This visa is intended for applicants who have had a successful background as Senior Executives employees in large overseas businesses, who have significant assets and a genuine and realistic commitment to participate in the management of a new or established business in Australia.  This business visa will allow the holder to establish or purchase a business in Australia.

The requirements of the subclass 164 State sponsored Senior Executive visa are that an applicant must:-

  • be less than 55 years or propose to participate in a business activity which will be of exceptional economic benefit to the State
  • For 2 out of the last 4 financial years, have occupied a position in the top 3 levels of management in a business with annual turnover of at least A$10,000,000
  • net asset level is at least A$250,000 plus an additional amount for your settlement costs in Australia
  • State sponsorship approval (based on proposing to own and operate a suitable Australian business)

This visa recognizes that experienced senior executives do have the skills and background to go on to own and operate a successful business in their own right.

Anyway, Betty wanted to study at Tafe but was wondering if as a sub class 163 visa holder she would be classed as an international student and whether the fees would be higher because of this.

I advised her that as she was the holder of a provisional sub class 163 business visa, a temporary visa in effect, she would be deemed as an international student for the purpose of Australian tertiary study.  International students fees are significantly higher than domestic fees.  The promotion of Australian education to overseas student is big business bringing millions of dollars of revenue to universities and colleges throughout the country.  Only Australian permanent resident visa holders are entitled to pay domestic student fees to Ausralian education bodies like Tafe.

As a basic rule most provisional or temporary skilled or busiess migrant visa holders would be classified as international students if they wish to study for a post secondary qualification at an Australian college or university.
