🚨 Major Student Visa changes start TODAY, 2 October 2026 🇦🇺
If you’re currently in Australia and planning to apply for another Student visa, or you’re hoping to bring your partner or children, these changes could affect your plans.
There are two major areas to understand:
🎓 1. Applying for another Student visa while in Australia
From 2 October 2026, most temporary visa holders will no longer be able to lodge a Student visa or Student Guardian visa application while in Australia.
This can also affect existing Student visa holders who want to apply for another Student visa.
However, exemptions apply in certain circumstances, including some students progressing to a higher AQF-level course, PhD students and other specified categories.
👨‍👩‍👧 2. Including your family
Student visa applicants generally can no longer include a partner or dependent children unless they fall within an exemption.
Importantly, once the Student visa has been granted, family members cannot later be added as subsequent entrants under the new settings.
Some exemptions at the time of application include eligible PhD students, DFAT or Defence-sponsored students, certain foreign-government scholarship recipients, and eligible students from Pacific and ASEAN countries.
🇮🇩 This means the ASEAN exemption may be particularly important for Indonesian students, subject to the applicable requirements.
📌 Applications lodged before 2 October 2026 continue to be assessed under the rules that applied when they were lodged.
These are significant changes, so don’t assume that the process for your next Student visa or your family will be the same as before.
👇 Comment “STUDENT” below and we’ll send you the full breakdown of the new Student visa changes.

🚨 189 Invitation Round Update: New Expected Timeframe 🇦🇺
Waiting for the next Skilled Independent, Subclass 189 invitation round?
The Department of Home Affairs now states:
📅 “The next invitation round for the Skilled Independent (subclass 189) visa is expected to be held by 31 October 2026.”
Previously, the expected timeframe was by 30 September 2026, but that date passed without a new invitation round being published.
The latest published 189 invitation round remains 4 June 2026, when 10,000 EOIs received invitations.
So if you currently have an EOI in SkillSelect:
✅ Make sure your EOI is up to date
✅ Check that your points claims are accurate
✅ Update any changes to your circumstances
✅ Keep monitoring your SkillSelect account
⚠️ Remember, “by 31 October” does not necessarily mean the round will happen exactly on 31 October. It means the round is currently expected to occur by that date.
👇 Comment “189” below and we’ll send you the full breakdown of the latest Subclass 189 invitation round updates.

🚨 Visa Refused or Cancelled Because of Character Issues? A New Ministerial Direction Is Coming. 🇦🇺
From 31 October 2026, a new Ministerial Direction, Ministerial Direction 123 (MD 123), will guide decision-makers when considering certain visa refusal, cancellation and revocation decisions under Section 501 of the Migration Act 1958.
MD 123 will replace Ministerial Direction 110.
So, what does this actually mean for visa holders? 👇
⚖️ WHAT IS SECTION 501?
Section 501 relates to Australia’s character requirements and provides powers to refuse or cancel visas in certain circumstances where a person does not satisfy the character test or other relevant requirements.
Character concerns can involve matters such as:
⚠️ Criminal or serious conduct
⚠️ Domestic and family violence
⚠️ Certain associations
⚠️ Other conduct relevant to the character test
Importantly, Section 501 cases can be complex and the outcome depends on the individual circumstances.
📌 WHAT DOES MD 123 DO?
MD 123 provides guidance to relevant decision-makers when considering certain decisions involving:
❌ Visa refusal
❌ Visa cancellation
🔄 Revocation of a mandatory visa cancellation
Under MD 123, there are four primary considerations:
1️⃣ Protection of the Australian community
2️⃣ Conduct constituting domestic and family violence
3️⃣ Expectations of the Australian community
4️⃣ Best interests of minor children in Australia
These considerations can play an important role when determining whether a person should be allowed to obtain or retain a visa.
🇦🇺 WHAT ABOUT YOUR TIES TO AUSTRALIA?
One notable change relates to how a person’s connections to Australia are considered.
Under the previous direction, certain ties to Australia were addressed as a primary consideration.
Under MD 123, matters including the strength, nature and duration of a person’s ties to Australia are dealt with under the “other considerations” section rather than the primary considerations.
That does not mean your ties to Australia are automatically irrelevant. They may still form part of the assessment, but within a different part of the decision-making framework.
👀 WHO SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO MD 123?
This change may be particularly relevant if you:
• Have received a Section 501 visa refusal or cancellation
• Are facing potential character-related visa cancellation
• Have had a mandatory visa cancellation and are seeking revocation
• Have received correspondence from Home Affairs concerning character issues
📅 MD 123 commences on 31 October 2026.
Character-related visa matters can involve strict procedures and timeframes, so understanding the specific decision and options available in your circumstances can be important.
👇 Comment “501/Character” below and we’ll send you the full breakdown of Section 501 and character-related visa cancellations.

