This Australian visa allows students to stay in the country for the duration of their chosen course. Student visa also allows holder to get in and go out of Australia multiple times. Students who bring dependent family members to Australia usually stay the same length of time as the students. However, the dependents cannot stay in once the student has left.
The Australian Government introduced the Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) requirement to address whether the individual circumstances of an applicant indicate that their intention is for a temporary stay in Australia.
Student visa applicants must address Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) and be a genuine student to be granted a visa and satisfy student visa criteria at the time of application and decision.
