Supporting Your Loved Ones in Their Educational Journey: The Subclass 590 Student Guardian Visa

Education is a significant milestone in every student's life, and the Subclass 590 Student Guardian visa enables parents and guardians to be part of this important journey. Designed for parents, custodians, or eligible relatives, this visa allows you to provide care and support for a student visa holder during their time in Australia. Below, we explore everything you need to know about this temporary visa, from its purpose to the application process and eligibility criteria.

What is the Subclass 590 Student Guardian Visa?

The Subclass 590 visa is a temporary visa that permits a parent, legal custodian, or relative to live in Australia and support a student visa holder. It is particularly valuable for guardians of students under 18 or those with exceptional circumstances requiring continued care.

This visa not only enables you to provide accommodation and welfare but also ensures that students have a strong support system during their academic pursuits in a new country.

Key Features of the Visa

With this visa, you can:

  • Stay in Australia for the duration of the student visa holder’s stay, subject to their age and study period.

  • Provide care, accommodation, and welfare for a student visa holder.

  • Support the student in their educational and personal journey.

It is essential to understand that this is a temporary visa, and the duration of your stay is determined by the student’s visa and age.

Eligibility Criteria

To apply for this visa, you must meet the following requirements:

  • You must be the student’s parent, custodian, or a relative who is at least 21 years old.

  • Demonstrate that you have sufficient funds to support yourself and the student during your stay in Australia.

  • Hold adequate health insurance for the duration of your stay.

  • Be able to provide accommodation and other necessary support for the student.

  • If applying from within Australia, you must hold an eligible substantive visa.

Important Rule Changes for Onshore Applications

Recent rule changes affect applicants lodging a Student visa or Student Guardian visa from within Australia. If you hold a Visitor visa, Temporary Graduate visa, or Maritime Crew visa, you are no longer eligible to apply for this visa while in Australia. Ensure you review the updated eligibility criteria before proceeding with your application.
