are doing and what they planning? All system disappointing. 😢
Politics is a dirty game even in 🇦🇺.
Politicians are making Australians think that all problems will be gone if migration is cut, just in time for upcoming elections, Federal and State (Queensland).
It is indeed a preety short minded affair using migration numbers. I don't think it will be sustainable for them to keep it up
Let them realise without immigrants they cannot keep their system working, they need our money without our money Australia will face more inflation with a lot of Australiana receiving money from Centrelink.
This is kind of similar to what happened in 2020 - Victoria shut down the PhD PR pathway without notice, leaving doctoral candidates with little hope of receiving a PR. Of course we had other visa options, but what’s the point of spending 3.5-4 (or even more) years getting a PhD when clearing the NAATI test and completing a PY gave us a better chance of getting a permanent visa? I guess the message is clear - education doesn’t matter. What matters is your age, and how much you pay in taxes…
Since the day when migration strategy was announced, I had sleepless nights and couldn’t concentrate on my studies. I am still having nightmares!!!
me the same , the visa policy changing make me feel the pricy study here is worthless
Yes too much change without thinking about the impact on those here and now benifits knowbody. Rules like these need a long phasing in period to treat everyone fairly
Agreed. They want students to study, but if mental health stress and visa stress are on students' minds, they cannot study. Students need good mental health to perform better in their studies.
Hi Karl, Could you provide an update on Visa Subclass 476?
i have applied for masters for july intake but nobody in my country got their visa granted. will it change in the upcoming weeks ?? its been more than a month.
Thank you Karl for sharing solidarity and justice for students who are impacted. The move made by the government literally lacks the substance taking us back to the uncivilised era of Stone Age.
It certainly is!. Its so embarrassing to be an Australian at the moment. I feel professionals like myself should be helping as much as they can, shame they do not
Karl, please continue advocating against the age limit for master's by coursework students. Your program has a more influential voice compared to others. The age limit for these students should be at least 45 years. Imagine two friends, both 36 years old, living together in the same room-one pursuing a master's by coursework and the other a master's by research. Having an age limit of 35 years for one and 50 years for the other creates an unfair and distressing situation for roommates sharing the same space.
Yes indeed that is very distressing and of course should not have been allowed to happen in the first place. It's not over yet!
Hi Karl I signed the petition but I am not an Australian resident or citizen so is that fine ?
Thanks for fighting with us, Karl. My heart goes out to Masters coursework students. Is there a way we can support them? We should try and speak up for them too.
Who decided that Master's by coursework holders do not deserve the 485 visa if they are older than 35? I did not have an option to choose between coursework and research when I applied two years ago. Of course, I would have chosen differently if I had known they would change the rules for current students.
Yeah I know, whoever made this decision should be sacked. We need normal human beings to run this department
Exactly, it is a ridiculous joke, how do they take decisions back and forward with no sense is just ridiculous
Thanks Karl for your ongoing support. this is clear age discrimination and unfair to those who chose Australia based on the previous rules. Many had other options but picked Australia for the promised post-graduate visa. It's shocking to see such an unjust policy here. Age is something beyond one's control, so changing the rules based on this factor makes no sense!
No it does not and you the Minister should take responsibility for inflicting so much pain on so many people.
They declared on the immigration website that applications made on or after 1 July 2024 will be assessed under new requirements in bold letters.
Thank you Karl for your continued support.
Thank you satya . I am in a similar situation to yours. I am mentally depressed. It would have been more appropriate for Australia to implement new rules for prospective students rather than those who have already begun their studies.
Yes that is the way it should have happened and still can happen
Thanks Deb. Hopefully, this will also get across the line with Karl's leadership on this and all of our efforts.
I love ur content. Really good and informative. TY u for helping us to rise our voice and displayed all the s*** that have been done by the gov
DHA has mentioned in their stat book there will be an 189 round this year before the end.
Hi Karl, watch your show every friday. My passport is about to expire in 7 months and my 190 lodged application from May 23 still in recieved status. Should i renew passport? Is it allowed?
Hey mate, what do you make of the grattan institute reformed points test ?
I’m currently on 85 points as a boat builder. Using their model I wouldn’t even be able to apply. Very troubling.
That test we circulate today is just a suggestion, not set in stone yet. Don’t worry about it too much at this stage.
Great Job Carl... in reporting and standing with us.... Satya more power to you bro. I totally understand what you might be feeling.😢
Thanks for both of us for your support!
Thank you, Imran!
