Part-time work
Working while you study can be a great way to support yourself
financially while providing valuable work experience and life skills.
If you are in Australia on a student visa, you may apply for work rights
after your arrival. Once you have been granted a work rights visa,
you are permitted to work 20 hours per week during study periods and
full-time during holiday periods.
You will also need to obtain an Australian Tax File Number. You can obtain further details from the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) (link opens in a new browser window).
