There are more than 400,000 foreign students studying in Australia from countries such as China, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Korea, United States, United Kingdom, Brazil, Japan, Sri Lanka and Saudi Arabia.
Student visas for Australia are initially granted with a “No Work” condition but you can apply for permission to work once your course has started.
If you take on a part-time job to help fund your study and life in Australia, you'll start paying 15.5% income tax on your earnings.

We can also give you your tax refund upfront - no need to wait for the tax office to process your Australian tax return. Our customers get an average tax refund of AU$2500 from Australia.

If you earn more than AU$450 a month in Oz your employer will pay money into a superannuation fund on your behalf. If you leave Australia permanently, we can get that back for you as well. Our average Australian superannuation refund is between AU$600 and $5000.

Non-resident foreign students who work and earn income in Australia are required by law to file a tax return. You may want to return to Australia in the future so it's important to have your tax affairs in order. All residents and citizens in Australia are required to file a tax return if they earn more than $6000 in the tax year.
