Dear Registered Migration Agent

The following information is provided by Student Visa Policy Section for Registered Migration Agents only. This information is not for external distribution or publication.

Overseas penal clearance

The department no longer requires all applicants for the Temporary Graduate (Subclass 485) visa to provide overseas police certificates from each country they have lived in for 12 months or more during the past 10 years after turning 16 years of age. Applicants will only need to provide overseas police certificates for Temporary Graduate (Subclass 485) visa applications if they are requested by the department.

The department's website will be updated in due course to reflect this change.

Australian Federal Police checks

There is no change to the requirements in relation to Australian Federal Police (AFP) checks.

Applications currently with the department

If you have previously been asked by the department to provide overseas police certificates for particular applications please continue to provide these unless the department specifically advises you not to.

Further information

Please complete the registered migration agents enquiry and feedback form if you have any questions about these changes.
