Student visa holders in Australia must adhere to specific work restrictions to maintain their visa status and prioritize their education. Under the latest regulations from the Department of Home Affairs, students are generally allowed to work a maximum of 48 hours per fortnight during the semester. However, students can work unlimited hours during recognized breaks or holidays, such as semester breaks.

It’s essential for student visa holders to stay updated on any changes to these work limitations, as non-compliance can result in visa cancellations or other penalties. Understanding and respecting these work restrictions ensures that you can focus on your studies while also earning extra income legally. Always check the latest guidelines provided by the Department of Home Affairs or seek advice from a registered migration agent if you're unsure of your work rights.
