What is Assessment Level 2 for Australia Student Visa?

The Australian Department of Home Affairs has shifted India from Level 3 to Level 2 in 2025. This reduces upfront documentation but does not remove the funds requirement.

At Sunland Education & Immigration Consultants, we guide students on preparing a strong file that meets every updated requirement.

Financial Requirements for Australia Student Visa 2025

  • Living Expenses: AUD 29,710 per year
  • Tuition Fees: AUD 20,000–50,000 per year (depending on course)
  • OSHC (Health Insurance): AUD 500–700 per year
  • Travel Costs: Around AUD 2,000
  • Accommodation: AUD 200–400 per week
  • Food & Utilities: AUD 150–250 per week

According to Sunland Education & Immigration Consultants, Indian students must show approx. ₹37–40 lakhs INR for one year including tuition + living + travel.

Do Students Still Need to Show Funds at Level 2?

Yes The High Commission can still ask for financial capacity evidence.

  • Bank statements
  • Fixed deposits (FDRs)
  • Education loan approvals
  • Income documents of parents/sponsors

Sunland Education & Immigration Consultants recommend preparing all financial documents in advance to avoid last-minute refusal.

GTE (Genuine Temporary Entrant) – Still Compulsory

Even under Level 2, a GTE statement is mandatory. Students must show they are genuine and intend to return after studies.

At Sunland Education & Immigration Consultants, we help students write professional and personalized GTE statements that strengthen their visa application.

Common Mistakes in Australia Student Visa Applications

  • Thinking Level 2 means no funds needed
  • Submitting incomplete bank or loan papers
  • Copying GTE statements from the internet
  • Ignoring OSHC (health cover) requirement

Sunland Education & Immigration Consultants warn students not to fall into these traps.