Good morning, is there any update for 309 offshore Visa application
I know master research and PhD students should be given priority to stay for longer duration and have less restrictive age rules in place since universities' business model is obviously highly dependent on the research funding (where PhD students come to generate) and paying students/ scholarships from overseas. Master Research and PhD students generate the cash on both sides. But let's not forget the fact that the mature-aged students are the ones who will balance out the needs of the workforce in the trades sector, of which the Australian government always said is short. Especially those in VET sector with higher qualifications and expectations gap. Younger students apparently are more prone to get exploited due to lesser experience in maneuvering through the complexity of their career path and life. I think the Australian government is just overlooking this fact, and desperate to get a quick fix on just a few numbers.
Grattan Institute needs to touch grass. Their policy recommendations about student visas are so flawed. Didn't even take into account the particularities of Higher Degree by Research students and lumped us together with undergrads and VET people.
Sir, I appreciate your insight and hard work regarding the issue of the PSW for international students aged above 35. You have practically demonstrated your valuable experience in achieving success for international students. I hope you can address the remaining issues as well. Triple Gem bless you. 👏👏
Thanks karl i am now in pain and really concerned about this i’m 39 years old and taking master in coursework hoping to get a valuable experience in australia but i i feel him because we being dupe
I am with the perception that the 485 visa changes have been finalized. I could see a bold note at the end saying "Any applications lodged on or after 1 July 2024 will be assessed under the new requirements". Is there still a glimmer of hope for IS above 35 years of age?
It is easy to place in a transition arrangement so yes there is still hope
Hi Karl, thanks for the update, does 35 years of age or under include those who are under 36 e.g. 35 years upto 11 months at the time of application?
Looks like if you have not turned 36 that should be ok but hope a transition arrangement will solve any worry about the decision ahead of you
Thank you for keeping us updated and inspiring us! Just like Satya, I came to Australia studying for a Master's degree based on the information that I'll be eligible for 485 visa for post-study working experience, and with one year of study still ahead of me, the change to age limit hit me really hard because I am in my 40s. I don't think I'll come back to Australia to do business or travel again if I'm deprived of the rights to apply for 485 visa due to the new age limit, simply because it makes no sense to make economic contributions to a country that shows no compassion and keeps lying and cheating people.
Learning and education is age-agnostic. One believed that a "modern" Australian society would never make age a barrier. How wrong were our beliefs! Anyways, I believe most international students who are handed this blunt policy will be influencers and decision makers tomorrow. Australia should, therefore, treat them well. As a I read recently, the entire "blame international students" policy is devoid of statecraft.
Sorry to hear but of course we expect common sense to prevail. Stay tuned
Hi Karl
Thank you for the video
And Hatts off to Satya
We as international students give more than we take !!!
We have selected Australia for its history of humanity and transparency! Our studies will not be completed without the international work exposure and if it was not promised and committed at the time of our investment we would have never had selected this country for our studies.. we seek fairness to those who are already in the country and as Satya mentioned you may take these precautions to future students
We urge government to implement the grandfathering clause !!!
Yes hats off indeed to Satya!
Thanks a lot. Let us watch this space closely and aid Karl and AILS with the lead they have taken on this. For starters, international students can urge people who believe in this cause to sign the petition to take it past 20,000 signatures.
Thank you karl and satya. May i please ask for the link
Hey karl
I heard dept is going to conduct 189 round in this June. Do you think they will consider Diesel motor mechanics? as they are also thinking about construction and diesel motor mechanics are also linked with construction field I think so.
At this point anything could still happen. Stay tuned
If i start a 485 (post study work)application before july 1st, but cant complete it until after the changes are made due to completion certificate not coming until after do you know if i can keep working on that application or will it be deleted and i need to start over?
That is complicated lets hope a transition arrangment will come in to solve that issue
Thank you. The upcoming month is making me very nervous
Is there any update on the reformed points system for 189?
Not yet, stay tuned
Excellent Karl! I can't thank you more for whatever you're doing for us (The helpless/trapped/cheated international students!) Well done Satya too, well said! We really invested our life savings in Australia not to be mistreated this way, we have dreams of becoming a strong part of the workforce here after study. It would be impossible to trust this system again for the rest of the world. shame ...
Hi Karl, do you think it is possible for unused visa allocations this FY to carry over to next FY to address the backlog?
No it is not usual. It is strange they don't do that but they should
Thanks karl, and satya this gives a little positivity to all those stressed minds 🙏
Thanks, Valli. Hope in the end it turns out the way it should. No student or any human must go through this.
It's important noone should feel on their own on this issue, we are are all joining forces together
Was talking yesterday to one of the staff at my sons kindergarten, who is just finishing his studies in Melbourne to become a kindergarten teacher. He was in Sri Lanka visiting family and his wife and son were going to stay one more week. He told me his wife and sons visa's have been cancelled and now stuck in Sri Lanka. I dont know the reason for the cancellation as i dont think he understood why. The manager has found him a local Imogration lawyer so we have to wait and see what will happen to him and his family.
