Student Visa Lawyers – Sunshine Coast & Queensland Migration Specialists

International students make a significant contribution to Australia’s social fabric and economic growth. At Just Fair Law, our Student Visa Lawyers and Migration Consultants deliver end-to-end support for Student Visa (Subclass 500) applications, visa extensions, Temporary Graduate Visa (Subclass 485) pathways, and skilled migration options such as 189, 190, and 491 visas.

Student Visa (Subclass 500)

If you’re planning to study in Australia—whether on the Sunshine Coast, in Queensland, or anywhere nationwide—this visa enables you to enrol in recognised education programs across primary, secondary, vocational, tertiary, and postgraduate levels.

To qualify, applicants must:

  • Hold a confirmed enrolment in a CRICOS-approved course

  • Maintain Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC)

  • Demonstrate sufficient financial capacity

  • Satisfy English language requirements, where applicable

  • Meet age and welfare arrangements if under 18

  • Address the Genuine Student / Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) criteria clearly and persuasively

The GTE requirement remains a decisive factor in approval outcomes. A weak explanation leads to refusals. Our team crafts targeted, evidence-driven GTE statements to align with current Department of Home Affairs guidelines.

Student Guardian Visa

Parents, legal guardians, or eligible relatives can apply for a Student Guardian Visa to accompany a student under 18 studying in Australia. You must be over 21 and able to show adequate funds to support yourself during the stay.

If you need guidance on eligibility, sponsorship requirements, financial criteria, or documentation, we provide tailored advice to streamline your application.
