INTACT Migration Services

Thinking about applying for the Training visa (subclass 407)? There’s been an important change you need to know about.

👉 You must now have an approved nomination BEFORE you lodge your visa application.

Make sure your sponsor gets your nomination submitted and approved first.

If your sponsor is an Australian Commonwealth Government agency, a nomination is not required. However, your sponsor must be approved as a temporary activities sponsor before you lodge your visa application.

Australia Student Visa Update: What Assessment Level 3 REALLY Means for Nepali Students

If you’re a Nepali student planning to study in Australia, you may have heard that Nepal is now classified as Assessment Level 3.

So… what does this actually mean for you?

🔍 1. Your application will be checked more closely

The Australian Department of Home Affairs will carefully review every document you submit. Inconsistencies, missing papers, or unclear explanations can lead to delays or refusals.

💰 2. Strong financial evidence is critical

You must clearly prove you can afford:

✔️ Tuition fees
✔️ Living expenses
✔️ Travel and other costs

This usually means long-term bank statements, income sources, and sponsor evidence, not just a balance snapshot.

✍️ 3. Genuine Student (GSR) statement matters more than ever

You must clearly explain:
✔️ Why you chose Australia
✔️ Why this course fits your education and career goals
✔️ Your intention after completing your studies

A weak or copied GSR can seriously harm your application.

⏳ 4. Processing times may be longer

Because of higher scrutiny, visa decisions can take more time. Early preparation is essential.

⚠️ 5. Mistakes carry higher risk

Under Assessment Level 3, even small errors can result in:
❌ Requests for more documents
❌ Delays
❌ Visa refusal

✅ The good news

Nepali students are still welcome in Australia.

Assessment Level 3 simply means you must apply honestly, carefully, and with strong preparation.

That’s where Intact Migration comes in, providing expert guidance, ethical support, and clear direction to help students apply with confidence 🎓