Sounds disturbing for them, hope it works out
I feel so depressed. Did masters and moved from Sydney to regional area and struggled to find job in regional. Now finished my PY course and did pte and skill assessment. Applied 190, 491 and 189 and waiting for 1 year in 90 POINTS. Now I applied for student visa and waiting for visa and pregnant and this is so stressful. Paid a lot of money again to apply student visa.
Hi Karl, i just finished my master degree, if I apply for 485 visa will I come under the old rules? Where i will get 5 years, after 1st July I’ll get 2 years.
Hi Karl.. I hold a multiple entry visitor visa and is valid till next year. It has a 3 month max stay condition. This year I lodged nsw 190 from offshore. I am planning to go to Melbourne on my current visitor visa to stay with my relatives there and also get my grant for 190 there itself. I have 2 queries-
1. Is there a way to extend my stay on visitor visa without have to go out of Australia every 3 months or can i switch to any other visa for a continues stay
2. How do i inform the department that i am onshore as offshore pr applicants have a first entry date while onshore don't have on their grant letters
Please book a time to discuss complex issues
thank u karl and satya for making this video ❤❤ but i do not understand what about the petition made?
Best to have a read
Thank you Karl to talk about us
I have also invested my life savings to come here to pursue my study and I have never imagined that such kind of policy change will happen in such a developed country where transparency and fairness is given top priority. Hoping for best
Yes you are right it should never have happened and we are hoping someone in the department has some decency left to do the right thing
Hello Everyone
I recently finished my certificate 3 in electrotechnology and I am international student .
I recently applied for 485 visa post graduate .
Any suggestions how to get skill assessment or fastest way to get electrical license in NSW. Any way to do skill assess.
Thanks
Greetings Carl! Is it true that there will be another 189 round before the end of this FY?
Doubtful but who knows
Thanks for your hard work. I am wandering I am studying Master business information system, is it considered as Master research?
Unfortunately not but lets hope we can sway their minds further
No, is the sort answer, but doing a Master in Microbiology that you work in research, that is in laboratory and work on a project of research. That master then leads to applying to study a PhD . What I understand what they are talking about.
Hi Karl,
What are chances for construction trades workers for coming FY?
Should be good if common sense prevails. Stay tuned
Please help us, I left my job and if masters course work don’t allowed, it is sad and breaking hearts
It's unexpected from a nation like Australia. Why can't the government provide a grandfathered clause to resolve this distress? Are we burdensome to such an extent? As a single mother who came to Australia on a student visa, I invested my hard-earned money with the expectation of a return on my investment. Otherwise, I would have been financially secure in my home country like most international students here. I trust that the current state of distress will not result in severe repercussions that could tarnish Australia's longstanding reputation in the realm of human rights.
Masters by coursework does not create new knowledge except a short dissertation. Masters by research creates new knowledge. Having said this, I do feel sorry for those who are facing financial ruin. However, I do believe pursuit of education should be an end on its own and not as a conduit for further ends e.g. migration. Study, work, gain experience and then apply for migration offshore.
Australia offers a B or C class education and markets it like A class. An Australian degree is not worth more than toilet paper in India. The only reason students would spend hundreds of thousands in Australia is if they get some assurance to stay here and recoup their investments.
I came to Australia 25 years ago when it was not so difficult. I feel sorry for these individuals getting ripped off by the Australian government.
Thanks for your video updates Karl. But honestly, I feel I have wasted my years and time here in Australia. The promises made does not add up. I was in the process of getting a sponsorship based on the old TSMIT, and since new changes are coming in soon, my sponsorship has landed in jeopardy as per the new TSMIT. Employer says they cannot adjust to the new levels given. Glad that I am leaving this country for good soon and look elsewhere.
All this finally made me realize that no matter how much glitter there seems to be abroad, own homeland is always the best. Going back with newfound appreciation for my country
Hi karl, and everyone
Implementing such a rule in the midst of ongoing programs is not only disruptive but also unfair to students who have already invested substantial amounts of time, effort, and financial resources. Many of us chose to study in this country based on the previously established guidelines, and a sudden shift in policy undermines the trust and planning that are fundamental to such a significant life decision.
While policy changes are sometimes necessary, it is crucial that they are applied prospectively, giving future students the information and choice to plan accordingly. This allows them to make informed decisions about their educational paths without having their dreams abruptly altered.
We respectfully urge the government to reconsider this decision and explore ways to implement changes without adversely affecting current students.
