No. This checker provides a general indication only, based on the information provided, and does not constitute legal advice.

This depends on the stream. The Post-Vocational Education Work stream requires your qualification to be closely related to an occupation on the relevant skilled occupation list. The Post-Higher Education Work stream does not require a specific listed occupation, but other course and qualification requirements still apply.

In limited circumstances, yes, but there is a cap on the total number of Subclass 485 visas a person can hold. Whether a further application is available to you depends on your visa history and which stream you are applying under.

Yes. Your qualification must be from a CRICOS-registered course, completed while you held a visa authorising you to study in Australia. Qualifications from institutions or courses outside this registration do not satisfy the study requirement.

You generally need to lodge your application within 6 months of completing the qualification that meets the visa's study requirement. You must also be in Australia at the time you apply, this visa cannot be applied for from outside the country.

Yes. The general age limit was reduced to under 35 at the time of application. Specific exceptions allow Hong Kong and British National Overseas passport holders, and Masters (Research) or PhD graduates, to remain eligible at an older age. Age is assessed at the date your application is received, not when you graduated.

The Post-Vocational Education Work stream is for applicants with an associate degree, diploma, or trade qualification linked to an occupation on the relevant skilled occupation list. The Post-Higher Education Work stream is for applicants with a bachelor's degree or higher. Which stream applies depends on your qualification level, not your personal preference.
