Courses with a pathway to PR

Trade and university courses that align with skilled migration.

Overview

About this visa

The right course can be the first step to post-study work rights and, ultimately, skilled migration - but not every course leads there, so choosing well is important.

We help you identify trade and university courses that align with in-demand occupations, whether that is a trade qualification, nursing, engineering, IT or teaching.

We keep the advice realistic: migration outcomes depend on your occupation, your points and current policy, and we will always give you an honest view of the prospects.

This may suit you if

  • You want study to lead to migration
  • You are choosing between courses
  • You want to align study with skilled lists
  • You want an honest view of your prospects

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

Can I work while I study?
Most student visas allow limited work during your course and often more during breaks, and your accompanying partner may also have work rights. We confirm the current conditions for your visa and course.
Can studying lead to permanent residency?
It can. The right qualification can lead to post-study work rights and then skilled migration, but outcomes depend on your occupation, points and current policy. We plan your course choice with the PR goal in mind while keeping expectations realistic.
How long will my application take?
Processing times vary by visa type and change regularly, and they depend on your documents and personal circumstances. We give you a realistic, up-to-date estimate for your situation and keep you informed while the case is assessed.
Can I include my family?
Many visas let you include a partner and dependent children, either together with your application or by adding them later. We confirm exactly who you can include and prepare their documents alongside yours.
Do I have to visit your office in Jalandhar?
No. We work with clients across India and around the world. Your case can be handled entirely by phone, email and video call if that is easier for you.
