485 Post study Visa Extension – eligible courses

The Government has extended post-study work rights to give eligible international higher education
graduates with select qualifications an additional two years on their Temporary Graduate visa (subclass
485).
Post-study work rights for select degrees in areas of verified skill shortages will be increased from:
• Two years to four years for select Bachelor degrees
• Three years to five years for select Masters degrees
• Four years to six years for all doctoral qualifications.

To implement the extension, lists of occupations in demand and related qualifications were developed through a mapping process undertaken by Jobs and Skills Australia and the Department of Education.

This document comprises:

• A list of identified occupations from the 2022 Skills Priority List, and
• A summary list of eligible qualifications by occupational category.

All doctoral studies are considered eligible for the measure, regardless of field of study and so are not listed individually.
