Can Nursing Students Work Part-Time in Australia? 🎓🇦🇺

Yes — nursing students can generally work part-time in Australia if their Student visa permits work.

🔹 Key points from this guide:
⏰ Generally up to 48 hours per fortnight while your course is in session
🏖️ Generally unlimited hours during scheduled course breaks
💼 Hours from multiple jobs are combined when applying the work limit
🏥 Mandatory registered clinical placement may be excluded from the work limit, depending on the placement
⚠️ Nursing students cannot work or present themselves as registered nurses without the appropriate registration
📋 Study, attendance and satisfactory course progress must remain a priority

Graduating from a nursing course can open further options, but nursing study, registration or part-time work does not automatically guarantee a Temporary Graduate visa, PR or another visa pathway.

Always check your individual visa conditions through VEVO before working.

🚨 Major Update – Check Your Migration Agent Before Paying For Advice 🚨

Choosing the right migration professional is an important part of your Australian visa journey. Always verify who is providing your migration advice.

✅ Ask for the agent's Migration Agent Registration Number (MARN).

✅ Check their registration on the official OMARA Register.

✅ Confirm that their registration is current before engaging them.

✅ Be cautious of anyone who guarantees a visa or permanent residency outcome.

💡 Take a few minutes to verify registration before paying for migration advice. It can help you make a more informed decision about who you trust with your visa matter.
