Can I apply for a 189, 190 or 489 visa after a 3 year ban?

Due to my negligence, I overstayed my student visa by about a week before leaving Australia. As a result, Home Affairs gave me a 3 year ban from entering Australia. Now, my ban period is over. Can I apply for a 189, 190 or 489 visa now considering that I did not comply with the condition of my last visa (i.e. overstaying)?

I would consult with a migration agent and secure professional advice. You wouldn't want to bungle an application and stitch yourself up. In theory, there's nothing to stop you applying but equally Immi could refuse it - but an agent can help you navigate through the complexities. If Australia remains your dream, even after the overstay etc, then a little expense now for an agent will pay dividends longer term.
