BVA TAFE QLD Fees?

[samlab]

 

Hi, Please can anyone tell me if a BVA holder can study at TAFE QLD as a domestic student , not International student? 

Ive asked TAFE qld twice. First time they said yes, he’d be classed as domestic.

Now couple of months later when I’ve asked they tell me my son would be classed as international student?

The visa states permission to study?

Having permission to study and being classed as a domestic student, are two different things.

Student Visa holders have permission to study, for example, but are charged international fees.

Without PR I would be very surprised if he can get away with domestic fees.

Unless he has PR he will be an international student.

I think its a little different. If you are waiting on the outcome of a protection/ refugee / asylum visa you may be classed as domestic student on a BVA, you will need to show proof when enrolling. (State depending, not sure about qld) 

If you are awaiting an outcome on any other type of visa, you will be classed as COMMERCIAL not international, commercial rates from what i remember are slightly cheaper than international rates. 

 

edit changed.
