Age reduction for temporary graduate visa (485) is the biggest and the worst decision in this new migration strategy. Not only phd and masters by research but also masters by coursework students also find difficulty to align with this new age limit. Masters or phd students first need to complete their bachelor in order to qualify for post graduate studies so it’s not fair setting one age limit for graduate and post graduate students. My idea is its better to limit 32 for applying tgv for after bachelor completion , 37 for masters by coursework and 42 for masters by research and phd. Which is again align with government plan to create pathway to permanent residency which you can apply until 45. I hope these changes will be made which is good for students and international education and the australian society as well.

Coursework-based master's aren't just for the fresh grads. Many of us, already seasoned by work life post-bachelor's, find ourselves starting these courses over 35.

Frankly international students should not be bashed by this government. The groups of people that are causing housing crisis and the rest of the issues are on bridging visa initially came here on visitor’s visa and those on short term skill shortage have exhausted the system. Yes we have a good bunch of unscrupulous students that are hoping visas but they are not entirely the cause of the problem.

Hi Carl, for longer vids I think timestamps would be really nice 😊

These changes should not apply for onshore students who arrived to Australia before this announcement as those students were promised to be granted graduate visa upon completion of post graduate studies. To make these changes fair please don't include the onshore students especially for age restriction

Carl, you forgot to mention Indonesia in the chapter of "Making it easier for Southeast Asian business and eminent people to travel to Australia" 😄
