Work in Australia

No tourist visas, whether granted overseas or in Australia, allow employment. But: student visas do allow employment if you study for a minimum of 25 hours per week! Therefore, many people from all over the world wishing to work in Australia decide on working and studying at the same time - and thus gain work permission in Australia! If you study for a period of over 12 weeks you must enter Australia on a Student Visa, and must study for a minimum of 25 hours per week.
