Ik denk dat je onduidelijkheid blijft houden in jouw geval: (ps dit gaat om GSM visa's, maar de opmerking kan gezien worden als geldend voor alles..)
International students should not make educational
choices solely on the basis of hoping to achieve a
particular migration outcome. The GSM program will
continue to change and adapt to Australia’s economic
needs.
People who wish to study in Australia may be granted a
student visa that entitles them to come to Australia on
a temporary basis for a specified period to undertake
study at an Australian educational institution. While
many overseas students make a decision to apply for
permanent residence upon completing their studies, this
is an entirely separate process and there is no guarantee
that, on the basis of having held a student visa, a person
will meet the requirements to be granted permanent
residence.
It is important to note that student visas are aimed at
achieving an educational outcome. GSM on the other
hand is predominantly driven by the labour market
needs of Australia.
The criteria for grant of GSM visas can change in
response to the changing economic circumstances
of Australia. All applicants seeking to be granted a
permanent GSM visa must meet the relevant criteria set
out in the migration legislation, regardless of whether or
not they have previously been in Australia. It is important
for student visa holders to note that any changes to the
criteria for the grant of a GSM visa.