Thanks, Karl. We have been feeling deeply stressed and disheartened since the announcement of this policy. Firstly, this policy is completely unreasonable as it discriminates based on age. Additionally, it has completely disrupted our career and life plans. We chose our education program based on the circumstances at that time, and it feels very unfair that the Australian government can change it without reason, disregarding the impact on people who have already come to Australia and invested their money and effort.
They should not be allowed to for in reality it is a fraudulant act and must be called out for what it is
I decided to migrate to Australia because I thought their immigration laws are admirable, well-thought-out, and uncomplicated. Every time I consider the prospect that the money I put in completing a thorough EOI may be wasted, I get shivers down my spine because of the recent changes made to certain regulations without prior consultation. Karl, I sincerely appreciate you providing all of these insights and speaking for the voiceless.
Hi Karl, how much petition count can make impact ?
It all makes a difference!
Good information Karl. Will IT occupations have any chance of Invitation in next 189 invitation round?
Personally, I dont think so. However we have seen many strange things happen so who knows. Good luck
Thanks for being our voice and showing empathy! I met amazing mentors , employers and friends in Australia who I can trust but this sudden change of 485 feels like breach of trust. Could you please let me know if there is a group I could join? I'm currently doing a Master's degree by course work. Although I have a full-time job offer after completing my course, I'm uncertain if I can proceed. I had hoped for a 485 visa. Now, I feel completely lost and don't want to burden my prospective employer with visa sponsorship. This situation feels unfair and cruel; I've invested my life savings and was hoping for a return on investment.
Lets see what still unfolds and the pressure is on for a transition period
It has become a too high risk and very discourage for international students to pursuit a high degree course in Australia. Regulations have changed so much that today you make up a plan to stay, but then none of it will matter anymore tomorrow. I also get struggle for pay a course that was said to be one of the few that could lead IS for extension 485, but now again, nothing matter. The government is playing and make international student as a money bag. And now I'm pretty sure that I made the worst choice to move and study here.
what degree did you chose?
Sorry to hear that and yes this government has destroyed the trust in the system. Lets hope they realise that soon and make some reversals
@@ailsaustraliayep will stay with positive hopes
Thank you Karl and SATYA for making this video
Age cap for current students irrespective of their level of study is truely unfair, Australia government should make a provision for transition arrangements for current students
Yes indeed, there is still hope. Thanks for your support
thanks, devender!
Under the stress and pain ...with hope we came to Australia and immediately our dreams are crashed in a minute...of many choices.. Australia was welcoming and humane but depressed with loan payback... going through pain and stress... hoping for the best...in trust ...
Hope that that stress and pain can be fixed easily by the department that has the power to do so
😢
Hi Karl, You are doing a wonderful job. I have a query. Please answer.
I have unintentionally claimed 5 points in my EOI and 491 visa application.ACS has deducted 2 years of my experience which will result only 6 years of experience but I have updated my EOI with total experience of 8 years. Total points claimed in EOI is 95, but actual points as per ACS is 90.
Lodged 491 visa - 5th August 2023 with 95 points.
Occupation- Developer Programmer
ACS has considered my degree as AQf Major in Computing
And total experience is after graduation.
Please provide your input, will the visa be granted?
I have invested hardwork, time and money in the past 5 years and finally received the invite, I am afraid my unintentional mistake will ruin our dreams. Please let me know your thoughts on my query
Firstly it depends upon the state you asking 491 for. Please book a time to discuss complex matters
@@ailsaustralia it’s NT government nomination
Hospitals in Australia are in the Yellow level state of emergency and Medical degrees are masters by coursework, so while the LHNs are inviting overseas trained doctors to work in Australia, Australia trained doctors will be booted because of age.
Before you tell me about the 407 option, let me tell you I spoke to multiple LHNs who told me categorically they would prefer someone with a 485 or another visa that they don’t have to sponsor. So if you want a medical internship and you’re over 35, you may be preferred less than someone with a 189 or another work visa that can be applied from offshore
Yes I know the situation is crazy and should not be allowed to let happen. It's not over yet
@@ailsaustralia what’s even more weird is that networks are willing to sponsor a 407 for overseas trained doctors to be advanced trainees and RMOs but not Australia trained medical students for internship. They’re lit saying go anywhere and finish an internship and we’ll then invite you back here and even give you an allowance to move and work here but we won’t sponsor a visa for your internship if you don’t get a 485. I can’t wrap my head around the logic
Hi Karl, I would like to book an appointment with you in person, I could come to your office, If that possible?
I apply to study cooking and it’s been 6 months I haven’t got my visa, I been going to college.
