kallie19 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Just wondering if anyone knows if you are a UK citizen when you apply for a student visa do you have to provide proof you have the finances to live here? I am in the process of applying to do my masters in Australia (in social work). I have enough savings to cover the course fees and health insurance and my partner will have full working rights and i will work part time so we should have enough money to live, plus fairly high credit card limits if needed! I've seen on the immi website though that they want you to have upwards of $70k which obviously we don't have! I am fairly confident if worst came to worst and we were both unable to get jobs then my family would help me out if really necessary but we both have previous australian work experience so i don't think it will be an issue. My main question is as I am from the UK, a "low risk" country will I still need to show bank statements etc proving finances or not? And if so are credit card statements showing high limits enough or does it need to be actual money in my current bank account? Thanks guys!

No, but you have to declare that you have the funds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
