Hey @igor90 would you mind sharing what you d me as I am in the same boat. My details are as follows:
- Exams end on 19th Novmeber- 2017
- Results released on 01- December 2017
- COE expires on 31st- December 2017
- Student Visa expires 01-March 2018
- Award date of degree sometime in mid January 2018
I want to travel after my exams end i.e. from 19th November 2017; I want to know till when can I travel can it be till the second week of January i.e. after my results and coe both end or should I plan to return by December end before my COE expires. My other alternative is to wait to apply for the 485 temporary visa after my results are released and then travel either on it or get a bridging visa B (though I read on the dibp website you cannot gain a bridging visa B if you currently hold a substantive visa which would be my student visa:p) Would greatly appreciate anyone's help on whether they allow rentry into Australia after coe expires but student visa is valid. Thanks