Is it possible that I can apply for 482 in November because I will have 1 year work experience in Australia as a cook and would have also completed 8 months of study in commercial cookery, I have a sponsor who is ready to sponsor me 482.
I am onshore atm waiting for Study visa
Thanks Karl, you are really our HERO. I totally agree and admire what coming from Satya. You are the voice of international students, are being discriminated by Australia government!!!
Thanks. I hope this is rectified soon.
@@satyanarayaniyer777 Hope for all
At least the currently enrolled international students deserve a transition period for the implementation of new immigration policy. Still confident that Government will not breach the trust.
Yes they sure do deserve that as a minimum and yes too we hope there is basic humanity still there in the government somewhere to be found.
Hi Karl, I am waiting 491 visa since june 2023. Can you please explain the reason.
Your still well with the usual time frames. DOn't worry they will get to you
Satya has spoken extremely eloquently on this concern. Its certainly going to create a lose-lose situation in the long run !
Thank you!
TSML AUD 70,000 was as if not high enough for some occupations, it has Increased to AUD 73,150. Good Luck everyone.
Soon it will just oo high for most businesses
Thank you for the update always. Is it possible to fast track my mba course? I will be graduating 2026 and 10 days after the last assessment I turn 36 😢 will I still be eligible for the post study visa? Because if I fastrack it won't be 2 yrs anymore.
You can fast track it but not less than 16 calnder months. please book a t time to discuss complex issues
What's your take on the possible 189 round set to happen before FY 23/24.
The odds are not looking good for another round
Will there be 189 invitation round within this FY?
We don't expect so, lets see
Thank you Karl a lot for always fighting for us. Thank you Satya, you said what we want to say. Hope the government reconsider and make a transition for us.
Thanks. In it, together.
Waiting for over a year for the 190 visa, offshore lodged last week of May 2023, non priority. The department website does say they would be processing applications chronologically but doesn't seem to be the case, with trade occupations getting grants.
Any view on when can we expect grants?
Does this change in TSMIT apply to 491 pathway 1 as well ??
491 is not affected by the TSMIT
@@ailsaustralia but for 491 pathway 1 it says TSMIT salary level of $70000 with single employer for the past 6 months
@@GurmeetKaur-gn5thit’s for NSW own criteria only.

Thank you!
My wife is in last semester and planning to apply for 485 visa after my course completion on end of June-2024. Worst case scenario, if I do not get completion certificate .
can i apply with transcript ?
my wife on student visa, it is valid till November 2024, but she completed her study in these month( June). I want to know that can i apply for 485 visa with transcript or or other certificate because my completion certificate will come in July and from July rules are changing. If I can apply in June then I can get 5 years visa and I don’t have to give ielts otherwise from July I have to give ielts first and then apply for visa and I will get 3 years of visa. So, if you could update me with these query and advise that can i apply in June ?
Looking forward for your response.
Mr.Karl,
I am a Canadian Citizen and would like to buy a house in Australia and stay in Australia. How much money I should show at the Airport in order to stay in Australia for a long time. Is there any subclass visa for that?
Please check out the depatments page regarding visitor visas for the information you require.
Limited means the government can still change the rules if they want to. It seems that AU does not want students to stay further in AU. Isn’t we are at this mess because also of those dodgy students? I dont think that housing crisis is related to all of these. That was just an excuse from the government.
Thank you Karl. 39 yr old carpentry study here- I hope the Aussie govt changes its mind on the 485 visa so I can help build homes in Queensland post graduation!
Hi Helena yes we are hoping indeed. Your story would be good to share with everyone on the channel and those in the department watching. Please send an email t the office with your phone number if you would like to participate in a zoom inerview
Thank you Karl and Satya!
Thank you!
Thanks Mary!
Hi Karl.
Nice job as usual
Thank you again
What is the fault of master by course work? Strange
I agree raees. Whether masters phd vet and bachelors. We all contribute to australian economy.
Thanks Karl and Satya!
Thank you!
I am on a student visa but the petition asks me to declare: "I declare that I am a resident or citizen of Australia." As a temporary resident, this is true, right?
Anyone who is living in Australia is counted as a resident does not matter the visa so go ahead and sign
@@ailsaustralia Thank you guys for advocating for us.
i am over 35 and doing a master by Coursework. We submitted the last assessment last week. Fortunately the uni has made arrangements to mark our work early to help us apply for the grad visa before 1 July.
Thank you Satya for speaking on our behalf.
Thanks Neha. Hope they listen and right all their wrongs of last six months on all sub-sections of hard-working international students.
Yes very thankful he could add his thoughts and voice to the debate
