Welcome to the Visa Home Page

Looking to get a Visa?

The University will need to sponsor the visa and lodge a nomination for each particular visa type. If the nomination is approved the Nominee will need to fill out and lodge an application. Please note it is the responsibility of the visa holder (not the University) to ensure that they hold a valid visa for the duration of their employment or visit.

How does a Nomination and Application differ?

Nomination

Application

    A University sponsored Nomination is required to complete an application.  

  • Completed by the University
  • Does not guarantee a Visa
  • Does not give working rights
  • Does not give rights to remain in Australia

    An application is required to apply for the appropriate Visa.  

  • Completed by Applicant or approved agent
  • Lodged by the Applicant or approved agent directly to Immigration
  • University is not authorised to complete or assist with the application
  • Is the sole responsibility of the Applicant.
