KangaKit Posted January 20, 2021 Author Share Posted January 20, 2021 Hmm.bit confused..I thought parliament passed an amendment so that 491visa holders are able to be classified as domestic students? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ausvisitor Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 All of the universities are saying you need PR to be able to be eligible for a commonwealth place. Have you considered (COVID allowing) studying in the UK and having him commute home at holidays? I know lots that do this, asuming you haven't been out of the UK long enough for his eligibility to loans has lapsed it will be cheaper to pay UK home fees and flight costs than it will be to pay AUS overseas fees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