🇦🇺 Can You Apply for Australian PR from Overseas?
Yes, depending on the visa pathway and your circumstances, you may be able to pursue Australian permanent residency whether you are currently in Australia (onshore) or outside Australia (offshore).
But being offshore doesn’t necessarily mean the process will be the same.
For skilled migration pathways, onshore and offshore applicants may face different:
🔹 Occupation eligibility
🔹 State or territory nomination requirements
🔹 Priority categories
🔹 Invitation rounds and selection thresholds
🔹 Application pathways
This can be particularly important for Subclass 190 (Skilled Nominated) and Subclass 491 (Skilled Work Regional) visas, as each state and territory sets its own nomination criteria and may treat onshore and offshore applicants differently.
📌 And remember: being eligible to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) does not guarantee that you will receive an invitation.
If you’re currently overseas and considering Australian PR — or you’re already in Australia and deciding on your next step — understanding which pathway fits your circumstances is important before making a decision.

🚨 AUSTRALIA HAS CHANGED ITS SKILLED VISA PROCESSING PRIORITIES 🇦🇺
From 19 September 2026, Ministerial Direction 119 has been replaced by two new directions, Ministerial Direction 121 and Ministerial Direction 122.
These directions determine how the Department of Home Affairs prioritises the processing of a range of skilled and employer-sponsored visa applications.
So, if you have already lodged a skilled visa, or you’re preparing to lodge one, here’s what you need to know. 👇
🔹 MINISTERIAL DIRECTION 121 — SUBCLASS 482
Ministerial Direction 121 applies specifically to the Skills in Demand Visa, Subclass 482.
Applications are generally prioritised in the following order:
1️⃣ Applications involving priority occupations and sectors
2️⃣ Specialist Skills stream applications
3️⃣ Other applicants who lodged onshore
4️⃣ Other applicants who lodged offshore and whose application was not combined with another application
5️⃣ All remaining applications
This means your occupation, stream and where you were when you lodged your application can affect its processing priority.
🔹 MINISTERIAL DIRECTION 122 — OTHER SKILLED VISAS
Ministerial Direction 122 applies to several other skilled and employer-sponsored visas, including:
🇦🇺 Subclass 186 — Employer Nomination Scheme
🇦🇺 Subclass 189 — Skilled Independent
🇦🇺 Subclass 190 — Skilled Nominated
🇦🇺 Subclass 191 — Permanent Residence (Skilled Regional)
🇦🇺 Subclass 491 — Skilled Work Regional (Provisional)
🇦🇺 Subclass 494 — Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional)
Under Ministerial Direction 122, applications are generally prioritised as:
1️⃣ Priority occupations and sectors
2️⃣ Other applicants who lodged onshore
3️⃣ Other applicants who lodged offshore and whose application was not combined
4️⃣ All remaining applications
📌 SO, WHICH OCCUPATIONS RECEIVE HIGHER PRIORITY?
The new processing directions give priority to applications connected with occupations and sectors including:
🏗️ Construction
🩺 Healthcare
👩‍🏫 Teaching
🌾 Agriculture
🐟 Aquaculture and Fishing
⛏️ Resources
🛡️ Law Enforcement and Defence
Importantly, this priority can apply whether the primary applicant lodged the relevant visa onshore or offshore.
📌 WHAT IF YOU LODGED BEFORE 19 SEPTEMBER 2026?
The changes are not necessarily limited to new applications.
If you lodged an affected visa before 19 September 2026 and Home Affairs had not made a final decision by that date, the new processing priorities may apply to your application.
⚠️ WHAT DOES “PRIORITY” ACTUALLY MEAN?
Being in a priority occupation or category does not mean your visa will automatically be approved.
It also does not guarantee that Home Affairs will decide your application within a specific number of days or months.
The directions determine the order in which applications are given processing priority. You still need to satisfy all applicable requirements for your visa.
So, if you’re applying for a 482, 186, 189, 190, 191, 491 or 494 visa, it may be worth checking:
🔎 Whether your occupation falls within one of the priority categories
📍 Whether you lodged your application onshore or offshore
📄 Whether Ministerial Direction 121 or 122 applies to your visa
💼 For Subclass 482, which Skills in Demand stream applies to you
📅 If you already lodged, whether your application was still undecided on 19 September 2026
The introduction of Ministerial Directions 121 and 122 doesn’t change whether you meet the eligibility requirements for a visa, but it can affect where your application sits within Home Affairs’ processing priorities.
👇 Comment “PRIORITY” below and we’ll send you the full breakdown of the new skilled visa processing priorities.

📚 Considering changing your course or qualification level in Australia
🌏 A Working Holiday Maker planning your 2nd or 3rd year
